Synopsis:
The day I turned 16, my boyfriend-to-be died. I brought him back to life. Then things got a little weird..."" " Molly Bartolucci wants to blend in, date hottie Rick and keep her zombie-raising abilities on the down-low. Then the god Anubis chooses her to become a reaper-and she accidentally undoes the work of another reaper, Rath. Within days, she's shipped off to the Nekyia Academy, an elite school that trains the best necromancers in the world. And her personal reaping tutor? Rath. Who seems to hate her guts.
Rath will be watching closely to be sure she completes her first assignment-reaping Rick, the boy who should have died. The boy she still wants to be with.To make matters worse, students at the academy start turning up catatonic, and accusations fly-against Molly. The only way out of this mess? To go through hell. Literally

My Thoughts:
I've been going through a bit of a reaper phase, I'm not even sure how/why it started but I am definitely digging them at the moment. The fact that Molly is a reaper instantly hooked me. Then to find out she goes to boarding school, double hooked. Then came the icing on the cake Rath. I love me some mentor/student relationships so I am not so patiently waiting on this one!
This one sounds great. It's on my wishlist too. Awesome choice! :)
ReplyDeleteReapers are awesome. This book sounds like Vampire Academy and Soul Screamers got together and had a baby, so I will have to read it.

I love reapers too! I featured this one a looong time ago and the release date got pushed back. I have been dying for this one forever! I also love boarding school books!
ReplyDeleteMy WOW
If you're going through the reaper phase, then I'm going through the zombie phase :/ I've been reading something strange and deadly and I'm now totally hooked up with anything that's literally dead!
ReplyDeleteThis sounds like an amazing one ;)

Great pick Emily. I can't wait for this one either. I love books that are based around boarding schools and I'm looking forward to meeting Rath too :)

Oh cool. The description reminds me of Hex Hall actually, but instead of a demon she's a necromancer and the Rath guy sounds like a yummy plotline too. Thanks for sharing, I hadn't heard of it!
ReplyDeleteOooh this sounds like a read I'd like!
