NAMED BY THE NEW YORK TIMES AS ONE OF THE 10 BEST ROMANCES OF 2023: "A weird, adorable stunner of a romance."
"[A] thought-provoking, wonder-filled celebration of the circle of life." --Publishers Weekly Starred Review
Death needs a do-over.
Azrael---grim reaper and devourer of worlds--has messed up. Instead of taking Molly Molloy's soul, he patted her on the back and saved her from choking on an atomic chicken wing.
Now she can see him. Talk to him. Touch him. Say ‘no’ to him. And make him question the assumptions he has held for an eternity.
Molly is sick of Death capsizing her life. He'd taken her parents, then her grandparents, then her first great love.
Now, just as she was on the verge of getting her life together with a job that paid enough and a NYC apartment that didn't cost too much, Death interferes again in ways she could never have imagined.
The Powers that Be want Azrael to fix his mistake but before he can, Death makes one more.
He falls in love.
