Anotace

There’s no way sixteen year old Quincy Amarante will become the fifth grim reaper. None. Not over her shiny blue Mustang. Her Jimmy Choos. Or her dead body. She’s supposed to enjoy her sophomore year, not learn about some freaky future Destiny says she has no choice but to fulfill. It doesn’t take long for Quincy to realize the only way out of the game is to play along especially since Death can find her anyway, anywhere, anytime. And does.

Like when she’s reassuring her friends she wants nothing to do with former best friend Ben Moorland, who’s returned from god-knows-where, and fails. Miserably.

Instead of maintaining her coveted popularity status, Quincy’s goes down like the Titanic.

Maybe … just maybe … that’s okay.

It seems, perhaps, becoming a grim reaper isn’t just about the dead but more about a much needed shift in Quincy’s priorities—from who she thinks she wants to be to who she really is.

Proč jsem si tuhle knížku vybrala? Protože si myslím, že má hodně zajímavý námět a je to něco, co jsem ještě nečetla. Ano, já normálně tenhle žánr nečtu, ale nevidím důvod, proč se stále držet zajetých kolejí. Není na škodu trochu si rozšířit obzory a přečíst si něco tak odlišného. A třeba se mi to bude líbit. Doufám :-)
