After the death of her mother, Wendy learns that she is part of a powerful and ancient family of Reapers. She has only a matter of days to unravel the mysteries her mother left behind and to convince her wary family to accept her as one of their own.

My thoughts:

Triple Wow! Reaper is the sequel to Lightbringer, a book my teenage daughter introduced me to a couple months ago. If you’ve not read the first book you may want to hold off on reading this review and instead go buy the book. Right now. Seriously.

Lightbringer introduces us to Wendy, Piotr (Polish version of Peter) and his gang of Lost children. Sound familiar? K.D. McEntire’s modern day Peter Pan reveals a world just beyond our own where spirits and monsters dwell until they go into the light. I loved Lightbringer most for its originality.

In Reaper, McEntire, takes the game to a whole new level. Gone are the kid gloves. The world her characters knew is changing and now everyone is in danger.  There were so many OMG moments in this book, from backstory reveals to betrayals and discoveries. You think you have a grasp on a character or relationship and then BAM, the story evolves right before your eyes. It’s refreshing to read a book that doesn’t give up all its secrets from the start.

When I asked my daughter what she thought of Reaper, this was her response: “I need the next book. NOW!” Yep. That about sums it up for me too.
