Lex craned her neck and spotted a handful of oddly named stores: a flower shop called PUSHING DAISIES, a mattress place labeled THE BIG SLEEP, and a grocery store with a giant sign reading BOUGHT THE FARM. I particuarly like that the Grimms helpers were called Excetras and the death puns in town of Croak. (They’re named after civil war battles Lexinton and Concord.) I wanted to see more of the relationship between the sisters, but Cordy wasn’t in the book much. (Sorry a guy shouldn’t hit a girl even if she hit him first. The romance didn’t really do anything for me, but it wasn’t bad if you excuse Lex’s personality and briefly his.
The only one I really liked was her crazy inventing Uncle Mort.
She hit, stabed, bit, and caused harm to basically everyone around her! I know she was supposed to be a delinquent, but it was a bit much.Īll of the characters (other than Lex) were fine. In real life she’d have been kicked out of school a long time ago. She’s mean! I think it would help if you pretend she’s a villain. I liked the book, but disliked the main character. Her parents fed up with her antics send her to her uncle Mort’s farm for the summer.īut it turns out Uncle Mort isn’t a farmer, he’s a Grim Reaper and so is Lex.
Warnings: Child abuse (most of the Juniors suffered some sort of abuse in their pasts and they have the scars to show for it) Predictability: 4 out of 5 (Where 1 is totally unpredictable and 5 is I knew what was going to happen way ahead of time.) Genre: Young Adult, Fantasy, Grim Reapers
