Beat the Reaper

Average rating3.7
This is a very fun book. The author employs such excellent pacing throughout the whole story that it always feels exciting when beginning a new chapter. The mob drama is all there too, complimented by the dashes of humor throughout the story.
The only reason why I give it 4.5/5 instead of a full score, is because there are certain parts of the story where the protagonist does something so incredibly strong and unlikely that I had a hard time imagining the scene in my head without it feeling silly. Additionally, there was also a point in which the pacing did feel a little strange. These are small gripes though, and it doesn't take that much away from the creative writing overall.
Genuinely a fun, thrilling and at times hilarious novel.

I read this book back in 2012 & just now... 12yr later. Enough time to not remember the details & feel just as "on-the-edge" as before.
I've preached about how cool this book is for the past 12yr, with incredible pacing, raw humor, & crazy situations. Reading it again, I only feel more strongly about why this is such a fantastic book!
For people who don't think they can enjoy reading (none of you on this app, of course), recommend this to your non-reading friends who enjoy action genres, crime, or just dark humor. You're welcome!
