Why read it?
1 author picked Death as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
This is a post-apocalyptic first world fantasy that was so, so dark it scared my friends.
I loved every book in the series, but Death has a special place in my heart for that dark-winged angel boyfriend.
The unique part of Death too was that in all the other books of the series, the girls are the horseman’s captive, but in this one, she hunts him back.
It makes for a thrilling enemies to lovers moment when we realize just how much Death has fallen for this girl who pursues and murders him frequently.
Seriously, be warned. This series…
From J.D.'s list on dark romantasy with winged book boyfriends.
