Ugh… I should DNF this… it’s so boring. Never thought a Goddess of Death could be so ordinary, boring, and lack reasonable brain cells.
the dialogue and narrative from our characters feels very juvenile and lame. Not the way I imagine a Goddess who’s lived thousands of years to sound. Especially one who collected souls… where’s her introspective? Where’s her musing? Where’s the dark gothic mood?

This is starting to lag a bit for me… just not engaging or capturing my attention like it did at first…

A goddess who becomes a human equals whiny! I get it she's never had aches, pains, limitations like humans do but goodness am I getting weary of it all. I realize it's about her emotional journey to understand why humans make the decisions they do or act in ways that may seem irrational. I know it will culminate into a lesson learned; but it's just a little bit painful right now.

The character of Death always intrigues me whenever we encounter them. Regardless of how they are portrayed it seems we focus on their job (collecting souls usually) more than anything. I’m intrigued by the premise so far…
