The Keeper of Night

The Keeper of Night, Book 1

By: Kylie Baker

Narrated by: Rebecca Yeo

Half British Reaper, half Japanese Shinigami, Ren Scarborough has been collecting souls in the London streets for centuries. Expected to obey the harsh hierarchy of the Reapers who despise her, Ren conceals her emotions and avoids her tormentors as best she can. When her failure to control her Shinigami abilities drives Ren out of London, she flees to Japan to seek the acceptance she’s never gotten from her fellow Reapers.

Accompanied by her younger brother, the only being on earth who cares for her, Ren enters the Japanese underworld to serve the Goddess of Death...only to learn that here, too, she must prove herself worthy. Determined to earn respect, Ren accepts an impossible task - find and eliminate three dangerous Yokai demons - and learns how far she’ll go to claim her place at Death’s side.

the story! No good or bad loved loved loved it! It was scary and had love in it and fafantasy! Great story . Ready to read the 2 and book.

Intriguing from cover to cover

I bought this book from the Amazon book store at the local mall I frequent. It was a decent size book and a perfect starter to get back into reading. And I was captivated by the first 3 chapters. With a ravenous curiosity, I finished the entire book in 3 days time. I got the audiobook now to relive the experience, and I was not disappointed. Can’t wait for the next and final book to be released.

ehhh

it was all right definitely really slow going but the twist and turns were pretty good

Amazing!

The writing is beautiful and the narrator really brings the story to life. This isn't my typical read but I saw a TikTok of a girl sitting in her driveway crying after she finished it and knew I had to listen to it. While I didn't end up in my driveway crying, the ending is a heart wrenching way to wrap up the story that will make you feel all the emotions. I do like that the story is wrapped up at the end of this book and if there was never another book, you would be at peace with that but I'm so looking forward to her new novel being released in October! Absolute masterpiece in my opinion and a must read!
