The Grim Reaper's Lawyer

Life After Death, Book 1

By: Mea Monique

Narrated by: Julienne Irons

When having to decide between spending her afterlife in hell or as the Grim Reaper's Lawyer, it's not even a hard choice for Joyce Parker. Of course she'd choose hell.

Joyce thought her prayers were finally answered when her client killed her. Yes, she knows, it's morbid. But, so is being a lawyer. Now dead, Joyce thought it was blue skies, angel wings, mimosas, and Jesus. Well, she was embarrassingly wrong. The insufferable, but good-looking Grim Reaper needs a favor. He needs her to represent him in the newly formed Reaper's Court. That is, of course, if she wants to go to heaven rather than to hell, which is exactly where she was heading.

What starts off as a favor turns into a whirlwind of chaos with Joyce and the Grim Reaper being in the center of it all. Not only does Joyce have to help the grumpy Reaper, but she also has to save the whole Afterworld-a job she most definitely did not sign up for. Joyce's life on earth was boring, but her afterlife ends up being the most alive she's ever felt. Trials, secrets, evil reapers, missing souls, traitors, stolen mimosas, and unexpected romance-all the elements for one hell (literally) of a life after death.

Contains mature themes.

Awesome

Very good contrast of voices and the story line is to be as expected. Great book

Funny!

I love the characters, especially the main characters. They have a funny, but wonderful relationship. The other characters are a perfect mix to advance the plot.

ok ok ok

I see you girl. I liked the book. funny and fun to read. this character has a great sense of humor

Predicable and boring

The narrator was the WORST part. Other than that, it’s predictable until the very last moment. With the narration and the predictability, this was hard to get through.

Great plot, horrid narrator

This was recommended to me but so hard to get through, I definitely would have enjoyed it more in a physical book. The story line and plot were pretty great, but the voice just made this a difficult one.
