Sixteen-year-old Zadie’s first mistake was telling the boy she liked she could bring her dead sister back to life. Her second mistake was actually doing it.

When Zadie accidentally messes with the Reaper’s Rite that should have claimed her sister Mara, things go horribly wrong. Mara isn’t the same anymore—Zadie isn’t even sure she’s completely human, and to top it off, a Reaper is determined to collect Mara’s soul no matter what. Now Zadie must figure out how to defeat her sister’s Reaper, or let Mara die … this time for good.

When dark forces lure Zadie to wander at night, she's manipulated into committing unspeakable acts. With her friends and family at risk, Zadie must try to use her powers to break free from the Reaper's grasp, or surrender to the Reaper's Rite, which can only lead to death.

Naomi drew a line in the playground sand with her sneaker. “Are you guys all in? Because once you cross this line, there’s no turning back.”

Naomi could be dramatic like that.

She crossed her arms and waited. Danny stepped over the line, hands in his pockets, face stoic. Gavin seemed to glide over it. I followed him less gracefully. When he turned to me, I couldn’t stop staring at his eyes, shining like blue fire in the twilight.

“Good,” Naomi said. “We’re now entering stealth mode. Let’s go.”

She led the way up the sidewalk. Gavin walked by my side, while Danny trailed behind. At first, no one spoke. When we’d gone half a block, Gavin turned to Danny.

“Dude, did you bring flashlights?” Gavin slowed and fell into step with him.

“I brought a flashlight,” Danny said.

“I told you to bring two.”

“No, you didn’t. You asked if I had a flashlight.”

“I asked if you had an extra flashlight,” Gavin insisted.

“You never said ‘extra.’”

“Well, it’s obvious that’s what I meant.”

“It wasn’t obvious. The only thing that’s obvious is that you don’t get a flashlight.”

Naomi grunted, stopping in her tracks and facing us. “Oh my God, do you not know what ‘stealth mode’ means?”

Danny and Gavin muttered apologies. Naomi spun around and continued walking.

“Great,” Gavin whispered. “Not only did you forget to bring me a flashlight, but you also got me in trouble with Mom.”

Naomi glared at him over her shoulder. “If the police show up, I’m using you as a shield.”

My Sister's Reaper is a young adult fantasy/paranormal novel that follows teenage main character Zadie as she attempts to clean up the mess she created when she brought her dead sister back to life. Zadie messed with the Reaper's Rite - the one that should have claimed her sister Mara. Now her sister is alive, but not the same, and that might be worse. On top of that mess, the Reaper in charge of Mara is determined to claim her no matter what - and now Zadie has to figure out a way to defeat it before it claims her sister for good this time.

This was a really original and zany novel that was a really fun read. Zadie is a typical teenage girl and her character definitely reflects that. Although she has to deal with pissing off a Reaper and bringing her sister back from the dead, Zadie also has to face ordinary issues that teens deal with - like crushes, school, and friends. She is a very likeable character and I immediately connected with her. The plot was really unique and I loved the fresh spin the author put on the Reaper topic. It was zany and fun - even a bit campy at times - and I loved it. It was a creepy story that was definitely livened up with fun dialogue and snarky commentary from Zadie. The writing was well done, if a bit awkward at times, and it had a great flow and fast pace that had me flying through the pages. This book isn't for everyone, but I highly recommend it to those who love YA paranormal fiction with a weird and funny twist on things.
