When Kaylee Cavanaugh screams, someone dies.

So when teen pop star Eden croaks onstage and Kaylee doesn’t wail, she knows something is dead wrong. She can’t cry for someone who has no soul.

The last thing Kaylee needs right now is to be skipping school, breaking her dad’s ironclad curfew and putting her too-hot-to-be-real boyfriend’s loyalty to the test. But starry-eyed teens are trading their souls: a flickering lifetime of fame and fortune in exchange for eternity in the Netherworld—a consequence they can’t possibly understand.

Kaylee can’t let that happen, even if trying to save their souls means putting her own at risk...

My Soul to Take was a total shock to me because I never expected it to be good - it was overhyped and marketted to Twilight fans like every other book released around that time - but it was awesome. So I expected the same level of awesome from this, the second book. And while it wasn't quite as good, and I didn't love it as much, I still really enjoyed it. 

These books are emotional and creepy, dark with a comic lightness, and Nash is super hot. The story is completely unique and I loved the look into the Netherworld we got, but I didn't connect with or care about Addison so I wasn't really invested in the story. WHICH makes me thing I will love the next book much more because it's about Nash and I will literally flip at any danger posed to him. (Should be fun.)
