About this listen

It’s never a good combo to be broke and desperate. You do stupid things. Like accidentally sign your soul over to hell.

When I interviewed for a new security job, I didn’t bat an eye that it was for a literal graveyard shift...headstones and all. I mean, at the hourly rate they were offering, who cares? I got this.

Turns out, I’m not guarding a graveyard like I thought. It seems I’ve just walked my broke ass into protecting a gate to hell. Yeah...I don’t got this.

Now I’m stuck in a terrifying new reality: a group of hot demons who act like I can solve all their problems, and a battle between good, evil, and balance.

This will seriously teach me to read the fine print on help wanted ads. Good thing this job comes with a scythe. Maybe I can use it to stop them from dragging my ass into hell.

Not sure what they are complaining about

I think the inner monologue is great. The story progressed nicely with interesting twists. It lays a great foundation for the series and makes you want to hear the next one.

I only wish the narrator did a better job of changing voices as at times I didn't realise who was speaking until after context was added to the sentence. I recognise that this is challenging when all the other main characters are men, but I have listened to many audiobooks where the narrator has done a fantastic job at this, and I wish they were all that quality. Good job, though 😊

***Grave Mistakes***

It's another good book from both amazing writers but the narrator let's it down, Emma is perfect as Delta but crappy as the voice of the men, there was no difference in her portrayal they all sounds the same so yeah sorry Emma but u need a more masculine voice. I can't get into the sexy scene because the male voices sounded like females. but the story is awesome.

So keen for more.

I was very excited to listen to this as the synopsis sounded epic but only had a 2.8 rating at the time I purchased it. To be honest I can understand why it had such a low rating but I still thoroughly enjoyed it.
Having a female lead that honestly saw that she wasn't ready and took a decent amount of time to sit with the prospect of her world turning on end before deciding what to do next was refreshing. Her ogling while frequent actually wasnt extreme or over done. I found it had good balance between steamy, humorous and relationship development.
The men were also refreshing. Instead of being cliche torchered souls or emotionally immature macho men, they are flirty and bashful, kind and hot tempered, playful and serious, layered and realistic people who I wouldn't be surprised to meet walking the condiments aisle of the supermarket.
The over excess of movie and pop culture references did start to irritate me a little due to the fact that not once did we hear her talk about watching movies or any other interest them. The men's cluelessness about the references though was quite entertaining. Baseball was made out to be a bigger thing for her emotionally but that had a serious lack of follow through that didn't sit right with me.
Overall I found this story to be slow moving but without being boring or dragging, it was humorous and intriguing. It was well thought out but still a little silly in the best way at times. I am keen to read the rest of this series and wouldn't mind listening to this book again down the track.
I had no issues with the narrator. She wasn't bad but wasn't fantastic. She did a good 'eww' which I think was important for this book.

Ugh SO MUCH INNER MONOLOGUE

This book has so much potential, the story actually sounds really fun but ive Never heard such an annoying, frustrating and INCREDIBLY stupid and im 3 hours in and next to nothing has occurred other than endless inner monologue and why she thought she could do security work when she literally takes a faint because she's told something out of the norm. The only reason I'm still listening and not asking for a refund is because the reviews for the second book suggest she stops being a complete useless moron and actually starts to become a bad arse. I REALLY hope so as otherwise I've wasted 10 hours.

I will revise the review if anything changes
