The Collector: A Dante Walker #1 by Victoria Scott
This book was great! At first it was a little dry, but it kept getting better and better. If you like sarcastic, egotistic and charming guys, you will love this book! This book is a great goodnight read. Here's a summary:
He makes good girls...bad.
Dante Walker is flippin’ awesome, and he knows it. His good looks, killer charm, and stellar confidence have made him one of hell’s best—a soul collector. His job is simple: weed through humanity and label those round rears with a big red good or bad stamp. Old Saint Nick gets the good guys, and he gets the fun ones. Bag-and-tag.
Sealing souls is nothing personal. Dante’s an equal-opportunity collector and doesn't want it any other way. But he’ll have to adjust, because Boss Man has given him a new assignment:
Collect Charlie Cooper’s soul within ten days.
Dante doesn't know why Boss Man wants Charlie, nor does he care. This assignment means only one thing to him, and that’s a permanent ticket out of hell. But after Dante meets the quirky Nerd Alert chick he’s come to collect, he realizes this assignment will test his abilities as a collector…and uncover emotions deeply buried.
SPOILERS! STOP! PASS THIS POINT IF YOU HAVEN'T READ THE BOOK YOU WILL BE UPSET! SPOILERS ARE COMING!
Okay! Now that all the people who haven't read the book are gone(they better be), I can really talk! First, Dante was a total jerk in the beginning, did that bother anyone else? I mean he was funny, but at the same time he was really fake to Charlie. What I did love was how his personality changed when he could relate to her about both of there parents and how he felt sorry for her since her 'grandma' was sick.
Another aspect I want to hit is Blue, he died! I didn't want that and where did he come from when they were fighting? Did he follow them or was he someone important that I just completely missed? Then I knew Victoria and Max were going to be together as soon as Max said something about his fiancee I was like:
But then I was like:
I loved it! It makes me so happy that Victoria and Max found each other, I think they are just so cute. Of course that wasn't the end of it, Dante's moms boyfriend was the antagonist. The bad guy. I was just like:
Like it could have been anyone,but no it was someone who was unimportant. At first I was like OMG Blue is going to come out and be all "What now, Dante!". He didn't and I wasn't happy about that at all. He was just some random thrown in character that I felt had nothing to do with anything!
OVERALL:
The book was interesting and I will be finishing the rest of the series! It was funny on so many levels of sarcasm.
