Wow what an amazing book! I couldnt even
blink reading this book! At first i wouldn't even want to read this
book! since she was dead and it all looked soo weird! but thankz god i
did! I just cant wait to read the next book, i just cannot wait!

My name is Madison Avery, and I'm here to tell you that
there's more out there than you can see, hear, or touch. Because I'm
there. Seeing it. Touching it. Living it. Madison's prom was
killerliterally. For some reason she's been targeted by a dark
reaperyeah, that kind of reaperintent on getting rid of her, body
and soul. But before the reaper could finish the job, Madison was able
to snag his strange, glowing amulet and get away. Now she's stuck on
Earthdead but not gone. Somehow the amulet gives her the illusion of a
body, allowing her to toe the line between life and death. She still
doesn't know why the dark reaper is after her, but she's not about to
just sit around and let fate take its course. With a little
ingenuity, some light-bending, and the help of a light reaper (one of
the good guys! Maybe . . . ), her cute crush, and oh yeah, her guardian
angel, Madison's ready to take control of her own destiny once and for
all, before it takes control of her . Well, if she believed in
that stuff.

Madison Avery was, for some reason, the target of a dark reaper, who wanted to destroy her, body and soul. Madison stole the reaper's amulet and escaped. The amulet gives Madison the illusion of a body, but she's really dead, toeing the line between life and death. The dark reaper is still after her, so with the help of a light reaper, her guardian angel, and possible boyfriend, Madison sets out to stop the dark reaper before it's too late.

Once Dead, Twice Shy was an exciting, well written, and unique book. When I first read what this book was about I thought it sounded really stupid. One chapter later, and I was hooked. Kim Harrison took what could have been the worst book ever and made it something great. Fans of The Summoning, Evermore, and Need will definitely enjoy this book.
