For Whom the Belle Tolls by Jaysea Lynn



5 Stars

They told her to go to Hell.

She went, but on her own terms.

Lily isn’t exactly thrilled with her arrival in the Afterlife, but what awaits her there is more fantastical than she ever could have imagined: Deities wait in line at the coffee shop. Fae flit between realms. Souls find ways to make death a beginning.

As she explores the many corners of the Afterlife, Lily finds herself surprisingly drawn to a place most people would avoid at all costs: Hell. Armed with years of customer service experience and pent-up sarcasm, Lily carves a job out for herself amongst Hell’s demons, sending souls to their rightful circles with more than a hint of sass.

Lily’s expectations are subverted every day in Hell—especially by Bel, a demon general with a distractingly sexy voice. The two meet by chance and form an immediate, deeply healing friendship, but the undeniable heat between them threatens to combust.

Meanwhile, something stirs beyond the boundaries of their world, threatening to destroy everything they’ve known and everything that could be…unless they fight like Hell to stop it.

I loved this book so much. It would have been my number one book for the month if it hadn’t been read in the same month as Devney Perry’s Shield of Sparrows. This book deals with death and dying and if this subject is hard for you avoid the book. I loved that Lily creates a help desk in hell to deal with crabby afterlife souls. She gets to take out her anger on those who are going to different levels of hell or to help them find their afterlife. This book has so much humor along with the serious notes which led me to not be able to put the book down. Would definitely read again.
