The Death’s Academy entrance exam for Midnight Smith is quickly approaching. There’s just one problem: Midnight is the worst exam taker the academy has ever seen. If Midnight wants to ever step foot inside the school, he’ll have to join forces with the hated Guardian Angels, and together face the deadliest creatures in the world—the dreaded Unicorns. Becoming a Grim Reaper has never been more hilarious!
Goodreads Summary
Everyone has those bad test days...but Midnight has bad test days all the time! I can't imagine deciding to become a reaper when I get older so I really enjoyed learning what the job entails. I liked the author's comical insertions and descriptions. The book was not constantly funny but had just enough humor that the Death's Academy was hard to put down. I really enjoyed Midnight (Night's) character. He suffered from the problem that a lot of us students have: discipline. He really reminded me of myself, at times. I think a lot of school-aged children can relate to this character.
The scenes were fast-paced and the dreaded Unicorns were both unusual and fascinating. I wasn't entirely sure if Midnight would end up passing his exam and I really enjoyed the ending. This book is ideal for middle grade readers.

- I'm a young college student who has probably read over 5000 books over the course of my short life; some of the books were classics, some of the books were terrific, and some of the books were...misses. Even with the latter part I will always believe in the power of books to completely remove the reader from his/her present reality. Long Live Books! I would love to read and review books from just about any genre. To contact me: edysicecreamlover18 AT gmail DOT com Thank you for your interest! At this time, I can only accept paperback or hardcover. The finished review copies I receive are either kept in my personal collection or donated to several libaries, schools, or charities-I have no control over the finished review copies after donation. *I claim no ownership for any images used on this site.
