Now in My Bookbag: Soulless, by Sarah J Pepper

I was given an advance copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. All opinions expressed are my own.



Much is made during the book about Piper being the mirror image of Declan. So too, this story is the mirror image of a traditional fairy tale. Though the title is Soulless, each of the aforementioned characters are written to have a softer side… the remainders of a soul. This element gives each of these characters a polarity of their own
Making reference to other fairy tales, author Sarah J Pepper twists them into the mix, some more successfully than others. I believe the book might be more cohesive with fewer of these fairy tale twists, so the flow of the story gets lost in a couple of places.
Soulless
Without revealing too much of the story, I will say that much of the book is well thought out and imaginatively written. 4 stars
