Book two-hundred-and-thirty-nine: Keturah and Lord Death

Keturah and Lord Death (2006)
Martine Leavitt

Rating: 3/5

Am I weird in that I spent most of this book thinking “oh, come on Keturah, be a bit nicer to Lord Death. Sure, he wants to kill you (and eventually everyone you know), but look at his good points….”

Keturah gets lost in the woods one dark night and is discovered by young, handsome Lord Death. He is ready to take her life, but after she charms him with a love story he gives her a reprieve: She'll become his bride unless she can find her one true love within twenty-four hours. With the help of her friends, an old witch, and a magic eyeball, Keturah searches her village for the one thing that can save her-a love greater than death.
