Book Review: Body Shop

 

My name is Stevie, and I clean up the dead for a living.

It isn’t as gross as it sounds. I get some kick-ass outfits, and my boss doesn’t mind when I listen to music while I work. I also meet the most interesting people, like serial killers, scorned housewives... oh, and a tech obsessed stalker and a mob boss.

When they both decide I’m theirs, all I can do is go along for the ride.

Cleaning up bodies is easy, but love? Well, that’s much harder.

My Review

Stevie took Keir by surprise with her pink hair. Actually, the first time they met, she was wearing so much pink that it was like someone vomited pink bubblegum all over her. Stevie has no filter. Just try to tame her. Ask her boss, Jack. He tries but the more he does, the more she takes it as a challenge. Her coworker, Riley, is great. They get along well and the fact that he is the only other employee at the Body Shop as Stevie has scared all the other ones away. 

I laughed at Stevie calling Keir's right-hand man, Banks aka Tiger Boy. I was not sure how Alistair was fitting into the story, but when I saw where the storyline was going, I was all in. I love the competing egos of Keir and Alistair. 

I am OBSESSED with this book. K.A. has truly outdone herself with this book. Gimmie all the snarkiness!! Stevie is full of the snark or as Jack, her boss likes to call it..."Stevieness". She is her own brand. To quote Miley Cyrus..."I came in like a wrecking ball". I need like ten more books with everyone. Ok, I will settle for a tv series.
