Long Live Evil

RAE is dying of cancer when a strange woman offers her the chance to enter the world of her favorite book series on a quest that will save her life. She comes to awareness in the story to discover she is in the body of a villainous character on the eve of her execution. From there, she scrambles to save herself in the book narrative, recruit Allie, and complete her quest so she can return to the “real world” before time runs out. 

This book was fun and interesting. I didn't realize it was the first in a series and it could really work as a standalone. Rae is in turns charmong and brittle.  Two characters from within tbe book añso serve as POV characters with their own agendas and ideas about what should happen. Rae often doesn't know what's going to happen because of brain fog and the plot changing from tbe orogonal book. Twists and turns abound.
