I liked Sleep Like Death. I really liked our arrogant heroine, Eve, and liked reading about her fun powers and adventures. I LOVED Claude and the boys. I’m still angry at what happens with them and yelled at the book when tragedy struck. With that being said, some of the plot points at the end were really obvious and I don’t think the epilogue needed to be as long as it was but it was still pretty interesting. I definitely enjoyed this more than Cinderella’s Dead as there was the constant need in my head to figure out the mystery of the Knight and to see how much of a spin Kalynn Bayron was going to put on this Snow White retelling.
