Boogiepop and Others

Back of the book summary:

There is an urban legend that children tell one another about a shinigami that can release people from the pain they may be suffering. This "Angel of Death" has a name--Boogiepop. And the legends are true. Boogiepop is real.

When a rash of disappearances involving female students breaks out at Shinyo Academy, the police and faculty assume they just have a bunch of runaways on their hands. Yet, Nagi Kirima knows better. Something mysterious and foul is afoot. Is it Boogiepop or something more sinister...?

My comments:
Finally, finished reading the first book in this series and I really liked it. The writing style is a little different since it's in a non-linear fashion (just like the anime series). And if you've seen the anime you'll recognize a lot of the characters and stories but there is a ton of stuff in this book that the anime series didn't even begin to cover. Overall it's really an addictive book and Seven Seas did a wonderful job translating it.

My Rating: 9/10
