Something Deadly This Way Comes
by Kim Harrison
Book 3 of the Madison Avery series
Summary (via Goodreads)
published 2011
When Madison died the night of her prom, she knew her life would never be the same. Now she has a powerful amulet, a team of rogue angels by her side, and the ability to flash forward into the future to see the shape of destiny. And of course, now she's finally with Josh - a perfect boyfriend who doesn't even mind that's dead.
But being dead has its disadvantages, too. Madison feels caught between the light and the dark, and between her real life and her timekeeper status. When Madison has the opportunity to get her body back - to be alive again - she faces her most difficult decision yet. If she claims it, she could return to being a normal girl - and have a chance at a real relationship with Josh. But would having the one thing she wants most in the world also mean giving up everything she's worked so hard for?

My Opinion
4 stars
This is the third book in the series and I have the same advice as I did for the second book - these MUST be read in order. It jumps right in without much of a recap so I'm also glad I read all 3 in a short timeframe.
I wasn't liking this as much as the others but I ended up rounding up to 4 because it's very readable and unpredictable even if I was rolling my eyes at some of the teen drama.
There don't appear to be any further books and it ended well enough if the series is over. However, there's also room to continue and I would read more if the author put them out.
