This book gets ALL OF THE STARS!!

I Loved this. Like, capital L LOVED. Everyone should read it because it is amazing and i am dyingg!
Haven’t had this intense of a reaction to a book since I read Empire of Storms (to be fair I haven’t yet gotten around to Kingdom of Ash, but that’s irrelevant)

I tried to keep up with count of smiles and squeals, which later turned into some more serious tallies:
Smiles - I honestly have no clue, this was just really cute and funny for like, most of the first 70%
Squeals at adorableness - at least 10
Scream count - 13
Time spent smothering myself with a pillow - 15 minutes
Tears - too many to count

This was a great book! I really loved the unique plot and the characters were just perfect. Jack is a total Tsundere and who doesn't love George with his persistent ways. Nice easy read with some plot twists. I was very surprised to find out how young the author was and very pleased to find out this story will be continued. I look forward to reading more. But I do have to say, we have a young RR Martin on our hands. Lets just kill everyone and rip my heart. out. Damn you Emilie Lucadamo!!!
Only thing I was a little disappointed in (and this is different for everyone) is that the what could have been a great sex scene was just skipped right over. Sad pants. But that's what I like to read so no points off for that. The build up totally makes up for it.

I very much enjoyed this story. It felt like one episode of my favourite series Supernatural. 

George Soto is a good guy, a normal guy, there is nothing extraordinary about him. But than he summons a demon as a dare. He thinks there are no such things as demons so what’s to lose? But than the unthinkable happens because demons are real. And one appears in his living room. Jack. Funny name for a demon, really. But I’ve grown quite fond of him, of both of them. 
I laughed so hard during their conversations. Showing a demon around, familiarizing him with the human world, that’s hilarious. 
And than I cried too. Because you just know that there is no way this could end well. 
The plot wasn’t complicated, it way easy to follow and kept me interested the whole time. It’s rare to find a book in which there is no boring part and How to sell our souls is one of them.

Thank you NetGalley and NineStar Press for this ARC.

A wonderful story. I really, really enjoyed reading this.

While i feel the main character was (at the beginning) a tad too willing to cheerfully accept the presence of a demon he just summoned, the rest of the story was wonderful. 
George and his sense of humour were likeable, and Jack was surly but sweet. The way the characters interacted, and the plot that formed was interesting, kept me wondering what would happen next and kept me reading it easily all in one sitting.  

This book has great content - there was action and magic, it made me laugh, made me want to cry, and above all made me wish there was a sequel. I look forward to further works (sequel or not!) from this author.
