The first book in this series. Fun and humor with a side of steam. There is mystery, with a who-done-it or two. I found myself waiting for the next question to be answered, which did not truly get happen, at least not to my satisfaction. Which means on to the next book. A fun read. Also have this i...

This book was awful. I can't even with it. The writing wasn't great. The main character Charley is just painful. The other characters were painful.

First Grave on the Right is by Darynda Jones. It is a unique twist on the story of the Grim Reaper. In this take, Charlotte Davidson (aka Charley) is the Grim Reaper. However, she doesn't swing any scythes and doesn't run around in hooded cloaks bringing waves of doom with her. Instead she is a ...

Let me just say that in most cases, I'm a huge fan of sarcastic wit, but it has to be properly timed. First Grave on the Right certainly has an abundance of sarcasm, and at the very beginning of the story, it was amusing. That amusement quickly waned as the book went on because there was just too mu...

I'm so so so disappointed this book wasn't for me. Personally I'm not really sure why so many people rate this book so highly. I had a lot of issue's with it, not so much the world or writing style, but the main character's personality and the way she handled things. The love interest was also distu...

A murder mystery with a supernatural angle. Charley sees ghosts and is the Grim Reaper. She is a portal to the other side. She knows Reves Farrow shows up when bad things are happening around her but she does not know why.I liked these characters. This is a good set-up for the series. It is a solid ...

Synopsis: This whole grim reaper thing should have come with a manual. Or a diagram of some kind. A flow chart would have been nice. Charley Davidson is a part-time private investigator and full-time grim reaper. Meaning, she sees dead people. Really. And it’s her job to convince them to “go into ...
