I picked up this book because it was the first book featured in Internet geek queen Felicia Day's Vaginal Fantasy Hangout, an online book club that features exactly the sort of stuff I love to read. Never one to let a chance to add another first person narrated female paranormal heroine series to my...

Grave Witch is full of mixed reviews. Some people liked it, others hated it. Most of the people on my list loved the damn thing so there’s no surprise when I say that I was having high hopes for it. And of course life took away my hopes, stomped all over them and threw them in the toilet. Much appre...

Another para/supernatural author that manages to tick all the right boxes. The main character is a witch with an affinity for the dead. Ignored by her own family and misunderstood by many that surround her Alex Craft is always smack bang in the middle of trouble. I found the book fast paced and inte...

Alex Craft is a witch and she uses her grave magic to help her in her job as a Private Investigator. Her magic allows her to interact with ghosts but she is mainly asked to contact shades which are like an echo of the person who died - they have the person's memories but no emotions so they can answ...

4.5 stars. I really enjoyed this book. The world-building was interesting and original, even while using witches and the Fae which have been done to death. I liked Alex. Her abilities were powerful yet came with consequences, which is refreshing. Minus half a star because the sex scene skated a...

Grave Witch is not really a blindingly original piece of urban fantasy - witches, faeries, magic, mysteries to be solved, some gory murders, a hunky blond for the heroine to sleep with. Some of the world building and the magic reminded me of the first Hollows book, just, well, better. Apart from the...

I really liked this book. The main character definitely reminded me of Allie Beckstrom from Magic to the Bone (black coffee and all), but the actual plot was unique and different enough that it didnt feel like a rip off. Death was my favorite. Onto numero two!

I have to say, I really liked the storyline of this one. I read a few reviews before finally buying this one and all the talk of how hot Death was I was excited for a romance. It wasn't really a romance, but more of a paranormal murder mystery. And I'm not disappointed in the least over that. I love...

Reviewed by: Rabid ReadsOn the surface, Grave Witch has a lot of similarities with Laurell K. Hamilton's Anita Blake series (before it got weird) but once I got a little deeper; I discovered a rich story filled with unusual characters. Alex's numerous and unbelievably complex problems transform this...
