UPDATED REVIEW, JUNE 4TH:As usual Charley is busy as a PI with at least one client; and a soulless one at that, she is also solving a mystery, playing matchmaker with Ubie and Cookie, trying to figure out all of her Grim powers, and on top of all that, attempting to find out what the Dealer, with his unsavory eating habits, is really up to AND why Rocket’s so behind in his work…Then of course, there is that simple yes/no question that needs to be answered. Poor Reyes - he might possess that kind...

I love this series!Re-read Aug.2,2019It's funny how many things you forget when you forget to continue through the series but glad my friends have pushed me to re-start this series. Thanks ladies :)Well Charley does need to learn a lot about her reaper position, I mean really needs to learn. Everyone keeps telling her that she can do anything but I feel like her what exactly is it that she can do?! LOL but this was definitely an up and down emotional book, funny and sad moments. I so need to get...

“Sweet,” I said, astounded at my acting skills. I should’ve gone to Hollywood when I had the chance, but when that old man offered to take me that one time at an abandoned gas station in the middle of nowhere, I wasn’t sure I could trust him. Mostly because he had rope, duct tape, and lots of condoms in his backseat. Still, I’ll never know what could have come of it. How far I could have risen. There are two types of people in the world. Those who hate Charley Davidson, and those who will lov

Book Blog | BookstagramI feel like this book is a watershed moment for the series. If you’ve been loving the ride so far, this book is going to test just how invested you really are in sticking it out with Charley.If you’ve been iffy about Charley, whether or not you like her and her constant slapstick bullshit – then this book is going to be what tips you over the edge on either side.It is not your typical Charley Davidson novel. If you’re expecting to find a PI case that Charley takes from beg...

Don't get me wrong, I did plow though this book like there was no tomorrow, but why an author would leave so many threads and plots unfinished or just brought up at the beginning of the book never to go back to them again is a mystery to me.I understand that this series is going to be a long one, or at least that is what I assume it is going to be and maybe the author doesn't want to clear up too much at one time - but there are too many side stories that are not getting any closure. Perhaps eve...

Yep, I'm on the bandwagon with all the lovers of this series. I may have begun loving it because it's so geeky and Albuquerque everything and the bumper stickers and the t-shirts are just too spot-on memory-lane for me not to gush over them, but I stay because I've fallen in love with Charley.She DEFINITELY has a death wish. Her snark alone makes her deserve anything that's coming to her, and that's including the end reveal(s) of this novel.Fortunately, for a Grim Reaper to have a Death Wish is

Here we are at book six and this still remains a series where I love the secondary characters and feel very little for the two main characters. It does not matter how many times the author tells me how wonderful Reyes is I just never feel it. And Charley needs to grow up.There. I have had my little whinge and now I can review the book comfortably.Sixth Grave on the Edge is a very busy book. There are new characters, several separate cases for Charley to engage in, and quite a lot of new informat...

SpoilersI kind of hated the last couple of Charley Davidson books, everything about them bothered me… What made things even worse was how much I initially loved the series, so for it to go downhill really pissed me off. I wanted to love the series like I used to — sadly, I doubt that'll ever happen. However, I am at least starting to like the series again, I still hate a lot of things (mainly Reyes) but there's also things I'm actually enjoying. Random thoughts:-I did quite enjoy the story, it w...

BOOK NUMBER SIX????? yes, YES, YES!!! More Charley!aaaaaand.... more Reyes! Yum!!!!wait, who said that!!??!!??!!??And it's coming out 2014!!! *looks at screen again* ... because I ended up.... *********update ^.^ OMG WE GOT A COVERRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!

Sale Alert: Jun month Kindle deal $2.994.5 StarsI know that Charley Davidson’s ‘always on’ sense of humor is not for everyone….but I love it. I always enjoy the intro quote to every chapter and her banter with the people around her friends, enemies and nigh fiancés and that is my big draw to this series. That and of coarse the incredibly sexy son of Satan Mr. Reyes Farrow. “He looks like, I don’t know.” She dared a quick look over my shoulder. “Have you ever seen the sky at night when the sta...

I made a promise to myself. No more getting tortured for - I counted on my fingers - two, no THREE months. I'm happy to report that Charley does NOT get tortured in this book, for a change. Of course she gets hurt and attempts are made on her life. I mean, come on. She lives to drive people to the edge. Even her friends have to refrain from trying to kill her every day. Like when she calls Special Agent Carson from the FBI. They have been working together for a while now, but Charley still ir

Wait a second....there is a sixth book too? and in 2013??? YESSSSSS!!!!

*sigh* And here's the point in a series when I start to wonder whether my rating ends up skewed. Am I rating this better than I would for a book without Charley? Am I rating it worse than I would if I hadn't read better in the series? No clue. So down the middle I go with 3 stars for this one. The story was too scattered, the cases too vague, and too many threads were left unresolved in the end. But, it's Charley, and I love that chick.

UPDATE:Beware, there may be a few spoilers.I can't even express how much I love this series! ❤️ why is there only one Reyes Farrow that is, unfortunately, fictional?! I WANT ONE!!!! ::stamps foot like a spoiled child:: I adore his & Charley's relationship & refuse to believe that it can end any other way than happily & them spending eternity together. Can't happen any other way. No way. Uh uh. I really enjoyed the fact that we got some more info on this impending war & I'm hoping that as the sto...

I didn't like this one much. I think it's one of the weakest, if not the weakest, books in the series. The story was pretty boring and it just spiked up a bit in the end, because duh its the climax so what would it be if not intense. I didn't care much about anything that was going on. The whole gig between Reyes and Charley was boring. The tension between these two is getting less as well. Meh. But the thing that got me angry was the cliffhanger. Spoilers and rant ahead.(view spoiler)[Lately I'...

Edit:Dammit I need to know what Charley's answer will be! 2014 Is too far awayy and i need my dose of Reyes like right now.I hope there's a ton more of this series. It's that good.************************************************************************WE HAVE A TITLE!!I can't wait for this book! I just know its gonna be awesome & the title is exciting! I neeed this!

I liked the extra time we get with Angel & Cookie in this one, but Rocket and his girls were barely a thought in this book.We get some new characters and the cases are interesting enough, I was just disappointed with the amount of time spent with some of my favourite side characters.

"My plate is overflowing but I can multitask like a Mofo"...should be on Charley's t-shirt! She's back with her crazy private investigating and grim reapering ways but the most important part is what's going on with her and all-things-sexy Reyes! Things are typical with Charley...too much going on and things coming from every which direction. The thing I love about DJ's writing is how effortless she has them all flow and come together. It's such a great journey! We get to see some more progressi...

Oh My Gravy ! What did you do Charley ?!?!?!?!?! Wooweee this is going to be fun to watch. I loved the book, loved the new characters, loved the new love story LOVED what Reyes did on his car, and wow Cookie's daughter is ruined for life ! I was a smidgen miffed that I didn't get the whole story on a certain kitchen accessory, but waiting has it's rewards.Waiting oh Mother of all things desperate. Wow, am I supposed to be able to wait for this bomb to explode in the next book ? I am just not tha...

As usual Charley had me laughing my ass off. Darynda Jones has an amazing sense of humor. One of my favorite T-shirt lead ins: Do you believe in love at first sight, or should I walk by again? Loved those walls coming down between Reyes and Charley, both figuratively and literally! I'm completely addicted, so I'm onto the next one very soon!
