Third Grave Dead Ahead (Charley Davidson, #3) in SOS: Serious Overload of Series

Oct 05, 2017 Melissa Davis rated it really liked it

A few months ago, I finished the Mercy Thompson/Alpha & Omega series. A huge void opened up that my TBR backlist couldn't fill. I put my feelers out looking for my next favorite Urban Fantasy Series. I got lots of recommendations. Charlie Davison was on the list. Everyone seems to love the plucky grim reaper. So, I tried her out and thought the 1st two books were only okay. For me, Charlie was just a smidge over the line on the wrong side of "too much". I did not really see the appeal and I real ...more

I do enjoy Charley's sense of humor, but I find her to be quite lacking in common sense and then we she gets annoyed that "her men" look after her (and what is with them all falling for her). If she wasn't doing such stupid things, then I could understand her POV better.

I enjoy so much about this series that it is hard to put it into words. The captions that begin each chapter become a mantra, Mr. Wong in the corner brings a smile and smoking hot son of Satan, Reyes, makes my eyes glaze over. Charley contends with a missing person, a biker gang and Reyes' dead father. Bring on the next one in the series. 4.5 stars ...more
