Okay, an Ozzy GPS App? DYING laughing. I wish I could actually have that on my iPhone. :-) This was a funny chapter, but also serious. We learn that one of Charley's ghosts in her apartment isn't dead after all. What did you think of the twist that Darynda threw in there for us? We also learned that Charley's presence is healing to the traumatized ghosts. And here she thought she was irritating. haha


Meigan I loved the new character! And I really like the fact that she also has a power of sorts. Darynda left some threads open pertaining to that character and I can't wait to see what roles she will play in future books.


Candie (candiegyrl) | 350 comments Mod
Yes! I thought that it was a great spin on what we are normally used to with the ghosts that Charley deals with.


Vicki (vicki_lp) | 217 comments Mod
Yes, I loved that character, and laughed SO hard at Ozzy!

Ozzy was awesome!!! I really want to program my husband's GPS with him! Mwah ha ha!!!

I thought it was wonderful that Charley's presence is healing, but I guess since Reyes's presence freaks out the ghosts, it shouldn't have been a surprise.

It's going to be interesting to see how Nicolette plays into future books.

That is a great point about Reyes Traci! I didn't even think about that!

After hearing the prophecy, (view spoiler) we'll find her in the following books. Darynda will have loads of trouble putting everyone in, I'm so glad Donovan will be back as well!

Ozzie's voice is just an amazing addition. I have to wonder if it would make me laugh if I was lost or just make me yell back a lot of bad words lol I know he did some voice stuff for Garmin GPS, maybe you can find it in some Garmin app.

Ines, hearing Ozzy on the audiobook was hysterical. I couldn't stop laughing.

Oh, I completely forgot about the audiobook option because I rather read. Is that reason enough to buy the audiobook? It probably is! lol


Candie (candiegyrl) | 350 comments Mod
I really enjoy the Charley books on audio. Lorelei King is a great narrator. :-)


Meigan Ines, you completely made my day. I LOVE Donovan :) And I love that you take the time to look this stuff up and report it to us curious folk!


Stephanie (thirstyflea) | 223 comments I want the Ozzie GPS app! I would only use it when I needed a laugh or to see how pissed off I could make Ozzie :-)

I'm not too surprised that Charley's touch is soothing to ghosts, although it's interesting to hear about another "power". Really interested where that will go in the future! And Charley is still annoying to ghosts :-) imagine being a ghost and getting ignored or snarky comments as responses! No "angelic" niceties from our Charley (and I wouldn't have it any other way)!

And Nicolette! What a surprise! She definitely sounds interesting, and sounds like she could be a good new character for the series!


Stephanie (thirstyflea) | 223 comments Oh, and Donovan is coming back?!? Woooo hoooo!!!!


Vicki (vicki_lp) | 217 comments Mod
Okay, now that I'm over the Ozzy App, I was totally thrown that one of the ghosts WASN'T. That was definitely a ...whoa....what? moment.

Yes, it makes sense that she can soothe ghosts, since she IS the portal to the other side. :) Wouldn't work very well if she was scary.


Brandy  (grim_darkling) | 70 comments I love the Ozzy app! And I loved the twist, I thought I had it figured out but SURPRISE! lol

Ines (slayraa) | 684 comments I'm happy I'm not considered a traitor for liking Donovan! :D Darynda said she hopes to bring him back in the next book (6th grave), but either way he will be back. Right now he's enjoying some sunny Mexican beach...


Meigan Well, when Donovan comes back, poor guy needs a new house :(

Ines (slayraa) | 684 comments Huuum, Charley will probably have hers to spare, not to mention she owns the whole building. Are you thinking what I'm thinking? Hihi

somehow, I don't think Donovan would live very long if he moved into Charley's building.

Lol! I guess those seconds would be very entertaining! ;)


Candie (candiegyrl) | 350 comments Mod
Very excited that Donovan will be back. Give Reyes a run for his money. lol!


Meigan Yes, it will be good to see Donovan again. But hopefully a love triangle doesn't appear, I'm getting mighty tired of the love triangle in books.


Candie (candiegyrl) | 350 comments Mod
Yes, Meigan. I agree. I am hoping he will just shake things up a bit. Charley and Reyes seem to be going very well! :-)

Darynda has said she doesn't like love triangles and it's true Charley and Reyes are very official (though making Reyes a little jealous is always fun!). Donovan and his friends will probably help Charley when it's time to meet her father in law... (is that a great family or what?)


Meigan Thank heavens she dislikes the love triangle. Many readers do, too. Myself included. Depends on the book though. I would hate it in this series, mainly because I am such a huge fan of Charley and Reyes together. Hopefully when Donovan shows up again, he keeps his paws to himself :)

Thank goodness for that. Triangles are getting tiresome.


Mindy Mymudes | 17 comments I remember one of the interviews mentioned that our favorite corner ghost is getting a spin off?

Mel | 829 comments Mud, I am looking forward to Mr. Wong's story, too. I LOVE Darynda and respect her courage for writing a series with characters who find love, the love matures, changes, and grows. I truly enjoy reading books in which I get to observe couples after the "happily-ever-after".
