I finished First Grave on the Right last night and what a fun read! The book was well written and fully developed. Darynda is very smart and has a fantastic sense of humor she infuses in the main character Charley. Loved the development of her relationship with Reyes and cannot wait to see what happens next!

Anyone interested in sampling this series, there is an excerpt of First Grave on the Right on the publisher's site.

Wont - avoid any sites that have spoilers. I'm sure the pub's site doesn't. One of the big draws about this book is the shock you get at the end. Darynda's writing keeps you so wound into the story that when you read the big reveal, you truly are shocked. 
And Darynda, I'm just tossing this out there, if you want Beta readers for your ARCs,
I'll be magnanimous like that and take one for the team. Feel free to send me one

Look at us. Frostfans rocks. Not only do we have a fun play land to gab over centuries old drop dead gorgeous men, we also offer up our Beta services to newly published authors. I love us .

Oh my gosh, thank you guys SO MUCH!!!! What a wonderful welcome.
So glad everyone is enjoying first grave. Only four months until Second Grave. We learn more about Reyes and his mysterious past. He's hot, but that's a given. LOL. Ummmmmm, well, I think it's better than First Grave, but I could be biased.
Thank you again!!!

OH! And thank you for all the offers for beta reads! Don't be surprised when I come knocking. LOL

Reason: I combined - the ghouls eat double posters and we can't have them eating Reyes' creator. That would be very bad.
