First Grave on the Right by Darynda Jones

This was my first introduction into Chic Lit, albeit supernatural Chic Lit. I can say with certainty that it was the perfect first book for me. Absolutely adored Charly! She was spunky and sarcastic, not afraid to be afraid, got her ass handed to her several times and still kept up the hilarious commentary. Excellent, fun, sexy, witty writing.
I'm super excited to read the next one

I was recommended this series by several people, so maybe my hopes were too high. I was sorely disappointed. From the start the writing was amateur. I rolled my eyes so many times, I'm surprised it didn't get stuck there.

What I did like:

There was a noticeable change from the first two books to the third.I really loved this one.
It honestly creeped me out a few times as well so that is always fun!

I finished this book in less than 12 hours. I loved everything about this book.
Alessandra is wicked smart, clever, and ambitious, but a true morally gray bad ass. I usually hate lead female characters but I loved her! Everything about her. And Kallias?! Fucking swoon. I love everything about his character as well.
My only negative comment will be that I wish this was a series. It would have been a glorious series with many amazing side characters I would have loved to have read more about!
