Fourth Grave Beneath My Feet
by Darynda Jones
Series: Charley Davidson #4
Publisher: St. Martin
Publication date: October 30, 2012
Buy Barnes and Noble /Amazon / Book Depository
Sometimes being the grim reaper really is that. Grim. And since Charley’s last case went so awry, she has taken a couple months off to wallow in the wonders of self-pity. But when a woman shows up on her doorstep convinced someone is trying to kill her, Charley has to force herself to rise above. Or at least get dressed. She quickly realizes something is amiss when everyone the woman knows swears she’s insane. The more they refute the woman’s story, the more Charley believes it.In the meantime, the sexy, sultry son of Satan, Reyes Farrow, has been cleared of all charges. He is out of prison and out of Charley’s life, as per her wishes and several perfectly timed death threats. But his absence has put a serious crimp in her sex life. While there are other things to consider, like the fact that Albuquerque has been taken hostage by an arsonist, Charley is having a difficult time staying away. Especially when it looks like Reyes may be involved. Just when life was returning to normal, Charley is thrust back into the world of crime, punishment, and the devil in blue jeans.(synopsis from Goodreads)
OK, my coffee lovin' and book readin' peeps..If you haven't heard of this series you need to remedy that! The Charley Davidson series is one of the funniest urban fantasy series around. Filled with mystery, a grim-reaper and the son of Satan..it offers something everyone will enjoy. The protagonist Charley is fantastic and so is her quirky side-kick Cookie. I am anxiously awaiting this fourth novel! Here are my reviews of the last two novels; Second Grave on the Left and Third Grave Dead Ahead. The First novel is First Grave on the Right. I cannot wait to get my hands on this one!
What are you waiting on?
I still haven't read the first book series so I'm thinking I should get on that soon :) I really like the cover for it though since green is my favouite colour.

OoO a funny Urban Fantasy? I think I'm sold! Isn't this the series where one cover is read and the girl wears this dress and then Chucks? I loved this cover, is it the same series??
ReplyDeleteI know I've said as much on GR already, but yaaay! I'm reading the second one right now and I love that.. well, it's not too light, but also not the typical Woe Is Me-Urban Fantasy-kind of book. :)
ReplyDeletePatricia // My WOW
I love this series and I think I love Darynda just a wee bit more (okay, not in that way! In the "I would love to get sloshed with her way"). We need more funny books out there!!!
ReplyDeleteYou have great taste, girlie! Stellar choice!!

My WOW
This series has been on my TBR list a long time! I have the first two in audio format, so I really need to get to them!
ReplyDeleteGreat pick! Here's my WoW: http://darlenesbooknook.blogspot.ca/2012/04/waiting-on-wednesday-darkness-before.html
AHHH! I am sooooo waiting for this one, too!!!! LOVE this series!!!
ReplyDeleteThough I've not read the series, I know of them....you gotta hand it to the author/publisher, those covers catch your eye every time. Great pick!
ReplyDeleteI've read the first book and LOVED it. Then I started a blog and lost time. I have the other two on my shelf, I loved them so much I bought hardcovers. So I am totally excited to see a 4th! Thanks for the post!
ReplyDeleteI've never heard of this series before but I'm always down for some urban fantasy. I'll have to check the first one out at the library tonight.
ReplyDeleteMind checking out my WoW?
While I am waiting for book 2 to arrive ;)
ReplyDeleteI've got the first book in this series waiting for me on my bookshelf. I really hope to read it soon! Great pick :)
ReplyDeleteI like the look of the colors with these covers. :) And I still have to start this series. Shame on me. ;D Thank you for sharing this!
ReplyDeleteI've scheduled Fourth Grave Beneath My Feet for a WOW post in a few weeks. :) I loved the first 3 books, and cannot wait to read more. *wants more Reyes ASAP*
ReplyDeleteI've heard of this series but haven't read any of them. A funny urban fantasy? Sounds pretty awesome! ;)
ReplyDeleteI have so never heard of this series before! I read some urban fantasy, but not a ton.
ReplyDeleteSo, does it confuse you that urban fantasy seems to be an adult-only genre? It confuses me, because there is plenty of YA lit that is fantasy and urban, but I haven't seen that label applied to any lit that wasn't really kind of a romance. Random.
Anyway, I should check this out, only book one, because this one might not make sense!
I've heard such great things about this series, I need to dive in! Thanks for reminding me :). Here’s my WoW post! ~ Jen @ A Book and a Latte
ReplyDeleteI read book one but I didn't realize we were already up to book 4! I need to do some catch up reading.

ReplyDeleteI've heard great things about this series but haven't started it yet. Sounds like I need to get with it already. LOL. Great pick.
ReplyDeleteI haven't heard of the series, but I've just requested First Grave, and I can't wait to read it! Great WoW Pick! Thanks for stopping by! Happy reading!
