This book was so dull that I put it down after page three.

Let me just get it out of the way first, I loved it. I enjoyed reading about Alex opening up a PI firm with her sidekicks Rianna and Roy. It was a laid back start seeing her being 'normal' for once. But it doesn't last long, so enjoy the casual laid back start to this one, because once it gets going, you're in for a ride.
Tongues of the Dead's first case involving a suicide kick starts the action, which gradually builds up and about half way through the book, goes into high gear and then super high gear. So you remember the last book when holes in multiple realities start to appear in Nekros? Remember those group of amateur witches who draw on the Aesthetic energy? Ok, will this book is about one of the boogymen who was released into our world by this group of ignorant idiots. It gets pretty intense the farther you get in to the book, till practically the very last end. So fasten your metaphorical seat belts, put the do not disturb sign on your door, silence your cell phones, cause you will not want to put this book down till you find out what happens and if anyone dies.
Aside from the mystery involving a series of suspicious suicides that Alex is investigating, she discovers more life altering information about herself. A new (annoying "over the top" character is introduced and let me just warn you, you will want to scratch her eyes out, and pull her hair. Ok. You were forewarned). The love triangle between Alex, Death, and Falin, well, lets just say it gets HOT, but you're going to have to be patient, because things don't actually start heating up till the second half of the book. What I can safely say is that Falin might just prove to be a dangerous liability/weapon with Alex as the target and though Alex has a phobia of sorts against the L word, her actions to save Death, suggest she just might be capable of making the ultimate sacrifice for that L word.
Enjoy! <3

Další povedený díl série. V době, kdy jsem si zamilovala sérii Hřbitovní královna jsem myslela, že další sérii, která se mi bude tak líbit, budu hledat marně. Nakonec jsem ji našla, jediné, co mě mrzí je, že není přeloženo víc dílu.

Alex is being harassed by The Winter Queen, she keeps sending Falin to search her home for various items that there's no way she could have, but at the same time forbidding them to have any unofficial contact just to annoy her into making a choice of which court to pledge allegiance to.
In the midst of this Alex accidentally stumbles on a new case where people vanish for three days and then they reappear only to commit some form of suicide, putting her in in pretty consistent contact with Death, her other forbidden beau.
I liked this one a bit better than book 2, there was more angst and twists and a bit more focus on her two relationships again.

I really liked Grave Memory.
I enjoyed Alex’s struggles with her fae heritage. I liked the way Kalayna Price explored the effect it has on Alex’s friendships in this book; the effect her new relationship with faery has on the friends who know and how keeping the secret from other friends effects those friendships as well.
This book also has big changes in the relationships with the men in her life, especially Death, who I love.
My favourite Alex Craft book so far.
