Grave Memory by Kalayna Price
3.0
Did the author make some sort of dare while writing this--'I know...I'll throw out some completely crazy scenarios that would never happen and then make it fit the story.Yeah, that sounds like a good idea'.
I've got to admit that this story really tested my ability to just let crazy plots and story lines ride. I desperately want to scream WHAT WERE YOU THINKING??? but don't want to spoil many parts of the story with my ranting so I won't.
Basic random overview:
Alex yearns after Falin and Death. She almost gains some depth to her character by saying she felt something for the two men (almost, not quite). Other than that, she has unfinished business with Faerie. Adding to the list of things on her plate--a crazy woman who wants to kill/work with Alex. Wait--there is more! The number of obstacles thrown at Alex is just too much. It was never believable but even with suspended reality it is doubtful.
My basic (and slightly random) thoughts--The book isn't awful but it is trying (as in my patience). Alex's poor dog has a bladder of steele and must have been from an abusive relationship because she isn't home enough to have something love her as much. Another random thought--what happened to the cool gargoyle, Fred? Why introduce a character that really isn't part of the story? I had hoped it would actually have a part of a future story.
