Fifth Grave Past the Light
by Darynda Jones
*Slight series spoilers present*
Fifth Grave Past the Light starts with a bang and ends with a bang. Charley is one of my top 5 female heroines and I don't see that changing anytime soon. The series gets better and better with every book.
Let me start with our favorite couple. I love that Reyes now lives right next door to Charley. It was funny watching her fight against going over there. As always the romance between Charley and Reyes is HOT. I love the way that Darynda describes their feelings and relationship towards each other. The scenes between them come fast and often and I loved every minute of it. The supporting characters of this series are always fabulous. Cookie continues to be another source of entertainment. The opening chapter with her was especially fun to read and I always look forward to her and Charley's interaction. Swopes finds out some pretty major information about Charley and Reyes. We get a small look at it but they don't dive into it as much as I wish they would have. We get a slight peek at what is to come in regards to Charley's ghostly side kick when his mother shows up at Charley's office. I am excited to learn more about him. Uncle Ubie and Charley continue to be close. His presence is there when she needs him and she needs him often.
There is one particular scene in FIFTH GRAVE that was really hard to read. I was in complete and total tears and heartbreak having to read it but I made it through and I could see how it will change how Charley looks at some situations in the future. The ending paragraph will make your eyes bug out and leave you panting for book 6. If you have not started this series you are nuts! Start from book 1, you will not be disappointed.
