I like everything except the plot ( )

Well, Charley Davidson is back and boy has her life gotten complicated! Besides being the grim reaper, a god, a wife and a mother, she's still a very talented PI who has a very high solve rate due to her special abilities. I mean, when you can talk to ghosts, you kind of have an inside track on the goings on of the spirit world. That being said, the other supernatural stuff she is dealing with has massive life and death consequences, and Charley will need to lean on her support system now more than ever because some big things are going down, and she is going to need to be ready for anything. Cookie and Ubie, Osh and Garrett are as dependable as ever, but Reyes has been distant ever since they came back from New York. It turns out both Charley and Reyes are keeping some pretty big secrets, and the question is whether they will be able to come together in time to prevent world shattering disaster from happening.

As usual, Charley's humor and snarkiness make this book a very enjoyable and quick read. The characters never grow stale, and the pacing is getting quicker and quicker as questions are answered and new problems are revealed. I love this series so much and can't wait to read the next installment!

Highly recommend - 5 very enthusiastic stars. ( )

I liked this but it didn't wow me. There was a lot going on and some of it didn't really play well into the story particularly the bits with the people following Charley to report on her. That seemed just shoe horned in. And there didn't seem any real point in it and it didn't really go anywhere. I was glad there was an actual mystery for Charley and Cookie to solve. The parts that shone for me were Charlie and Reyes together. ( )

Reyes sister is killed by a Uzon God, Charley traps the God sets Kim's spirit free and she becomes a ghostly guardian of Beep, Charley's baby destined to save the world.

Charley finds out that Uncle Bob is slated to be murdered and sent to hell for a murder he committed to save Charley from being eaten by a Drug Lord who wants paranormal powers.

Charley saves a friend of Ada Nick Parker from a murder charge, then downloads her memories into the ADA. Charley also eats a demon preying on kids at an orphanage.

Charley is trying her best to get her life a little bit under control and understand what the universe is looking for from her. I'm just not sure...after the baby and then the "amnesia" this book feels like it's trying to sew some frayed seams. ( )
