Genres: Urban Fantasy
Waiting on Wednesday is a feature hosted by Breaking The Spine spotlighting upcoming releases we’re looking forward to.
This week’s can’t-wait-to-read selection is:
Title: Summoned to the Thirteenth Grave
Author: Darynda Jones
Release Date: January 15, 2019
Charley Davidson, Grim Reaper extraordinaire, is pissed. She’s been kicked off the earthly plain for eternity – which is the appropriate amount of time to make a person starkraving mad. But someone’s looking out for her, and she’s allowed to return after a mere hundred years in exile. Is it too much to hope for that not much has changed? Apparently it is. Bummer.
She’s missed Reyes and her daughter, Beep, but now that she’s back on earth, it’s time to put to rest burning questions that need answers. What happened to her mother? How did she really die? Who killed her? And are cupcakes or coffee the best medicine? It all comes to a head in an epic showdown between good and evil in this final smart and hilarious novel.
Why I’m looking forward to it:
I’m feeling bittersweet about the end of this series. I’m always happy to see a new Charley Davidson, but I’ll be sad to read this one, knowing it’s the end.
What about you? What are you looking forward to this week?
