The Dirt on Ninth Grave A Novel Charley Davidson Series Darynda Jones Books

I felt that there was much to this book that reminded you of where this all began, how things were left in the last book, and where we might potentially be going further along. I'm very 50-50 on long series like this because sometimes the author just goes on too much and you lose the feeling that you had towards the characters by the end when you eventually give up. It's a dangerous thing that you do because it makes you wonder where they're original thoughts and plans for these characters and their stories were supposed to end and where the publishers or fans pushed them to continue. The last book or two before this really was making me wonder when this was going to end because it was losing all the flair that it had in the first three or four. This book was that spark that made you realize why you got into the series in the first place, why you loved the characters, and why you kept coming back for more.

I have read reviews in the past with people complaining or loving one or two things, or both: The sazzy dialogue, especially with Charley, or the writing of Reyes and how "hawt" he is. The former really never bothered me throughout the series. In fact, I love it. I think it makes the character's unique, they stand out much more compared to other books in this genre, and it makes you smile or laugh out loud. Sometimes it gets slightly annoying because there are some serious scenes you want Charley to take seriously, but I wouldn't change her for the world. This flaw is a huge character trait that highlights just how remarkable and loveable she is. When it comes to the later, with how the author writes about Reyes, I can understand the awe that women in the book have about him. But to me it is a bit much. I don't need to be reading about it in every scene with him in every chapter. It's too overwhelming and it becomes discouraging. It's nice and all that he's a hot man and the ladies are attracted to him, but isn't it a bit much? And it's egoistical of Charley to accept the women flocking towards him, married or not. I don't see any reason to needing that in the book. I have the picture of Reyes in my mind - I don't need to be reminded about it every thirty seconds in the book. So I have to agree that it's a bit much. And looking at people through his eyelashes, or lowing his head like he's a dog that's sizing up his prey...let's take it down a notch.

The book is written very well, but there are editorial errors in it. The wrong "their, they're, there" being used, missing quoting (") marks in the beginning or ending of sentences (at least two that I caught), or incomplete or confusing sentences because a word or two were missing from that sentence. It's very annoying having to stop your reading groove to re-read a sentence more than once. Especially if there was a long wait to the book. Unless the draft is a complete mess and needed an overhaul, I feel like simple things like this could have been caught.

The book was a great pace. You never got bored with anything. You would have some ideas about what was to come, what would happen, how she would get her memories back, what her "case" was really about...it was nice. New things, old things...it was very refreshing. I loved the way that her friends and family were all there around her, whether she knew it or not. I wouldn't say that it was bad that they were pretending to be other people to give her the time and space to work through her own issues. I understand how the author placed and plotting things out and I have to commend her on doing a really good job with this. It really can make a person very empathic towards the situation that every character faced. And once more, I loved Charley and Cookie in this, and we had a traditional Reyes.

I will be reading the next book and I do hope that this series comes to an end in a satisfying way. Through this book and series you could tell how much Charley and Reyes love one another and how the odds were against them. I felt really bad for all characters throughout this book and what they were all going through and it just really made the characters, the plot, the series and this book so much more stronger and completely believable.

The Dirt on Ninth Grave A Novel Charley Davidson Series Darynda Jones Books Reviews

I struggled a bit with how the gang kept Charlie in the dark in this book. I won't mention anymore due to spoilers but I wish they had handled her dilemma differently. Despite that, I still very much enjoyed this book and I liked how Charley came back to herself even if it was sad.

While Charley wasn't herself, a part of her still was. She got herself in all kinds of trouble trying to help people and still solved cases that were pretty exciting. There seemed to be a lot in this book.

-a store owner's family was being held captive
-a headless horseman
-a very disturbed cop
-a good cop with a dangerous entity inside him
-a baby killer
- and last but not least, a love match

On to book 10...

OVERALL SERIES DESCRIPTION Heroine, Charley Davidson, Private Investigator and Grim Reaper. She's a portal for the dead to pass through to heaven. Hero, Reyes Alexander Farrow, Son of Satan and portal to Hell. Since Charley can see and talk to the dead, she has helped her former cop father and current cop uncle solve cases. The main focus in each book are the cases Charley solves with the help of her best friend Cookie, her uncle and the dead victims. The side focus is the romance between Charley and Reyes and the impending war with the demons that is predicted.
I rarely write reviews, but this book is worth the time. I can honestly say the Charley Davidson series, besides Harry Potter, are my favorite books....ever! I love the genuine relationship between the characters and the pace of their dialogue, how it ebb and flows, depending on who is "speaking". The plot is always surprising, and laugh out-loud entertaining. I appreciate the depth of the conflict Charley, her friends, and newly introduced characters experience. Yet find the jovial, comical manner in which it is dealt with, refreshing. The balance between the "consequential" and humor, of a single event, is flawless in all of Ms. Jones' books. I loved the way the book began, as if Charley, a.k.a Janey, was living life normally... for a person suffering from amnesia. It was a believable and again, entertaining. After reading the ending of book 8, my heart was broken for Charley, and I didn't want to relive that desolate feeling in this book. I never felt a "heaviness" while reading this book until the end, when Janey remembers her past as Charley. While I felt the expected emotions when reading of her sorrow when giving up her child, I was not bogged down by them due to the nature of the writing. I also loved the clarification about the whats, or rather whom's, in regards to Charley and Reyes. The revelations in The Dirt on Ninth Grave, inspired hope, excitement and intrigue for the books to come!
