Genuinely one of the best book series I've ever read. I was so invested in the story and loved and was shocked at the outcome. 100% recommend.

Overall fantastic ending to the series

I loved this story. A typical American story, from the heartland. Authentic, bright and very well written. Worth listening, over and over again.

Well written!

Usually when I enjoy a book I'd say I couldn't put it down but in this case I simply didn't know where the time had gone. Although at the start of the story it looks like it will mainly be romance there soon develops a very interesting plot with several twists and turns (which you can't always see coming a mile away). Charlaine Harris is brilliant at characterization and you are drawn in as much because of their faults as their good points.

Usually I prefer an English narrator but Alyssa Bresnahan is brilliant, reading in a very natural tone, with an accent that seems to suit the story and voicing the different parts very well.

It is important to know that this book is the last in the series. I hadn't realized this when I bought it in the sale and now the earlier books are spoiled for me, so I would strongly suggest getting those first. The order is: Grave Sight, Grave Surprise, An Ice Cold Grave and Grave Secret. As far as I can see at the time of writing this review, Audible does not stock the first title in this series. I would not be put off buying the other books because of that, even as a stand alone Grave Secret it is a great read and I will probably go back and buy the others at some point too.

Much better than I though it would be.

Just listened to this series again and struck by how very good it is - all 3 books which are available on audible. Gripping plot lines, very real characters and a supernatural talent you never question.

Goodness she writes so well. And the reader is excellent too.

I think this was my third listen. There will be more!

Such a good series

This story is good, but not brilliant. There are long parts were you just wish the author would get on with it and you find yourself only half listening, waiting for something to happen. My real issue with this book however is the narrator. Her voice is horrible, it's got an annoying warble that makes it sound like she's got a cold or is about to burst into tears. I almost stopped listening several times because her voice irritated me so much. Might try the next book and see if the story and narration improve.

Good
