Grave Surprise
Grave Surprise | Charlaine Harris
While in Memphis, psychic Harper Connelly senses-and finds-two bodies in a grave. One of a man centuries-dead. The other, a girl, recently deceased. Harper's investigation yields another surprise: the next morning, a third body is found-in the very same grave.

This is the second book in the Harper Connelly series. I enjoyed this one as much as the first. It was what I‘m starting to think of as a “cozy” urban fantasy. Not too dark or heavy, it suits my need for something entertaining.

An interesting second book in the Harper Connelly series. I didn't like it quite as much as the first one, but it was still good, and I'll be reading the 3rd book soon.

BethM I wish there were more of these. I loved this series. 3y

Just finished this one. It was a fun read but the story dragged out a little long and the ending wrapped up a little quick. I enjoyed though! Harper was struck by lightning which gave her the power to be near a dead body and know exactly how they died. A family hires her to find out what happened to their abducted child. She accidentally finds the body and finds out how she died but now to find out who killed her???

I enjoyed this very much. But I have to say, the big reveal for Harper was clear to me from the first book.

Finally risotto! Nobody in my family seems to care for it much, so I finally made myself some for lunch today!
@MrBook How do you make your food look so scrumptious on the photos? Or does risotto always look kind of goopy?

This book started with a lot of promise. Good storyline, interesting paranormal elements. It quickly fell apart for me and lost me interest. The characters are not engaging and I did not like either one. The lack of integrity and boring AF characters made this one I had no interest in finishing.

Thanks to @BookwormAHN for getting me turned on to this series! Book two and I still didn‘t see the killer coming. I‘m also really enjoying the romantic tension. Finished this one in the truck on the way to fishing because I was so into it. Book 2/6 for #bfcr2.

wanderinglynn Great job! 🙌🏻 I love Charlaine Harris‘s books. 👍🏻 5y

Audio baking even though it‘s 90degrees because I have bananas that need to be used. Also this narrator says room as “rume”- it‘s annoying.

LapReader Cool kitchen. 5y
KathyWheeler I hate when narrators pronounce words weirdly. I was listening to one book where the narrator was saying “kudzu” with a long u in both places! It‘s not pronounced like that. Since the word was used a lot in that book, I almost quit listening. 5y
xicanti I‘m trying to puzzle out the “room” doesn‘t equal “rume” thing, because in my accent they‘re basically the same. Do you say it so it kind of rhymes with “hum” in your accent? So it‘s like “rum?” Or is it “rume” that I pronounce differently from you? I know Americans say “roof” so it sounds like “ruff” to me, but somehow it never occurred to me that “room” could work the same way. 5y
BethM @xicanti this narrator makes it sound more like rum but with a slightly longer vowel. Im midwestern and have been told we say vowels funny. So to me it should sound like roo-m think Winnie the Pooh (Kanga‘s son with an m. Roof here is also roo-f 5y
xicanti @BethM ahhh. You and I do say room the same way then. I misinterpreted “rume,” since I was thinking the e on the end transformed the u into more of an oooh sound rather than an uh sound. 5y

When I was fifteen, I was struck by lightning. I recovered, mostly. I have a strange spiderweb pattern of red on my torso and right leg. I have headaches. I have many fears. And I can find dead people. That was the part that interested the professor.

A little slow to start, this book, however, kept my attention. Charlaine Harris delivers on the mystery and the development of Harper's character. Can't wait to read the 3rd book in the series.

#maybookflowers Day 7 I instantly thought of these two supernatural mysteries. I have read all 4 books in the Harper Connelly series and really wish Harris would have written a few more. I loved the first two in the Lockwood & Co. series and need to read the rest. #supernaturalmysteries

I just love this series❤️ This is particularly well-suited on audio. Harper is an interesting combination: she's reserved & resilient, but because the story is told from her perspective, we also see her vulnerabilities.

I also like how nuanced & complicated her relationship with Tolliver is. There is an edge to it, something beneath the surface. It will be something to see how it plays out.
