Awesome 1st book in a series!! Never too much info, just enough left open to build on. I think the grave witch is a very original idea and her world building is great. I agree, a tiny bit of Anita is there, throw in fun with Merry's Fae, but I was reminded more of Rachel and the Hollow series. I think her world and characters are original enough to make the series really take off. I can't wait for the next book and I hope it goes longer than the 3 books she's contracted for!!!
Still great the second time around. Now onto "Grave Dance"...
