A surprisingly fun, readable book. I liked it, especially its novel take on familiar stories of the Fae. Being a "grave witch" took the story to unexpected areas, and while I docked a star for the overly chicklitty porn sequence (which felt out of place and like a cheap selling point), it was a good book. 
 After my "Preparing for #4 re-read": Bumped up to 4 "Really Liked It" from my initial "Liked it" score, mostly because knowing where the story was going over the next few books made a lot of things make more sense. Good, solid fun. Not great literature but a great time reading it. (And yes, the overly chicklitty porn is still cringeworthy.)
