Review: The Better Part of Darkness by Kelly Gay




The Better Part of Darkness by Kelly Gay
Genre: Urban Fantasy
Mass Market Paperback: 416 pages
Publisher: Pocket
Rating: 5/5

Charlie is an ass kicking cop, back from the dead, fighting crime in the city with partner Hank. There's a new danger that has hit the streets; a narcotic known as ash. It's their mission to uncover the identity of the source of the ash before it takes another victim; but will they be to late?

This book was so doggone great I have already got the next installment on preorder! I can't even begin to describe it to you because it has so many fascinating elements to it!

Two of the things that I enjoyed the best was Charlie's strength which I felt like she got most of from being a single mom and the other thing that kept me highly interested and my fingers busy was because unlike alot of books I couldn't guess the outcome of what was about to happen next in The Better Part of Darkness. It was like you were having to hang onto every word and page for fear of missing something!

Bring on the next installment! This was better than the thrill of riding a roller coaster!
