Graveminder by Melissa Marr

I'd been anxiously awaiting the release of Graveminder. I loved Marr's Wicked Lovely series. I was looking forward to falling in love with Graveminder. I was not disappointed.
Rebekkah returns to Claysville after years of running. Her return is not under happy circumstances. Her grandmother passes. Rebekkah thinks she's returned for the funeral but Claysville and its residents have other ideas. To complicate matters, Rebekkah has some involved feelings for Byron, who's also recently returned to town. I could not put Graveminder down. The world Marr created was delicious. The right mix of creepy and romantic made Graveminder a wonderful read. The pace was a little slow but just quick enough to give you rich detail to make the world vivid.
I highly recommend this book. You will not regret the time you spend with Rebekkah and Byron. Others who shared their thoughts on Graveminder: Booked On Feeling, Chaotic Compendiums, Girls In The Stacks and Jenn's Bookshelves.

  3. I bought a copy of this yesterday, but I've got the Aussie cover which is pretty but not as creepy as this one. I like this one better :-) Glad to hear it's good, I'm looking forward to reading it.
