Grave Sight (Harper Connelly Mysteries, Book 1)
I was intrigued by the concept of someone who can "read the dead", and it falls right in to Harris' favorite fictional devices. When you let yourself get over the concept that it isn't Sookie Stackhouse and it has a more serious bent (very little humor), you can enjoy it for what it is: a good, quick read and an interesting premise.

I love this series. Just wish there was more books of Harper Connelly out there. Great series to get into.
Grave Sight (Harper Connelly Mysteries, Book 1)
This is the best book/series of any of the thousands of mysteries that I have ever read.I like the characters, story lines and it just plain appeals to me. No beyond-gruesome autopsy descriptions or that kind of thing. Just an inventive situation with appealing characters. I wish there were more in the series than 5? but I read Ms. Harris is done with Harper Connelly. Too bad.
Grave Sight (Harper Connelly Mysteries, Book 1)
I read it a week ago, and can hardly remember it. The young woman in this episode seems old. It is totally realistic, and as boring as every day life. I would recommend this book to someone who does not enjoy fantasy.
Grave Sight (Harper Connelly Mysteries, Book 1)
I have read all the Southern Vampire novels and find them quite enjoyable, but I had a hard time with this new book. The character of Harper seems weak-willed and too dependent upon her "brother" for everything. She has some moments of standing up for herself, but immediately goes looking for her brother to save the day and make her life all right again.It's the desperateness of needing her brother that doesn't sit well with me. I guess I just have a hard time with needy, weak women characters. Her Sookie books are much better (Sookie can take care of herself)The story line is pretty good, if a bit slow at times, I just wish the characters were stronger.

I enjoy the Southern Vampire series and in fact am rereading them right now. These new characters are ok but not really that interesting. The "brother"/"sister" thing is a bit offsetting as well as the over-dependancy for Tolliver. This book has a good premise but needs work to make it on par with the SV series. Hopefully, with a little tweaking it can be improved. The basic story line is great, needs something more.
