Concoction of a Review:


Let us just start off right away with me admitting that the Mad Scientist just LOVED  The Gravedigger's Brawl.  Yes, the Spooky and Sexy was just that good.  A short 250 pages but Abigail Roux had me wrapped around her little finger as the plot and characters were just so well developed!

The Virginia Historical Society's head curator, Wyatt Case, is about to loose his job if he does not step up his game and come up with a brilliant mastermind exhibit to bring more people in during a renovation.  He is very practical man... that is until he lays eyes on Ash, a exuberant flair bartender, at the local Steampunkery bar Gravedigger's.  The Mad Scientist even thought Ash was quit lickable.  A Victorian fashion sense, kohl lined eyes, and a tongue ring.  *waggles eyebrows*

I loved reading about the tentativeness yet immediate attraction between Ash and Wyatt.  Wyatt makes a lark out of himself when he ducks out of Ash's apartment after first nights treats.  He quickly regrets his decision.  Racked with guilt he attempts to make amends. 

Here is how I picture Ash:  
"Why is it always the wackadoos who're good in bed?" he said sadly. (24%)

Ash smiled.  Why Wyatt seemed so fond of the tongue rings, he couldn't guess...  other than the obvious reasons, of course.  But Wyatt didn't really seem turned on by them  so much as charmed.  Mostly.  mention of the vibrating one had certainly stopped him in his tracks.  (46%)


Every year Gravedigger's Tavern throws a huge costume party known as the Gravedigger's Brawl.  The party is inside and out of the Gravedigger's.  They are busy preparing for this occasion when appliances and radios start going bump bump in ways that make even grown men jitter. 

Now, you maybe thinking what about the Spooky part is I dutifully mentioned to you.  Indeed the Mad Scientist has not forgotten!  Occurrences of the strange and the odd were happening around the workers of Gravedigger's Tavern yet they were brushing it off with explainable thoughts.  After all, Gravedigger's Tavern was once a old Victorian house which housed secrets of its own. 

The Mad Scientist thoroughly enjoyed The Gravedigger's Brawl! 

I think you will too!


** Thanks to NetGalley for the ability to read & review this book which so ever did not influence or bend my thoughts in any manner.  All Mad thoughts are presented in the right mind of a twisted brain of the Mad Scientist!**
