Great series. http://www.stopyourekillingme.com/J_Authors/Johnson_Craig.htmldern-day series, lots of laughs, scary parts too...

If you click one of the links at SYKM on these books, it takes you to Amazon for a review of that book.

In the case of this series, it's best to start with the first one where you meet the memorable and likable characters that show up in the rest of the stories...
