I don't like him. I don't like the way he smells. I don't like the way he looks. I don't like his shoes. If I stuck a blade in him and drank the blood that shot out of the open wound, I wouldn't like the way he tastes.Half the Blood of Brooklyn

Badass. THAT is how you open a book.
Charlie Huston knows knows how to open a book and close it and everything in between. It's an awesome opener.
That one has the best ending of the series so far. Can't wait for book 4.
