Just finished Conspiracy and it was a tear jerker. It has been 5 years since I last listened and it was like a new book to me. So good

Definitely a favorite of mine. I always find it interesting that time & time again, I can reread the In Death books & enjoy them just like the first time...sometimes, more.
Our group In Death buddy reads is getting very close to "caught up"!! We'll read Thankless, Taken, & Concealed in August. Then Festive & Obsession in Sept. We came close to being ready for Devoted on 9/15!

Sounds like you'll make it, Kris! That's awesome.

Love the audios! Good to hear you're ready for Devoted, Gabrielle.

I will still participate in all the discussions but I it's been my goal to catch up on one big series before I start another lol.

I'm #3 on 2 copies of the audio. I really hope they buy one more lol.



**POSSIBLE SPOILERS:
It seems like here Eve has grown so much yet hasn't lost her "Eveness", if that makes sense. I adore how she attempts to set up a romantic evening for Roarke, how utterly bewildered she is wrt choosing from Roarke's extensive collection of cutlery and crockery, ETC - LOL. How she lets up on her usual stringent rules to protect her new friends, Peabody and Nadine.
I'm enjoying the lighter moments: (view spoiler) ["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>

I LOVED the side stories in this one, too. Especially that dinner scene:)

Beeg - the character development in this series is just awesome. Following their lives from book to book in a series as long as this one really gives you an opportunity to come to know them like family. There is so much growth & evolving of relationships. I'm drawn to this series by the characters more than anything. Although, the cases are certainly top notch also.

Eve is really a trial to everyone and her interpersonal relationships take a lot of heat in this one. I really forgot (view spoiler) the twist at the end. But it was a good escape for me so glad I read it again.

Yeah, how could one child be so unlucky.

It's really amazing that she survived the start she had in life...and made herself into the person she is now. At least, her luck changed for the better when she met Roarke. :)

Lol! It is the downside. There's a totally different feeling you have when you know there's one waiting for you whenever you're ready. When you catch up, you become aware of the absence of that security.

I'm ready for Festive & Obsession in Sept. and then, finally, caught up & ready for Devoted! Can't believe how far our buddy reads have come.


I do the same for some books.

If I can't get the audio right away, I will check it out in hard-copy, but I have to own the audios. (Almost have a complete set!)
