Karma Queen (karmaqueen) | 260 comments Wow! So many devoted fans of the series. I was so exhausted last night that I fell asleep with my kindle in hand with only a paragraph left in the chapter I was reading. Hubby had to nudge me to take my glasses off and officially give up.

And, Karma Queen, your point would be?😏

Glad to know it’s not just me!

I guess my point is that no matter how compelling the book is, sometimes the physical takes over for your own good.

Sorry! I got your point:) Just trying to be clever. Falling asleep with a kindle in your hand would be considered normal for this group.

Robin (robinmy) | 1390 comments I hadn't picked up a book from this series in a long time. This week I read Memory in Death (In Death, #22) by J.D. Robb Memory in Death. Perfect time of year to read this mystery set at Christmas.

Roz Curney-Sherod (rcurneys) | 34 comments I'm starting "Delusion in Death (In Death, #35) " next week or by the weekend. Took a break after finishing "Celebrity" because that was just OK for me.

Denise ~The Procrastinating Book Diva~ (procrastinating_bookdiva) | 15 comments Although I've read the first 7 books several times, I'm up to #28 Promises In Death in my 2nd complete re-listen (can only listen to the audiobooks..Susan Ericksen is phenomenal!!) of the series. I haven't started it yet because as with Conspiracy In Death and a couple others in the series, I dread the emotional fallout which I know will absolutely gut me like the first time!!!

Yep. Those two did the same to me with each reread, Denise.

Nicole (propertyofhogwarts) | 1 comments I just finished reading Strangers in Death. I'm doing a reading challenge for my library where I have to read books from countries other than US. So I will have to put In death on hold :(

Robin (robinmy) | 1390 comments I read Haunted in Death. I usually like the novellas in this series, but this was my least favorite.

Jonetta (ejaygirl) | 15057 comments Mod
I struggled with that one, too.


message 1468: by Karen (new)

Karen (rhyta) | 184 comments It was rather ho hum, but a novella doesn't give much time for complex plots.

Denise ~The Procrastinating Book Diva~ (procrastinating_bookdiva) | 15 comments In an effort to "savor" the series, once I caught up to the new releases I generally put off reading them for as long as I can. However, needing an Eve fix I'm currently listening to Dark in Death.

Karen (rhyta) | 184 comments I'm doing the same thing Denise, the novella just wasn't enough!

I finished Secrets in Death (03/15) and getting ready to start Born in Death for the March Buddy read.

& have pre-ordered Feb. 2019 - Connections ID (#48), as well.

Veda  (moonchild63) | 104 comments Well as you know 'Leverage In Death' has been released & has been
Duly Devoured (at least by me!)

I await the next installment book #48

Connections in Death (In Death, #48) by J.D. Robb , which will be fitting for 2019 Reading Challenge! I am also awaiting an opportunity to jump into either a group or buddy read - kinda like someone waiting to jump rope 'Double-Dutch!' 😅

Happy 'In Death' Autumn Reading (& reads) 🎃🍂🎑

I finished listening to Reluctant Housemates by Linda Barrett, Pilgrim Cove #3, and it was so good being back in this seaside town. Here’s my review.

I’m listening to Clockwork Prince by Cassandra Clare, The Infernal Devices #2.

The bad part about starting the series late is that you can read as fast or as slow as you want knowing there is another one available. Then, before you know it, you're caught up and have to wait for Robb to release the next one. She is good about getting two out a year but it isn't enough. LOL When I started I think she was on twenty something. I think she was on Promises at the time I caught up.

Robin (robinmy) | 1390 comments I read Innocent in Death (In Death, #24) by J.D. Robb Innocent in Death. Great addition to the series. I couldn't put it down.

The bad part ab..."



Yea, I'm just glad that I'm really loving the series so that when I'm finished with one, I can go right into the next one. Like I just finished Portrait in Death and trying to pick up some of my other TBR books before I get sucked into reading like 5 in a row again. lol (not that it's a bad thing)

Hi Arlene, not sure if you’re an audiobook girl but if you are Susan Ericksen does a phenomenal job narrating the series. If you think you’re addicted reading the books, the audiobooks could possibly take said addiction to meteoric levels 😊

Moondance (moondance120) | 30 comments I just finished Innocent in Death. Wow! I had suspicions early in but didn’t think that was where the story was going. Then it all just hit you in the face. I love this series!


message 1485: by Jalayne (new)

Jalayne | 78 comments I've read a few of the books. However, I've always wanted to read the first few books. I'm reading and listening to the first book, "Naked in Death". It's interesting reading about Eve's suspicions about Roarke when you already know what happens between them. Despite this, I'm really enjoying reading about their relationship before it becomes a relationship.

There’s a huge payoff in reading this series in order because the character development, both main and secondary is pretty incredible! Urge you to consider doing so.

Yeah, I agree. My goal is to read the series chronologically. I may have to wait some time to read some of the books, yet it will be worth it. That is why I'm reading the first book now.

message 1492: by Moondance (new)

Moondance (moondance120) | 30 comments I’m a latecomer to the series. I absolutely love it! The novella Ritual in Death is up next then Promises in Death. I have collected most of the books and can go back to reread my favorite parts.

I go back to my favorite sections all the time. There are some scenes throughout the series that warm my heart.

I have some of the early books in hardback then I switched to the ebooks with the audio when they went on sale 10 or so year ago. I pick up old books when I see them at flea markets and yard sales.

I was in Goodwill a couple of years ago and found 20 of the books in hardcover. I have never grabbed a cart so quickly to fill it up!!


Vfields Don't touch my happy!  | 21 comments I love these so much I find myself hoarding them. Trying to not read them all back-to-back. Pacing at its best. It’s killing me...in the best way.
