   Yes! I love Roake and Eve as a couple, sometimes I like to go back through the books just to read about their relationship. Everytime a reference is made to how they met, I start "Naked in Death" again.

 I've read them all and am (impatiently) waiting for "Taken In Death" a short story in Mirror Mirror (rel. 10-2013) and Thankless in Death, which is already pre-ordered on my Nook.

     Just found the short story "Possession in Death". Somehow I had missed that one and I have read all the rest. Waiting for "Calculated in Death" from the library. Still have 17 people ahead of me after 3 months! :)

      Sometimes I feel that way, too Gabrielle. I remember how enthralled I was as I went from book to book. *sigh*

      Friday, May 31, 2013Where am I in the series? Back at the start.
After I raced through all the audio titles when I first discovered them and I had months to wait for the next one to be released (how many years ago is that now?) I started the practice (too new to be a "tradition") of going back and starting over, each time I finish the latest book. So, after "Delusions in Death", I went back to the beginning.
Unfortunately, life got in the way of this plan. Suddenly I’m still only on book 3 of the series, and there is yet another title on pre-order. At this rate who knows when I'll be "up-to-date" with the current title.
At least it is a fun way to end my days; my cat likes them too. As soon as she hears Susan Ericksen's voice, she comes running, plops on the bed and leans against me, expecting some serious attention.
It's a grand way to fall asleep. Oh, that everyone was fortunate enough to say … “My problem is I have a whole shelf of books I get to listen to.” “>
thanks.r.
 I do the same thing Rosemary. I go to sleep every night listening to Susan. But my dogs don't seem to be as appreciative lol

I LOVE that TikTac comes arunnin' when I turn on the cd. Sometimes, one CD will end and I still want to go on listening but TikTac doesn't want to let me move to change the CD. She can get downright huffy and THAT makes me laugh too. Fortunately, the CD's are each over an hour, so it gives her time to have her tiff and still come back.
My new cat, CoCo, is also getting the hint; the last few nights, when I turned on the CD, I had TikTac flopping on/against me and CoCo running OVER me to get to the window above my head and there they both plopped, happy as can be.
Maybe I can get TikTac and CoCo to send your dog a letter with insights into what they’re missing. (Arrr, Arrr)
Thanks.r.

I haven't been paying attention to this string; I just started to read through it and your post made me laugh; truth is usually the best humor ''>
 The last one I read was

   and it was freaking awesome! I LOVE when Eve and Roarke have these frictions and the whole thing goes to hell. Pretty intense and angsty.

      Whoo...this is a really good one...I know I say that for many but be prepared to get emotional:)
    
  
  
   I'm a newbie. I'm about 50% into the 1st book, Naked in Death, getting familiar with the characters. Enjoying the series so far!

      Mo, don't believe that!!! All that have finished the series would recommend you read them in order. Of course you can read them out of order but you'll regret it in the long run.

 This is one series where it's important to read in order. Otherwise, you can't really appreciate the growth each character goes through. :) As well, you might get spoilers for previous books if you read newer ones first.

     Me neither! I always, always read a series in order. There's always someone mentioning something that happened on previous books.

      Mo wrote: "Someone mentioned to me that you do not really have to read them in order - anyone?????"NO! Read this series in order! (Read any series in order). There is alot of character development and character relationships that happens during the course of the series and the best way to experience that is to read in order.
        
      I agree, Julia, character development that happens over the course of these books is best experienced in order. There are some series out there where each book features a different person's story (maybe a brother, sister, friend's story, etc.) and it isn't as crucial that they be read in order. The In Death series is not like that.
    
  
  
   That's one of the things I love about this series. The main and even secondary characters are all repeats and mentioned in the books.

      I'm seriously thinking about reading the series over again. Is anyone else reading or rereading the first book, 
   ?

     Although the in Death series is my absolute favorite, I've had to take a break from them and read other authors. I had been reading her books so much that I was finding I was getting burned out. Since that is totally unacceptable to me, I decided to take a break. I am just waiting for her latest book to come out.

      Oh, me too, Dee. I have to switch around especially with a series with so many books in it. I like so many different romance genres that I find I like to switch it up...read a few of one then another. Keeps my mind fresh plus gives me a chance to enjoy some of the awesome new authors that I have discovered.
