J.D. Robb discussion

How's everyone doing?

Hi Christine!

Hi my name is Carmen. I started reading the In Death series this year. I am currently trying to finish up Holiday in Death and then continuing with Midnight in Death and so on. I really like the relationship between Eve and Roarke. They have such a good connections but I also like the back and forth statements between Sommerset and Eve. They are funny together. Dr. Mira is so caring of Eve. I really am enjoying the books and will continue.

Welcome, Carmen! It's great that you're so early in the series and you can join in on our Buddy Read discussions.

Enjoy the group.

Welcome Carmen. Peabody and Dallas have some great exchanges too as their relationship develops. Nice to see a gr friend in another group.

Hi everyone! I'm Jen. I just started reading the series this past fall, and am about twenty books in now. I'm completely hooked. Love the relationship between Eve and Roarke, and I'm fascinated by how Roberts manages to balance that romance (and keep it exciting) with the introduction of so many stellar characters, and still write genuinely interesting cases. I'm a big fan of mystery but read very little romance, so I was skeptical of the series when I first started. A friend who knows me well insisted that I would love them. She was right. Now I can't get enough, and the series has really influenced my own writing. Thrilled to meet fellow fans!

Welcome, Jen! You sound like the same way I felt when I first started. You're going to love this reading journey.

Thanks Jonetta. I'll look into that. Hi Colleen *waves* nice to see GR friend too. :)

Welcome, Carmen & Jen! Sounds like you both have already discovered the outstanding way Robb handles the character introductions, development, & relationships in this series. And I promise you, that continues all the way through! Enjoy!

Thanks Sandra.
Colleen your right Eve and Peabody do have a good relationship too. I love when Eve calls Peabody out on something like the issue she has with McNab. It's too funny. McNab is funny and quirky is his own way too. LOL

Hi Jen! Welcome.

Hi all, my name is Alicia and I'm a looooong time fan of the series. I have no idea how many times I've re-read all the books, but I do know it's a lot.
Anyway, I just saw this group come across my feed and thought it sounded like fun. Plus, I get to talk about Roarke to my heart's content, right? ;)

Oh, Alicia, we NEVER tire talking about Roarke! You're definitely in the right group. Welcome!

Hi Alicia! Welcome to Roarke Land! Happy to have you joining us! Always happy to talk about these books & characters. :)

Hello!! New to the group! Read a few of the books over the last couple years & now working on reading in chronological order. Started at Christmas & currently at book 16.

Hi, Jennifer! Glad you found us and you're reading the series in order. Welcome!

Welcome Jennifer! Happy to have you join us. We have a buddy read going that is about ready to start Reunion in Death. Love to have you join in.

Hi, I'm Minou. I stumbled upon books 1-5 at my local used book store one day and decided to buy them all. I read the first two books last year, and now I'm picking up the series again. I'm currently reading Rapture in Death. I still can't believe there's so many books in the series, I hope I can catch up.

Looking forward to discussing with everyone!

Welcome Minou! Glad to have you join us. You've got some great reads ahead of you. Love to discuss them with you.

welcome Minou.....you have so many great reads ahead of you.

Hi, Minou and welcome to the group! Don't worry about the number of books in the series...just have fun and enjoy the reading journey.

Hello my name isCristy I am legally blind and was bedridden for my oldest child during the pregnancy. I received a talking book in the mail of one of the in death series. I immediately fell in love with it and ordered as many of the series that they had on tape. I caught up today most recent books when I was bedridden for my youngest child during that pregnancy. I received an e-reader from my husband for my birthday with all of the books already downloaded for me. One of the best presents ever! I have reread the series 2 more times and enjoy it every time. There are times when I don't want to go to work because I want to finish a book in the series and I have already read two or three times.

Hi Cristy. Welcome to the group! The audios of this series are awesome. So glad you discovered them. And what a great thoughtful husband you have! :)

Oh, Cristy, you belong here! Of course, we all understand your need to re-read this series and how it's still like the very first time. By the way, your husband rocks!!

Welcome!

Hi, I just started listening to the In Death series a couple of months ago when Audible offered book one at a reduced price. I had resisted because of the futuristic spin, even though several friends had recommended the books. Now I think I have listened to about ten of the books.

The narrator is great.

Ten books in two months...Tarri, you are officially hooked! Welcome to this wonderful club of addicts:)

Hi Tarri! Welcome to the group. I also resisted starting this series many years ago because it was "futuristic". Finally relented and was immediately hooked! Happy to have you joining us!

Hi my name is Corey. I just finished reading book 11 & am loving them! I am so excited to find a group dedicated to this series! I can't believe it took me so long to discover something so wonderful. I'd like to send a big thank you to whoever is the moderator. Super excited to become a member of the group!

Welcome to the group, Corey! Love your enthusiasm about the series and we certainly get it.

Enjoy!

Hi Corey! Happy to have you join us. You're only 5 books away from catching up with the BR's. Of course, we're happy to discuss any of the books anytime. Welcome!

Roarke *sigh* :)

LOL Carmen...every single time - **sigh**

Welcome, Gabrielle! Is this your first reading of the series?

I asked the question poorly:) I meant to ask were you reading the books in order and it seems you are.

Take your time and enjoy.

Is it crazy in my the only one? I really want this book series to become a television series. I would love to watch each book be turned into 3 to 4 episodes and be able to watch Eve every week.

No, you're not crazy! You should check out our casting topic:)
