J.D. Robb discussion

WELCOME EVERYONE!

Welcome Sirena an Cindy

Hi Sirena, welcome to the group.

Welcome, MsG! I appreciate how you've already joined our discussions and thanks for introducing yourself. Enjoy!

Welcome everyone! We love having you hear & discussing books with you. Jump in & enjoy!

Hey everyone, I'm Pauline. I've been reading this series for years. huge dilemma when ereaders became available because I already had more than 20 in my bedroom bookshelves. I still add to the shelf just not as regularly because I promised my husband that when I got a kindle he would stop falling over books!

Welcome, Pauline! I know you probably want to still have the complete series on your shelf:)

Hey everyone! I'm Kim, I have been reading this series on and off as my fun crime novel for a break between my nonfiction crime reading. I've been lurking a bit and like what I see so far!

Hi Kim! Thanks for introducing yourself and I hope you continue to enjoy the group.

You're right Jonetta!

Hi Pauline & Kim! Welcome Aboard! Happy to have y'all join our discussions.

Pauline - I had collected the paperbacks long before I started on Kindle. I'm now doing my reread with ebooks and/or Audio.

Kim - No need to just lurk here - join in the madness! :)

I'm a fairly new audio book lover and haven't heard any J D Robb ...yet!

I don't listen to the series (I was 35 books in before I heard about the audiobooks) but those that do swear by Susan Ericksen's award-winning performance.

You will love the audio. Susan Ericksen is fantastic narrating this series.

Erm, totally new to GoodBooks but....I'm Matthew Ellis, and the first book I can remember reading is Glory in Death, obviously not the first book but still. I have probably read the In Death series over....50 times. Give or take the few that are my favorite. The In Death series is something my mother gave to me. We're both fanatics. ^^

Welcome, Matthew! 50 times?? That's amazing and you may be the leader here in the number of rereads of the series. We are glad to have you here.

Hi Matthew. Welcome to the group. Always happy to chat with a fan of the series.

I second, third, and fourth that! I hardly ever just read the books anymore. Just love listening to them. Just a much better experience!

Hey, I'm Amy. I got introduced to this series by my MIL, who gave me "Memory in Death" and "Innocent in Death". I fell in love. I have almost a full collection both on my Kindle and on a bookshelf in my bedroom. :) I'm addicted.

welcome Amy you are in good company, we are a bunch if addicts ourselves.

Welcome to the group, Amy! Totally understand your addiction.

Question...did you go back and start from the beginning?

Hi Amy! Welcome to the group! Always happy to have another fan to discuss these books with.

Jonetta - I read a few more out of order but then started from the beginning. It started as whichever ones I could get my hands on lol.

Great! Just wanted you to have a wonderful reading experience.

Hello People, I'm Ruman. I abso-freaking-lutely adore In-Death series. I complete the book in one sitting if I like the book, no matter the time or place. When I started reading Naked In Death, it was I think 11 or 12 in the night, and guess what I did complete it in that entire single night. God, books are giving me insomnia *sigh*. Anyways I started the series last december and completed all the In Death books released until then by December itself, or shall I say in 20-25 DAYS. I know, I know, I am a bookaholic. But its not my fault, its the author's fault for wriring such amazing books.
Man I can talk and talk and talk. I am dying to tell how awesome Eve is and God, there are just no words for Roark. They are my favourite characters amongst all the books I've read ever, and trust me when I say I've read some pretty amazing characters. I think I love Eve almost as much as Roark. This series is friggin best one. It has Romance, Suspense, Mystry, humor and everything in perfect amount. God, maybe I should stop now.

Hi Ruman and welcome! Yes, you'll fit right in here as we completely understand your addiction to the series:)

Hey Ruman! Welcome to the group! You are definitely in the right place. And since you love to talk about these awesome books & characters, please jump into our buddy reads anytime. We have just started Visions in Death. Some are reading for the first time & many are rereaders...we have a great time chatting!

Hi. Thank u guys or shall I say gals.lol. Umm, Sandra I was wondering where exactly the discussion is going on. I'd totally love to gush about my love for Eve and Roark.

Ruman, look in the In Death Buddy Reads folder. We are just finishing up discussions on Divided but you'll find that if you pop into any of the previous BR threads to chat, we will join you there! Next up: Visions. BR thread here:

Hi my name is Martha and I've been reading the In Death series since they first came out and have every book ( the original covers ) not the reprinted ones love this series I just finished the festive in death book I think the Christmas time books are my favorite ones we get more Eve and Roarke the personal side I have always wondered why Roarke doesn't have New York friends of his own all the players in the book came from Eve and the job.just courious thanks

Welcome, Martha! Love hearing from members who were with the series at the beginning.

I think all of Roarke's associates were business relationships. Plus, he was quite the ladies man before Eve as she's always bumping into his past women:)

Hi Martha! Welcome to our group! Sounds like you have quite the collection there with all original covers. Join in our discussions anytime - we have ongoing buddy reads & love discussing these books.

Hi! I'm Lisa. I've been reading and re-reading the In Death series for years now. My g'ma is actually the one that turn me to this series and now I can't get enough. I'm joining this group in hopes that someone can get this info for me: Eve always had trouble with her car. Which book was it when Rourke gave her the latest car?

I've been searching through the series and can't seem to locate it. I appreciate the help!

I'm excited to have group to talk about the series!

Welcome Lisa! Roarke gave Eve that car in Promises in Death as an early anniversary gift.

Enjoy the group!

Hi Lisa! Welcome to the group! We have an ongoing buddy read of the series going & welcome your input.

Thank you! I will look for it!

Hi all!
My mother handed me a copy of Naked in Death several years ago. She had read and enjoyed it, but not being a big reader she hadn't gone on with the series. I tried it out and was quickly drawn in. I have all the In Death books in audio form through Audible.com and listen to them regularly. I even got my husband hooked on the series by playing the books in the car.

Welcome TC! Quite an accomplishment getting your husband in.

Welcome to the group, TC! You've made the series a family affair:)

Hi TC! Welcome to the group. I love the audios - great job hooking your husband on them!

I joined just so I could ask one question. I was reading and loving the series then I stopped reading mysteries. Well I'm back and I can't remember what was the last book I read. What book did Mavis have her baby?

Welcome to the group! Happy to have you join us. I believe the book you're talking about is Born In Death.

Welcome back, Vfields!

Wow, that was so obvious it's embarrassing! Thank you Sandra Cross My Heart!

You're most welcome! Nothing to be embarrassed about...

Hello all, I am Kevin and been reading (listening to audio books) almost all of the In Death series, as well as many other books.

Hi Kevin! Welcome to the group. The audio books of the In Death series are very good. I'm utilizing them as I reread the series.

Welcome to the group, Kevin! Thanks for joining and we hope to learn more about your reading experiences.

Susan Ericksen is one of the best narrators I have listened to, I commute an hour to 90 minutes everyday and these books really help while driving to and from work.
