Hey Mo!! so cool you are reading the serie too!! Are yoiu gonna read the others too?
Would be so cool to buddy read!

Hey, all! Here's the topic for organizing your Buddy Reads. Good luck!

http://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/9...

New to this forum and LOVE these books!! I've been reading NR forever and discovered her In death series a few years back. I've read various ones out of order but have decided to go back to the beginning and read them in order. I've made it up to Loyalty in Death so Witness in Death is next. I just love watching Eve and Roarke's relationship grow and the the secondary characters are wonderful too!!!.

I'm waiting for the newest to be released and rereading for the fifth time I think the entire series with a friend who is reading them for the first time. I will likely re-read the last few just before the new release if we haven't gotten that far by September.

Hey, Samantha! Glad you decided to join in.

Beth, congrats on the fifth go-round. They really just don't get old.

Waiting for Calculated In Death.

buddy read??

Yup

umm, what is that mean??

Sorry. That is a big yes.

I think she means "buddy read."

Deena, this is where members arrange amongst themselves to read the same book during the same time (for example, Imitation in Death during August).

Here's the link to where buddy reads get organized.

Gotcha, yes. My misunderstanding :)

Yes, I think Ness was looking for a Buddy Read for that book. Ness, is that correct?

oh, sorry.. my mistake for not knowing :( by the way, which book you want?

I am now halfway through the fifth one, "Ceremony in Death". Loving it!

buddy read??"

sorry ! just saw your response ! yeahh of course !!

I started from the beginning and I have finished the series in just under 15 weeks! This is an amazing and fun series and I have thought about starting the series over again but I think I'll catch up on some other books before I go back and do it again. I recommend this series to everyone I talk books to.

You sound soooo familiar, Brooke:) Congratulations on your first read of the series.

Hey Brooke! This is the best & longest series I know of...love it. BTW, Susan & I are just starting the series over. Just started Naked In Death if you want to do it again!! We've decided to take it nice and slow as we're both reading a lot of other books too. Jump in with us if you decide to start again!

Definitely! Anyone who wants to join us, please do!

You should set up a buddy read topic for the books as you read them so you can chat as you're going through the stories.

I just started reading immortal in death...

Just started . I just can't wait to get to . \o/

Totally understand!

Just finished Calculated in Death. I have Big Jack to read still and then I will be all caught up and waiting for the new book.

Congrats, Mo!

I am about to start "Midnight in Death". As I don't think this short story will last me long, I also bought "Conspiracy in Death". Obsessed? Me?! Nah... I still have a life, I swear!

LOL...yeah, just like the rest of us, Catherine!

Lol. My husband told me (right after I ordered these for my Kindle today): "Right. Looks like I won't see my wife for a few weeks again...". I don't know whether I should warn him that these are only book 7.5 and 8 out of 37... haha

Lol! Catherine, Conspiracy in Death will make you cry and you won't be able to put it down. Plan accordingly.

Thanks for the warning! Lol. It's a shame I work Monday to Friday... I am sure many share my feeling!

conspiracy is one of my top 5 faves of the series.

I have read and read again the series many times. I am now anxiously awaiting Thankless.

Where am I in the series? Waiting impatiently for Thankless.
While I'm waiting, I'm going to start re-reading the series w/ the Buddy threads here.

YooHoo and we're excited you're joining the buddy reads, Julia!

Thanks Starshine! I'm upset w/ myself that I wasn't able to re-read NID and join that thread (family issues) but I really enjoyed reading everyone else's comments so I'm really looking forward to this one.

I am so excited! I am getting my hands on Calculated In Death today!

I am also really excited that both Mirror Mirror and Thankless come out AFTER Calculated....no spoilers :)

Yay!

I just finished Delusion today :) I thought it started out a little slow, and at first I didn't like it. There wasn't much Peabody or Roarke in it for awhile! But pretty soon it started picking up steam and by the end I was super totally invested! Loved it!

I liked this one, too. By the way, where have you been??? You were missed.

Who? Me?

Yes.

I just finished "Conspiracy in Death" this morning and gosh did I love it! I got so angry at times, then upset, then happy... My husband must think I am going soft in the head! I mean, what you read actually does affect your behavior during the first half hour or so after you quit reading... Anyway, it's the case for me! lol

I have now just started "Loyalty in Death". I don't normally read reviews of books before I read them (as I don't want too much spoilers) but I stumbled upon some regarding that book yesterday... It seems many people actually really disliked Eve in that book. Thing is, I am wondering why... We know she is hot tempered and a bit of a shrew... Isn't it why we love her? ;)
