Welcome to Litsy!

#IDLR #InDeathLongReadalong Ch.6-10: this book definitely has interesting twists and turns. Another cop is dead and another cop was dirty. Eve knows Ricker was involved. She goes after the goons that Ricker sent after her and when she gets one to flip he dies conveniently. Is Ricker untouchable? Roarke is mad at Eve for going after Ricker on her own, then tethering him when he wants to go after him in revenge. ⬇️

#IDLR #InDeathLongReadalong Ch.1-5: a cop is killed - and it‘s way overkill - inside an upscale strip club owned by Roarke. Eve is determined to find the killer, and dig into the secrets the cop may have been carrying. Was he on the take? She gets warned by IAB and the cop‘s finances point to yes. But Eve still needs to find the killer-while juggling jurisdictional BS. ⬇️

#IDLR #InDeathLongReadalong A few things for us fans of the series - there‘s a new In Death cookbook coming out this year with food and recipes from the world of In Death! How fun is that? And I read this interesting interview with Nora Roberts about reaching book 60: https://www.audible.com/blog/jd-robb-bonded-in-death-audio-interview - she‘s so impressive!

#IDLR #InDeathLongReadalong We‘re on to book 11! We will stick to our usual reading schedule and will check in on Feb 9, 16, 23, and finish on March 2. I‘m looking forward to seeing how things are progressing with our characters, especially Peabody and Mcnabb. As always, let me know if you want to be added or removed from the tag list.

#InDeathLongReadalong #IDLR Sorry for the late post - I missed my cue (haha - get it, because theatre?) Ch.16-end / review — as usual we were led down some dark passages in this one, and it hit close to home for Eve. The victim in this case was deplorable- and Eve ended up feeling for the killer. I thought the twist and reveal was pulled off nicely - Dame Christie would have been proud. ⬇️

#InDeathLongReadalong #IDLR Ch.11-15: the more we learn about the victim Draco, the more he turns out to have been a really rotten guy. An altercation from 24 years ago is revealed and as Eve digs, she may have found more unsettling information about Draco and his last lover Carly. Secrets never stay buried. And this one is a real killer. Meanwhile, Roarke gives Mcnab dating advice to woo Peabody, and Eve tries to woo Roarke with a romantic dinner

Mid-month Checkin

I thought reading Witness in Death would cover B4 and I‘d have a double bingo but I forgot I made I1 an #IDLR square so that won‘t work 🤦🏾‍♀️🤣🤣🤣

#InDeathLongReadalong #IDLR Ch.6-10: Eve has a very interesting cast of characters to deal with - some of whom hated the deceased. We find out the victim was pretty much an a—hole and a sexual deviant (poor Nadine). He had a tape of her that if it got out would be pretty bad. What was he planning to do with it? Was that why he called her for dinner? Or was it just to discuss old times? ⬇️

#InDeathLongReadalong #IDLR Ch.1-5: All the world‘s a stage…we‘re thrust into the world of the theatre and the actors that live and breathe it. A man is killed in front of Eve and 3000 other people and the question is not who did the actual deed but who switched out the prop knife with a real one. The victim is much hated so there seem to be a lot of motives. ⬇️

#inDeathLongReadalong #IDLR Happy soon to be January! We‘re on to book 10 of our series and we‘ll keep to our same reading pace with a check in each Sunday. I believe there are 22 chapters in this book so in the final week we‘ll finish off with 7 chapters. If you want to be taken off the main tag list please let me know. Looking forward to 2025 with you (hard to believe that‘s sort of close to when our books take place!)
