Judgment in Death | J. D. Robb

Pickpick

I finally took the time to finish this for #InDeathLongReadalong …I‘m a bit behind! But, I think this was another great addition to the series. We see a more vulnerable Eve in some ways as she navigates grief and love. We also see a very strong Eve who speaks of walking with the dead. A bit of a sentimental end. #LitsyAToZ #LetterJ

LiseWorks Absolutely 2d
StayCurious So glad you‘re still with us! 2d

#IDLR #InDeathLongReadalong book 12.5 Ch.6-10 and review: sorry for the late post. I have the world‘s worst cold right now and even reading is a challenge. I enjoyed this whirlwind novella but I found it a bit too speedy for some bits of info that were divulged - like the fact that Roarke‘s father could have known Eve‘s in Dallas. We‘ll have to spend longer on that tidbit I think. ⬇️

StayCurious I enjoyed that this took place off planet - that was a neat futuristic twist and allowed us to see more of Roarke‘s dream world Olympus. The next book is Seduction, which is actually the first In Death book I ever read. We will skip May and read this starting in June to give those of us who need it a bit of a break. Let me know if you want to be added or removed from the main tag list. 3d
Librarybelle I‘m almost finished with Judgment (life has been a big mess lately). This should give me plenty of time to catch up for Seduction in June! I‘m loving this…thanks for continuing to host this!! 3d

LiseWorks I could use a break as well. Lol. I enjoyed this off world book as well. 3d
Ddzmini Agree with that fact about the fathers since ones from Ireland and the other from the states… but it could happen as we don‘t really know that much about Eve‘s parental history 3d
TheAromaofBooks Yes, I definitely want more info about both the fathers. I thought this one had some good twistiness for how short it was. Thanks for continuing to host this - I am not sure I would have ever gotten around to this series if it wasn't for this group read, and I am really loving them!! 3d

#IDLR #InDeathLongReadalong Book 12.5: Ch.1-5: this one takes place on Olympus which is a neat change from the norm. At a police conference, a hero cop‘s bodyguard is murdered. This hero cop has it out for Roarke and Eve - since she refused to help take down her husband. But would this cop go so far as murder to get his man? This one has tricky family dynamics- as usual - but this time it‘s Roarke‘s father stepping into the mix. ⬇️

StayCurious With Eve away from her territory will she be able to solve the case and protect her man? 2w
LiseWorks We get to see more about Roarke as well. And he gets a little testy with Eve 2w

StayCurious @LiseWorks he always gets testy when it comes to his past 2w
TheAromaofBooks This was a fun way to get everyone off-planet - we still have the whole gang, but with really different dynamics since it isn't their turf. 2w
StayCurious @TheAromaofBooks especially Morris haha 2w
LiseWorks I just noticed you have Sam and Dean as Skinner & Peabody @StayCurious 😄 2w

#IDLR #InDeathLongReadalong Ch.15-end: things finally fell into place and connections were made between Yost, the people who hired him, Magda‘s scummy son, and yes, Roarke‘s old friend. It was a sad ending - between this and previous stories, Roarke has lost several of his links to his past. I liked seeing Summerset in his element and seeing his bond with Roarke. I‘m interested to see how things will work out for Peabody and Mcnab. ⬇️

StayCurious Our next book will be Interlude in death, a novella. First check in will be next Sunday. Hope to see you there! 3w
LiseWorks I agree about Roarke old life is just that his old life. I can't wait to see how Peabody and McNabb make out. Summersett is still a mystery. 3w
Librarybelle I‘m not reading the comments, but popping in to say I‘m still behind, however I hope to catch up soon! 3w
TheAromaofBooks I was so sad that Roarke's friend was in on it, even though I suspected he was. 3w

#IDLR #InDeathLongReadalong I‘m very sorry for missing last week‘s post. Forgetting to hit the renew button led to me losing access to my library ebook for a few days. I‘ve got it back now but I‘m behind so I‘m going to give myself one more week to finish (especially considering April‘s book is shorter). Sorry to those who are finished and waiting! Anyway, to briefly discuss the above 4 chapters - ⬇️

StayCurious main takeaways are that Peabody needs to make up her mind or she‘ll lose McNab. Not sure why she‘s still playing around with their feelings. I also feel frustrated for Eve over this killer and the Feds botching her operation. I‘m really confused over who is pulling the killer‘s strings. (edited) 4w
TheAromaofBooks So for April are we reading the short story Interlude in Death, and not the next full-length novel?

I also got aggravated with Peabody, but in fairness I think she thinks McNabb isn't serious about their relationship/it's just physical. But still, answering a phone call and setting a date with one guy while you're in the middle of making out with another is a bit cold 😂

Librarybelle I‘m behind too, still finishing last month‘s book—life has been complicated. Maybe I‘ll be caught up by next week! 😂 4w
StayCurious @TheAromaofBooks yes April is Interlude in death 4w
LiseWorks Oh I'm glad I'm not the only one mad at Peabody but McNab isn't helping either. 4w

#InDeathLongReadalong #IDLR Ch.6-10: someone is using a vicious killer for hire to get to Roarke, killing people who work for him. And since Roarke owns half the world there are millions of targets and no way to know who‘s next. So who is behind the contract? Who is trying to get to Roarke? And can Eve keep him in line so that he doesn‘t get himself into trouble while trying to find the culprit? ⬇️

StayCurious Some great Eve moments while she tries to take care of Roarke in these chapters. She even gets along with Summerset for a minute. 1mo
LiseWorks Yes it was interesting to see her looking after him. Even a soother came to mind. 1mo

#InDeathLongReadalong #IDLR Ch.1-5: a young maid is killed in Roarke‘s hotel by a professional killer. And Eve feels Roarke is the true target. Coincidentally, a ghost from Roarke‘s past shows up. He‘s charming for sure but Eve is keeping a close eye on Mick. I think he‘s up to something - but is he the one who hired the assassin? I‘m not sure.
