#IDLR #InDeathLongReadalong Book 16: Ch.1-5: Eve starts off the book in a happy mood b/c Summerset, her nemesis, is heading away for vacation. Unfortunately his plans get derailed by a broken leg and Roarke is faced with Summerset‘s fragility in a way. Eve gets tipped to a murder by Nadine and finds a young college student as the victim. ⬇️

StayCurious Eve starts delving into the victim‘s life which causes her to think about her own. Peabody is thinking of moving in with Mcnab. Are they ready for that big step? 4d
LitStephanie I know a lot is happening in chapters 1-5, but I must comment on Jackson Hooper, AKA uber hot English graduate student with a TA position. As a former English lit student with a 4d

LitStephanie graduate assistantship myself, I am here to tell you that there are no English Lit TAs "racking up girls like pool balls. That is NOT a thing. ??? 4d
LitStephanie Eve's joy about the coming absense of Summerset is pretty funny, as is her ongoing horror over Mcnab winning over her sensible aide. I like the comic relief. 4d
LiseWorks I actually felt bad for the cat. I know he didn't mean to be on the way, but sometimes they just are. I found Eve so funny with Peabody discussion of McNabb moving in, etc. And Eve being scared of Trish. 4d
TheAromaofBooks I kind of loved the little showdown between Eve and Nadine. The two of them are actually really similar in a lot of ways, but have chosen different paths. Good to see that McNabb has fully recovered from his serious injuries in the last book!! 4d
Ddzmini I enjoyed the way this one started out with some joy… until Galahad tripped Summerset and caused trouble… then Eve gets a call from Nadine so she can‘t stay and help Roarke with Summerset‘s fall… but finding a body in a trash compactor that‘s sad 😔 (edited) 3d

#IDLR #InDeathLongReadalong Book 16 - Our next read is set to start this week (sorry for the quick turnaround). We‘ll check in on Sunday Sept 7. As we get deeper into the series we‘re getting to know and love these characters- including her fun cast of side characters. I always want to know more about what‘s happening with everyone in this universe.

ShananigansReads Yes! Eve has the best found family. I love them all. 1w
TheAromaofBooks I really love the pace at which we're reading this series. Five chapters a week is pretty perfect - I love pretty much always having some Eve and Roarke on the go!! 1w
LitStephanie Starting this one right now! Can't wait to be a part of the discussion. 5d

My January #ReadOrDonate book has been on my shelves for YEARS.
It‘s also a book I packed before we left for the V.I in October so it made my decision very easy for me. 😉

julieclair Perfect! Enjoy! 8mo

What are we … are we our bodies or are we light … in the read an understanding the light is needed with a side story that is heartbreaking and touching this is a must read loved it 😊📖🙌🏽

So, I was about 1/3 into this one this morning, and it just stopped working. When I try to restart it, I get this pop-up. I waited a few hours, and it's still not working, and Google doesn't show anything for this error 201 (which I'm starting to think is that Scribd thinks I've used too many books this month). Anyone experienced this before?

Suet624 What a bummer. Sorry I have no info for you. 5y
Megabooks I‘m not sure, but that sucks! 5y
tracy.anne8 I have. It usually goes away at some point but I have had to wait a few days for it to resolve. I'm not entirely sure why it happens though. 5y

Final book for 2020!

I usually enjoy the books from the series, and there were some nice moments of banter between Dallas and Peabody. 4🌟

76 points (book, post, & 3 hours of reading)

Mehso-so

This one didn't suck me in as this series usually does, though that may also have had to do with the mood I'm in. The Roarke bits were the best part (and not just *those* bits. Ha!). But bonus - it was forecasted to rain all day and didn't! 🌤

Looks like it'll be rainy for the rest of the week, so I'm soaking in the sun while I can with a book and pina coladas 😋 #spreadloveitsthebrooklynway

MicheleinPhilly I am not at all mad about the rain. This past month has been 🥵. 5y

swishandflick @MicheleinPhilly Totally understandable! I think I'm mostly just mourning my usual summer beach vacation 😭 5y
MicheleinPhilly I hear you. I was supposed to be flying home from Spain today. ☹️ So yay, I‘m not on a plane for 8 hours, I guess. 🤷🏻‍♀️😩 5y

I really love the In Death series by JD Robb, even though I am miserably behind! I just finished number 16 tonight and as usual it was just as good as the others. I‘ve been addicted since the very first novel.
