Welcome to Litsy!

#SeriesLove2024 I finished this in 2023 but I‘m posting my review in 2024. I have one gripe about this. Maybe more than one but this is the only one I can think of. Everyone keeps referring to Debra‘s boyfriend as too old for her, as an old man. For Pete‘s sake! He‘s not even 40!! How old is Debra anyway? She holds the rank of sergeant. Twenty-somethings don‘t get promoted to the rank of sergeant. (cont)⬇️

Parts of this delivered the Dexter story I've come to expect, but then some of it went way too off the rails for me. A cannibalistic vampire cult? Sounds like a good story, but things got way too messy and Dexter of course comes out of everything just fine.

Not my favorite in the series, but I'll still try the next one.

2-16-22: My 15th finished book of 2022! Book 5 in the series. Dexter is back and he is a new Dad! His daughter Lily Anne is perfect and he has decided to change his ways. Then his sister, Sergeant Deborah, pulls him into a case involving 2 missing girls, cannibals, and possibly vampires! In the meantime, his brother, Brian, who is even worse than Dexter, resurfaces and decides to play Uncle. Dexter doesn‘t know what to take care of first.

Lets see what happens next in the world of dexter morgan!

Not terribly long ago I had thought of myself as lucky to have family. Now, in one night, I had been ignored by my wife and children, replaced by my brother, and shoved into a late-night session of impossible expectation by my sister. My loving family—I would have traded them all for one decent jelly doughnut.

I am not really a political animal, although I understand it well enough—politics is just a way to indulge in my former hobby using metaphorical knives instead of real ones. But it seemed like no fun at all to me. All the careful maneuvering and backstabbing were so obvious and pointless and didn‘t really lead to anything all that exciting.

General consensus that Dexter is an #ISTJ is making more and more sense. 😉 🍩☎️

For the first time I felt a real kinship with these people. We were connected, one great ocean of humanity bound together by a common goal, and I found myself humming a pleasant tune and nodding with forgiveness and understanding toward each upraised middle finger that came my way.

It has been great to look at the many posts for #flawedcharacters today. There have been so many I love. My favorite #antihero has to be Dexter Morgan, though. I mean, he is a serial killer, and I root for him. The books have the same characters but a very different story line from the television series. They are fun to read. #octphotochallenge

It's a good book, with mystery, action, Deborah's swearing and especially Dexter. I always liked reading his train of thoughts and in this book he's a bit more human, so rambles a bit, but it's still good.

I love Dexter 😉
I'm at about 70% and it's really starting to get crazy!

"I think this is it", I said, trying to sound like David Caruso."

I really missed Dexter! But it's weird to find him all gooey and nice 😉 Thankfully he still has sharp tongue...
