Witness in Death | Nora Roberts, J. D. Robb

#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. ⬇️

StayCurious And who happens to hold a grudge over the victim for a past slight-Nadine Furst - she was in the wrong place at the wrong time and the real killer may use that to his advantage. This one is set to become dramatic, folks. 5d

StayCurious @Librarybelle @ShananigansReads @Gissy @AileenRR @Read4life @TheAromaofBooks @MrsV @CoverToCoverGirl @Liseworks @LitStephanie 5d

LiseWorks Yes, and of course, Roarke is involved. 5d

TheAromaofBooks The Nadine angle is a fun one. And I'm so rooting for McNab + Peabody 😂 5d

repost for @StayCurious:

#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!)

Reading Challenges Journal: Let's Do Some Reading Challenges! | J&c Publishing

Cannot BELIEVE I am working on a reading journal for ***2025*** That's not a real date!!!! @PuddleJumper is responsible for most of my challenges this year, although @lauredhel is also doing some work 😂 This year: #ISpyBingo #100YearsofBooks (and finishing @Librarybelle 's #192025 ), #Pantone2025 #Roll100 #GottaCatchEmAll and #BookChain

Not pictured - #ReadtheUSA #WickedWords @AsYouWish #FourFoursin25 @lauredhel #FictionalTraveler @julieclair ⬇

BookishMadHatter I've started on my 2025 book journal too, but I'm scaling it back a little this year. I find I have to use a bunder because if I run out of space and need to split a section in a bound journal my poor brain has a meltdown and I end up having to start all over. 3w

TheAromaofBooks @BookishMadHatter - I feel that!! For the last couple of years I've used a quad-lined composition book. Because it's sewn, I can add lots of washi tape and other pieces of paper taped in and it just gets fatter without falling apart 😂 All my ongoing, year-long challenges are in the front. Then I skip to the second half of the notebook and create my monthly #BookSpinBingo lists as I go along, plus any short-term readathons or challenges. 3w

TheAromaofBooks @Gissy - It's all about finding a system that works for you!!! I loooooove tracking things 😂 So I use a spreadsheet plus my notebook!!! I also get these really inexpensive book logs from Amazon that I love because it means every book I read ends up with a reference number. I started using them several years ago and I'm almost done with my 14th volume!! https://www.amazon.com/dp/1695365623 3w

#IDLR #InDeathLongReadalong Ch.16-22/Review - wow the last few chapters of this book whirled by as it all came crashing together. I knew the two cases had to be linked somehow - did everyone click on to the evil Mrs.Branson? What a conniving psycho! Poor Zeke. I wonder if he‘ll recover from this. And will Peabody give McNabb a chance in the romance department? I‘m eager to read more.

StayCurious I enjoyed this instalment- it was heavy at times (very high body count and sad that we lost Malloy) but also showed how smart Eve is to have put it all together. She really showed her skills this time. We‘ll be reading Witness in Death next, but I think because of the busy holiday season, we‘ll take a break and resume in January. We really hope you‘ll continue with us in our In Death journey! See you soon! 1mo

TheAromaofBooks I honestly didn't suspect Clarissa, but it all made sense once Eve pointed it out. I am LOVING this series and will definitely be back for more next year!!! 1mo

ShananigansReads I didn‘t see her coming either. I love this series. Can‘t wait til January to dive back in. 1mo

BookmarkTavern Looks exciting! 1mo

#InDeathLongReadalong - wow so much happening in this book: Things are🔥up btw Peabody & McNab (everyone saw this coming); Eve has a nightmare about her mother for the first time (sad); a huge explosion results in mass casualties (very sad); and Peabody‘s brother gets into a bind. Okay a major bind - honestly he and Clarissa could be in serious trouble now. Im looking forward to the conclusion of this one. Roberts has certainly upped the stakes!

Loyalty in Death | J. D. Robb

#InDeathLongReadalong #IDLR Ch.6-10: things are getting more serious as a group calling themselves Cassandra blows up one of Roarke‘s buildings and targets another. They see Eve as their adversary and she has ties to the highest “capitalist” of them all. Eve is trying to stop another bombing disaster like one that happened earlier in the century. ⬇️

StayCurious She‘s distracted from the Branson murder. But we find out that the brother of the victim is abusing his wife. Who happens to be the object of affection for Peabody‘s brother Zeke. What a complicated situation! 2mo

Loyalty in Death | J. D. Robb

#InDeathLongReadalong #IDLR Ch.1-5: this one has an interesting start where Eve is called to a case where a man is dead and his lover/killer is awaiting the cops and ready to confess. At first we think this will be open and shut but it becomes more complex and there is the question of justice being served and what is the true motive. ⬇️

StayCurious Also, there is another case that Eve is reluctant to get involved in but finds herself being sucked in: one of her weasels reports that his friend was killed after making bombs for someone. This is probably linked to the creepy prologue. We also get to meet Peabody‘s adorable brother. It‘s great to see her in family mode. But is he linked to Eve‘s case? (edited) 2mo

StayCurious @Librarybelle @ShananigansReads @Gissy @AileenRR @Read4life @TheAromaofBooks @MrsV @CoverToCoverGirl @LitStephanie @LiseWorks 2mo

LiseWorks I love that we get to know Peabody more. I just hope her brother isn't involved in getting to Eve because that prologue was intense 2mo

TheAromaofBooks @LiseWorks - It's so fun to see another facet of Peabody. I really enjoy how much she loves her family, even though she's chosen to take a path very different from theirs. But if something happens to her brother I'm going to be super upset!! 2mo

StayCurious @TheAromaofBooks @LiseWorks I can see Zeke being used as a pawn in a grander scheme - he‘s sweetly naive 2mo

ShananigansReads So much has happened to Eve it‘s hard to believe that it‘s barely been a year (in book time). Protective big sis looks good on Peabody. 1mo
