Promises in Death (February 2009)

Kindred in Death (November 2009)

“Missing in Death” novella in The Lost (December 2009)

I just started reading Naked In Death and it is good (so far). I agree you should start with the first book because I didn't .

I picked up Salvation In Death because it was the only one the local drug store had and I had a hard time getting through it. As a matter of fact, I didn't even get through it yet. However I ordered NID via amazon and it's going gangbusters.

I will eventually get back to Salvation… and maybe it will flow better now that I know more of that universe.

Hmm… I think I'll start reading "In Death" series.

Stana with her leather jacket DOES totally fit the description. The hair, I think, would be a different color…or a lighter shade? Man, though- I read these books out of order, too, but what I read left me clamoring for more, and I think I MUST own them all, although I don't know where they all are right now. :(

I can't say I'm overly engrossed in these books, I personally don't find Eve the slightest bit likable.

My Cat does however find them a very comfortable place to sleep :)

I just might have to start this series. 

 I'm just finishing the 7th book of James Patterson's Women's Murder Club.  Loved this series.

Now this guy I like! To save confussion I've started a new thread for James Patterson OK?

I just had the thought to check the J.D Robb website- and there's a new book on its way! "Fantasy In Death", on Feb 23rd. There's a nice sneak peak (bit longer than I feel like they should be, but eh), and it sounds good (not surprisingly!).
