Naked in Death J D Robb 9780425220184 Books

I've read this series a couple of years back when I was still a student (had more time to read then) and I loved it! The problem was that I used to borrow the hardcopies from libraries, hence I had to read whatever was available in the library instead of going chronologically down the series. Bought a kindle recently, and the first book that came to mind was this! And I still love it reading it the second time as much as I did the first time :) I can't wait to go down the series one by one!

There are two things that intrigue me most when I got started on Book 1 of this fantastic series; firstly, to know more about this futuristic world where interplanetary travel is very much possible, and secondly, to follow the development of the lead couple who seem so different in characters, yet so perfect for one another.

Reading this series is like watching a TV serial for me. I love it that the books are still coming out year after year. I strongly encourage those who love crime-related cum romance novels to get started on these!

Naked in Death J D Robb 9780425220184 Books Reviews

I am reading everything's on my keyboard before I start using my Paperwhite. Came across a whole bunch of books by J D Robb and I have been binging on them this week.

J D Robb, as you probably know, also writes romance as Norah Roberts. Writing as J D Robb, however, her style is darker and grittier.

This is a series of mysteries set in the not too far distant future when the earth has colonized a lot of planets, societal norms have changed in some ways, yet law and order remains law and order and the police are there to protect and serve.

This series chronicles the cases of Eve Dallas as she investigates murders and believes it is her vocation to stand for the dead, to see that they get justice.

In my opinion, a person is going to love these books or hate them, I happen to love them.

Well written, strongly developed characters, detailed plots. Someone is doing research and I appreciate that. Of course, there are some love stories woven in because that is part of life, after all, it can't be all grim.
LOVE LOVE LOVE J. D. ROBB's IN DEATH SERIES. This is the 1st book in the series and introduces you to EVE and ROARKE. Started this series because a friend loaned me book 2 or 3 in the series and had to buy the 1st and 2nd to see how EVE and ROARKE met and hooked up. I've been hooked ever since. Each book is a stand a lone story about a murder investigation but you'll enjoy them so much more if read in order. That's because there is a back story in each book about the main characters's (Eve and Roarke's) relationship with each other as well as their circle of friends/co-workers which grows with each book. While the murder mystery is always a great story...I also love to see how all the characters' lives grow and develop.
So I am gonna start with the parts of this series that I liked and that made me keep reading even the times I wanted to smack the lead charecters or throw my reader in frustration or simply just went alright already we got it so please stop with these stupid repeating dreams.. THEY ARE BORING... or when another sex scene was there.. and wow I just made this series sound horrible... but it really isn’t.. it just have a lot of elements that are, in my opinion, really really stupid... but back to the good parts... I love the detective parts.. sure there are some plot overlaps in the books because okay how many different murders can you really imagine, but there are some that are truly spectactular. The Icove case being the most memorable.. but with that being said for crying out loud let Eve sleep at some point.. the amount of sleep jd wants us to think Eve survives by should make her brain not function nearly enough to be a good cop..

Now onto the things i hate in this series.. I will admit to liking romances.. or rather books that have some element of romance in them.. without it I rarely find a book interesting.. don’t know why.. but the “romance” in this book? I simply have no words... I first heard about these book because of a “best couples in books” list and roarke and eve was at the top.. after having read the series I cannot understand why... you put eve with roarke and you get the transformation from a steelspined intelligent cop to pathetic spineless doormat.. she lets Roarke do whatever he wants and even when she gets mad he just have to yell a bit about all he does for her and she caves... and this is most apparent when it comes to other women... here are some facts.. the series are 40 something books plus novellas but only covers about 3-4 years.. and in every single one of them Eve has to deal with a beautiful clever acomplished woman that has slept with her husband.. that is over 40 women in about 4 years she gets thrown into her face, many of them telling her how they where together how he was the best sex of their life how they would steal him from her if possible etc. that is about one woman a month she gets a graphic reminder of her husbands past. and ALWAYS roarke’s reaction is oh it was just sex no biggie.. and it is often remarked how these women are only a small fraction of the ones he’s had sex with.. he also constantly comments on beautiful women.. incl the ones he’s slept with.. like Eve says about one of his exes that she prob. paid for her body and he is all but how well spend those money where... and all of this Eve just accept.. in book 4 she comes home to see before mentioned bought body kiss her husband... and he does nothing, in fact laughs at her when she gets a little bit jealoux... and these sort of situations constantly happens.. he works with many of the women and a LOT of them wants him back... but Eve just has to deal... and then there is THE ex.. the one he was actually in love with.. the one he keeps meeting alone and not telling Eve about even though she told him she didn’t want him to.. you know basically cheats on her with even if he didn’t sleep with her... and again Eve does nothing... and in fact later on feels like she can’t tell Roarke how she didn’t like a woman because she reminded her of THE ex, because oh no what if it hurts HIS feelings... and in all of this we are ever only told about ONE, I repeat ONE of Eves former lovers.. and what happens? Well he’s in love with Eve and decides to kiss her (something one of Roarkes exes did to him in front of Eve without Roarke doing anything) and Eve pretty much punches him for doing it.. and Roarkes reaction? He goes balistic and ends up FIGHTING this other man that Eve so very clearly is not interested in... in other words Roarks past is okay but Eve’s is not? She should be okay with him having slept with half the women in the world but really how could she not be a pristine little virgin when he decided he wanted her... I can’t decide if this is general societal view on genderroles or just a really screwed up relationship.. probably both...

And while we are on relationships... Charles Monroe and Louise Dimatto... I refuse to believe if you love someone you are just going to be completely 100% okay with your significant other sleeping with other women, romancing them.. no matter how much you tell yourself it is only a job, it is not... as a man you can’t exactly fake being sexually aroused now can you.. you can’t go oh look at my super realistic strapon and no that is not my D hanging limp there it is a third ball... their relationship is not that of people who love each other.. it is one of two F buddies who think they love each other because they haven’t found one they actually do yet.. they’d know the difference...
It’s a little unsettling how close to today’s political climate this book finds itself when it’s set years and years in the future.
In the beginning, it threw me off a little to have a story about a cop set in a time when guns are considered collector’s items. But once I got used to the premise, JD Robb’s style of writing swept me up and I had to find out whodunnit.
So many times the tension in a book like this is fabricated in the romantic relationship instead of naturally developing from the crime. Not here. Neither of the people in the relationship are perfect, and they have baggage and lots of issues, but they communicate and respect each other. Their ability to have a healthy relationship despite lots of roadblocks allows the reader to stay focused on the crime and where the story is going.
I’m ready for the next in the series!
