Book Reviews of Salvation in Death
Book Review: Not the best in the series but worth the reading time
Summary: 4 Stars
Definately not my favorite In Death book but it was okay. The best parts were the cake and the purse. The worst part was the second murder - hello, like nobody saw that coming. Definately need more interaction with other characters. Nobody lives life in a bubble, not even Eve, and there just wasn't the character developement that there has been in past books.
Looking forward to the next book. I hope they also release that one in large print at the same time as the regular hard cover.
Book Review: What Happened?
Summary: 2 Stars
Where were they? Louise, Mavis, Peabody, McNab, Somerset. I have read every "In Death" book, but this one was so disappointing. I kept waiting for the interactions of all of the above characters and it never came! I simply could not get through this book - Eve and Roarke are starting to bore me and the plot was too confusing, to "busy". It' almost like J. D. Robb is bored with writing these books. I hope not - so let's get back to all of the relationships we have all become attached to as well as the amazing criminal plots.Book Review: book on disc

i was very pleased to receive the product so promptly and I loved the bookBook Review: J.D. Robb's Salvation in Death
Summary: 5 Stars
This novel was excellent reading. It kept me interested the entire time I was reading it and it was hard to stop reading this novel once I started it. As usual, J.D. Robb has captured my attention as she has in all of her novels that I have read. I would recommend this novel to everyone who is interested in mystery novels. I am anticipating reading her next novel which I have pre-ordered, but it is not available until February, 2009. I just enjoy reading J.D. Robb's novels and she does not live far from where I reside now in Maryland. Hopefully, I'll get the chance to meet her one day. I started reading her novels while residing in Stuttgart, Germany the past five years. My daughter introduced me to these novels and then I began to order them from Amazon.com myself.
A sincere reader and fan. Brenda B. Hughes.
Book Review: Disappointing and illogical
Summary: 2 Stars
This book got off to a great start, but what a disappointment afterwards. I agree with the other reviewers who said this seemed phone in. I also have 2 other issues. The murdered priest started out as a "good" guy who was praised for his work with the children of the parish. ****Spoiler alert**** Then we find out that he was a former gang member who had orchestrated the bombing and killing of several people. It is interesting and telling that Robb has the priest reportedly arguing with another priest about redemption thru good works. The priest could have been a much more interesting character, but suddenly the priest becomes a con artist and a murderer with no redeeming qualities. It's almost like he's a different person in the second half of the book. My other issue is that Eve makes such a big deal over collaring the priest's murder because murder is never justified. However, she certainly doesn't think that Roarke murdered Marlena's murderers. Robb has Eve and Roarke talk about this interminably in the book, but she never adequately justifies why Roarke's actions in the taking the law in his own hands are different than the actions of the one who did so for the priest. I really enjoy all of Robb's characters and most of her storytelling. But she is definitely not up to par with this book.
