Historia
On a hot August night, Lt. Eve Dallas and her husband, Roarke, speed through the streets of Manhattan to the Down and Dirty club, where a joyful, boisterous pre-wedding girls’ night out has turned into a murder scene. One of the brides lies in a pool of blood, garroted in a private room where she was preparing a surprise for her fiancée—two scrimped and saved-for tickets to Hawaii. Despite the dozens of people present, useful witnesses are hard to come by. It all brings back some bad memories for Eve.

not up to par
Revisado: 12-22-24
I hope that Ms. Robb hires a new ghostwriter. The last 3 books (#'s 57, 58, 59) are slow going. Most of her delightful quirky characters are barely mentioned, and the dialogue drones on and on. I have to admit that I dozed off at one point. I have read all of the "in death" books, and the humor, excitement, fun are all missing. The futuristic descriptions are lacking and the imagination is gone. The long psychological passages are like reading a psych 101 textbook. Please, Dallas deserves a better writer! Please, get someone who can put the quirky, the imagination, and the fun back into your books!

condescending towards women
Revisado: 08-27-24
Interesting story but I guessed the culprit long before the end, However the heroine, who is smart and capable, is constantly being wrapped in cotton. She doesn't need the men to solve the mystery, she doesn't need the men at all. Is that how Asian women are treated?

Historia
Alexander Denford, Baron Sedgwick, is a gentleman to be envied. He lives a rakish life of well-celebrated ease and contentment and has one person to thank for his perfectly ordered existence - his dearest wife, Emmaline. She never complains about his mistresses or his penchant for late nights out. His friends are envious, but they don't know the truth - Emmaline doesn't exist. But when he starts receiving bills from London for clothes, shoes, hats, and a staggering amount of other female accouterments, he realizes something is decidedly amiss.

Revisado: 07-13-24
I don't know what to say. It seems that every time Ms Boyle got a new idea while writing her book, she just threw it in to the plot willy nilly. Its all over the place, Very disorganized. Ridiculous. Too much.

boring
Revisado: 01-30-24
I"ve only heard a couple of chapters because I fell asleep, Your AI reader is just a fraction too slow, the words are slightly drawn out, too careful, the pauses a bit too long, and that disturbs the pace. I might like the story, but... I'd like to start again with an actual narrator who gets the timing right. Your AI reader is taking jobs away from good people who have a highly competitive career. It cannot compete with trained reflexes, voices that portray emotion, and good timing that takes years to build up. It gets a "thumbs down" from me.

Historia
If there's something Ravenna Chastain knows, it's when to end things. And after she almost winds up the victim of a cult that believes she's a witch, it's easy to walk away from her dead-end career, ready for a new start. But where to find a job that would allow her to use her very specialized skill set? The answer is clear: she becomes a matchmaker. But even a successful matchmaker can't find someone for everyone, and Ravenna considers Ethan Sweetwater her first professional failure. After nine failed dates, Ravenna knows it's time to cut Ethan loose.

Great
Revisado: 01-04-24
I love all of the Harmony novels. The imagination to come up with a whole new world and its customs, and inventions is wonderful. I see a lot of complaints about the narrator when reading the reviews. Barbara Rosenblat is a really good reader. I have heard many books read by her. Twenty years ago she had a lovely alto voice. Her voice now is a "whiskey voice". That can be caused by an accident to the vocal cords, or she caused it by smoking and drinking a lot of hard liquor. It makes it hard to tell whether the voice is male or female, and definitely sounds older. Yes, her voice doesn't sound like the heroine, but she is telling the story, not being the character.
I have (i hope) all of the Harmony novels and recommend them as light. entertaining and a pleasant way to pass the time.

Be careful what you wish for…Life takes an unexpected turn when Frank discovers his grandpa's secret and travels back in time.

An adolescent boys wet dream
Revisado: 10-07-23
The book is fairly well written. They say that adolescent boys think about sex every 30 seconds and this author seems to follow that guideline. Enough already!!! Sex, fighting, sex, fighting. Where's the plot? Get back at the other guy? There's a story somewhere. The sex actually got boring. Unless there is a prurient interest, don't bother.

Angst

Too much teenage angst. If you removed 60% of the Angst and added another storyline you would have a decent read.

Historia
The last time Thread attacked Pern, the world was unprepared for the fight - until the Oldtimers appeared. These courageous dragonriders arrived from the past, traveling 400 years to help their descendants survive. But the collision of past and present took its toll. While most of the displaced rescuers adapted to their new reality, others could not abide the jarring change and found themselves in soul-crushing exile, where unhappiness and resentment seethed.

I like it.
Revisado: 02-24-23
This story fills in a gap and explains what has happened with Piemur, Menolly, Seabel. I can tell that the author is not Anne McCaffrey. The flow is not quite as smooth, a little choppy at times, but still enjoyable. It is interesting to hear a different narrator. The names are pronounced differently than in the older books. I think that the narrator (who is not named on the cover page) should have listened to other books in the series so that names, such as Ramoth, were pronounced the same. That would help tie everything together. I enjoyed this book and hope that more are to follow.
