  • Who's Rosie?? We Review the Reviews of "Wonderment in Death"
    2025/01/11

    On this episode, We review the reviews of "Wonderment in Death." As you all know, this book wasn't one of our favorites, so, we are in the unusual position of not having a lot to say about the bad reviews on this one. BUT... we do go on a little rant about an author who gives the book a bad review and AJ goes on an even smaller rant about cilantro (which really has nothing to do with the books or the reviews).

  • Too Many Bras: We Review "Wonderment in Death"
    2024/12/28

    This book is the last one of the novellas, and we hate to say that we're relieved. Tara stated that she liked this book as much as she liked "Chaos," and that is to say she didn't really like it much at all. AJ just finds this book a bit silly, not to mention the fact that twice "talking to the dead" is mentioned and Eve rolls her eyes when EVE LITERALLY TALKED TO THE DEAD IN "POSSESSION IN DEATH!!" That being said, there are some funny moments in the book, so it is still an okay book from that standpoint. We both love when Roarke says the "didn't come down in the last shower of rain," and the end where Eve and Peabody are both under the influence after taking down the bad guy. Also, for some reason, Eve is a bit judgmental over the fact that one of the victims had "over a dozen bras," which to us seems a normal amount (and we're sure that Eve has WAY more bras/support tanks in her closet).

  • It's Our 2024 Holiday Episode!
    2024/12/21

    In this 2024 Holiday Episode, we imagine a year where, Eve and Roarke are so busy with their jobs or with that they did not have time to plan their annual Christmas Party. This is unacceptable to Mavis, so Mavis decides to plan a surprise Christmas party for Eve and Roarke (which Roarke would love and Eve would hate). But Eve and Roarke realize they don't have gifts for anyone at the party, so they rush to their gift room to find gifts for everyone.

    So, given this scenario, we found 30 luxury gifts that they might find in the gift room, one gift for each person at the party. We will say a character name randomly, and then we will both decide what gift Eve and Roarke would give each of their friends. It's a really fun episode!

    We hope you enjoy the episode and Happy Holidays!

  • Stop Making Eve Funny! We Review the Reviews of "Devoted in Death"
    2024/12/14

    In this episode, we Review the Reviews of "Devoted in Death." We knew they were going to be bad (for the most part). But we're always surprised at how many people continue to read and review these books who clearly don't like the characters, the writing, and essentially the series itself. We've decided it's a kink...they get off on reading books they don't like and then writing reviews talking about how the author needs to stop writing the books you hate. Makes no sense. But anyway...


    Among those are the people who said:


    • ​"S&M and torture? Thanks but no thanks."
    • ​"I don't pay for sloppy work. At all."
    • ​"Hate romance novels disguised as thriller."
    • ​"..this series really needs to end."
    • ​"...it seems like it's always Christmas, about to be Christmas or just after Christmas."
    • ​"...extreme foul language used by Eve"

    Not to mention the review in all caps that said: "MORE OF THIS IRRITATING TREND OF TRYING TO MAKE EVE FUNNY - I JUST KNOW IT WAS VERY NOTICEABLE TO ME. AND, I DON'T LIKE IT..."


    Among the good reviews, we have:


    • ​"I listened on Audio and as usual Susan Ericksen does a fab job!"
    • ​"Pulpy fun, routine formula but well written..."
    • ​"...the sizzling speed and urgency of the investigation keep the reader turning pages quickly."


    Plus, we talk about a LOL moment that we missed on the last episode, Roarke metaphorically marks his territory with Eve, and we're really upset to realize that we were hoping to read "Brotherhood in Death" next, but it's actually the last novella of the series: "Wonderment in Death." BOO!

  • Nora's a Genius, but also: Susan - Our Favorite LOL Moments
    2024/12/07

    In this episode, we discuss some of our favorite moments from the books that actually made us laugh out loud. Nora Roberts is just a genius with dialogue, we can't say enough good things about her writing. But also, it's Susan Ericksen's delivery of the lines in the audiobooks that makes every one of these moments a chef's kiss.
