Before we dive into the books, I wanted to say that I hesitated to send out my normal posts this week. My heart is so heavy. I want you to know that my prayers are with you. Our world is in chaos and everything seems to hurt right now. But, I also know that you may need just a little bit of distraction to ease the pain, so I decided to send them out as planned. Please stay well and be kind. I miss Mr. Rogers more than ever these days.
My Favorite Books: In Death Series by J. D. Robb

In 1995, the year that Denton and I married, a new author came out with a book that I devoured in a day. Naked in Death was an instant hit with me. The fiftieth book (Golden in Death) came out in February of this year and I finally got my hands on a copy of it today! So if you need me, I’ll be hiding in my bedroom for the next two days.
I’ve read this series multiple times over the years and it never gets old for me. It’s like sitting down with an old friend, which is exactly what I’ve needed lately. Books are matchless when you just need to get away from reality for a little while.
Just in case you’ve lived under a rock like I do sometimes and you’ve never heard of this series (it’s possible!), here is a short summary:
The …in Death series of novels and short stories are written by Nora Roberts under her pseudonym J. D. Robb. Set in a mid-21st-century New York City, they feature NYPSD (“New York City Police and Security Department”) lieutenant Eve Dallas and her husband Roarke. The stories also regularly feature other characters, including Captain Ryan Feeney, Detective Delia Peabody, Detective Ian McNab and Dr. Charlotte Mira. (via)
