Perfection Personified: We Review the Reviews of: "Glory in Death" (opens the original)
Read excerpt
It’s time once again to Review the Reviews , and this time Glory in Death is on trial. And wow. People have feelings about early-series Roarke. We start at the bottom of the Goodreads barrel with reviewers calling Roarke toxic, controlling, boundary-stomping, and desperately in need of therapy. And… okay. We’ve criticized plenty of Early Roarke Behavior ourselves. But AJ and Tara dig into something these reviews often miss: both Eve and Roarke are traumatized people who learned completely opposi
Glory in Death: The Tara Edition (opens the original)
Read excerpt
We’re heading back to Glory in Death , and this time Tara is along for the ride! There is A LOT happening in the second In Death book: we meet Peabody! We meet Crack! We meet Chief Tibble! We get more Nadine! Mavis meets Summerset! Eve tells Roarke she loves him! Roarke proposes! And somewhere in there, Eve is also supposed to solve a series of murders. We start by trying to figure out the actual theme of this book. Is it strong, opinionated women pissing men off ? Is it parents doing questionab
Urban Wars Code Name Generator (opens the original)
Read excerpt
What would YOUR Urban Wars code name be? After Bonded in Death revealed the Urban Wars code names Fox, Hound, and Lightning , we knew there was only one responsible thing to do: Give everybody else one.

Tara knew what the general topic of the episode was. She did not know what AJ had planned. And thus began an hour-plus journey
The Big H: We Review the Reviews of "Naked in Death" (opens the original)
Read excerpt
This week AJ and Tara dive headfirst into the wild, weird, and occasionally unhinged world of Goodreads reviews for the very first In Death novel. From "this book is liberal propaganda" to "Roarke is my new literary boyfriend," nothing—and no reviewer—is safe. Tara bravely soldiers through the episode despite feeling under the weather, while AJ becomes increasingly fascinated (and occasionally horrified) by people who apparently hate romance...while reading romance. ⭐ The one-star reviews that m
Justice for Sharon!! We Re-Review "Naked in Death" (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Thirty years after Naked in Death first hit shelves (and after 300+ podcast episodes), Podcast in Deaeth returns to the book that started it all. Is it everything we remembered? Does Roarke still sweep us off our feet? Did we discover new layers after reading the entire series? But perhaps most importantly, we now believe there needs to be: Justice for Sharon de Blass!! 📖 Going back to Naked in Death with 60+ books worth of perspective ❤️ First impressions of baby Eve, baby Roarke, and why they'
