In this episode, we recorded this during Thanksgiving week here in the United States, and every American knows that the Friday after Thanksgiving is always "Black Friday," which is the worst (or best) retail day of the year, depending on your perspective. Both AJ and Tara hate shopping, so we say "Black Friday" is generally the worst day of the year.

BUT...we're here to talk about all of our favorite "retail" moments in the "In Death" series. It's no surprise to us that most people say that their favorite moments are all the times that Eve buys something after telling Peabody not to shop. Most people's second favorite moments are all the moments with Tiko!

It's funny, though, and it shows that even though Eve hates shopping for herself, it's super easy for her to buy stuff for other people. Because, contrary to what we hear from reviewers, Eve has a HUGE heart, and grows as a character.

Many other retail moments are discussed on this episode, too. Enjoy!

Those of you familiar with this series will know that each of the books starts with two opening quotes that have something to do with the plot of the book. If you love the opening quotes, or if you have never really read them, so don't know about them at all, this should be an interesting episode for you. We discuss the quotes, how they fit in with each book, what author was quoted the most and least, which quotes have been re-used.

During our "Podcast Business" segment, we talk about some recent discussions on Facebook, most notably, the discussion about Eve and Roarke having a baby (or not).

We also discuss the possible demise of Twitter, and A.J. has an alternative: http://roarke.industries/

PLUS: A.J. and Jen will once again join Tara and her co-host Adam as guests on the "Basic Snitches" Podcast! This episode will air sometime in January or February and will be along the same lines as the last "Basic Snitches" episode that the "Podcast in Death" ladies appeared on. If you haven't listened to that one yet,  we highly recommend it. Here's the link: https://open.spotify.com/episode/1TnphAUub98VSP2Evnpjar?si=2eb6120681d14979

Several good reviews for this book! Like…this novella about a vampire felt lifeless? Also, the whole story is “Weird as Fuck.” More “Nora doesn’t know how to describe the future.” There are so many readers who gave this book two stars just because the book is too short!! We don’t [...]

Like...this novella about a vampire felt lifeless? Also, the whole story is "Weird as Fuck."

More "Nora doesn't know how to describe the future."

There are so many readers who gave this book two stars just because the book is too short!! We don't get it!

BUT...there is a lot of love for Baxter in these reviews, and a lot of people who really appreciate the snark in this book.

Also, we make an announcement about the "In Death" fan fiction archive from "InDeath.net."

This week we had planned a different episode topic, but life often interferes, and that happened with this episode. AJ and Jen had already known that Tara had theater and couldn’t be with us this week, but then, unfortunately, Jen got sick! So, what we decided to do is to [...]

This week we had planned a different episode topic, but life often interferes, and that happened with this episode. AJ and Jen had already known that Tara had theater and couldn't be with us this week, but then, unfortunately, Jen got sick!

So, what we decided to do is to play an older episode of our Patreon show, "The Briefing Room" where we talked about Eve's Enneagram type.

In this episode, AJ talks a bit about what the Enneagram personality types are. Then, we play the episode where AJ, Jen and Tara take an Enneagram test and answer as we believe Eve would answer. At the end, we get a pretty accurate reading of Eve's Enneagram type, and talk about what traits that the Enneagram model says Eve should have and if they match.

In the future, one of our episodes will be of us doing this same thing with Roarke, and we hope to do this for other characters as well.

We hope you enjoy this episode! Thanks!

In this episode, we talk about "Eternity in Death," which is a novella originally released as part of the "Dead of Night" Anthology.

In this story, Eve is dealing with the death of a young socialite, Tiara Kent (who bears a striking resemblance to Paris Hilton). Tiara looks to have been bitten by a Vampire (at least Peabody thinks so) and Eve is then dealing with a wannabe Vampire Dorian Vadim.

Lots of fun to be had with that theme...Baxter hangs up garlic, Roarke gives Eve a Cross to wear, and Baxter also supplies Eve with a stake to take with her to take down Vadim (which does come in handy, so good job, Baxter!!)

This is a good Halloween themed story, even though we didn't really like it as much as Haunted, but still a good, fun read.

Here we go, everyone, with our We Review the Reviews episode for "Desperation in Death" by J.D. Robb! Since this is such a new book, there's not the amount of reviews to choose from that we have with other titles. Still, we find some doozies.
