Memory in Death is the 22nd book in In Death series by J.D.Robb. After all those books it was natural to see a slight change of rhythm. This book is a great example of that.This is been a great series so far but it is normal to start to loose the excitement. I have to say, in defence of the author of which I'm a great fan, until this book I've never felt any change in my enthusiasm for the books in this series.But this Memory in Death was different in every aspect. It started out okay, with certain interesting details and I was very excited with the reading. But then, I started to loose some interest. It is true when some people say - they're even more fan that I am - that this book is somewhat difficult to read. There's no fluidity in the writing and the reader starts to loose concentration until all he sees is the words passing by but he's not really absorbing them. That's how I felt reading this book. I understand that this book speaks about something difficult, a period in Eve's life that we weren't aware of until this book. It speaks about the period she spent with a foster mother except you can risk the mother out of the equation. So, you see what I'm trying to say? This is book is indeed sad and extremely difficult. But I could not find the thing, the sentiment that Robb usually puts into her books to make them exceptional. Maybe it's just me, I don't' know.. I certainly hope the next volume is better.
I, the booklover
bookaholic, that's my best description.
