What Are You? FIVE?? We Review the Reviews of "Random in Death"

Hey, Everyone!

In this week’s episode, we look at the reviews of “Random in Death,” so, if you haven’t read that book yet, you may want to skip this episode.

For the rest of you, hold on to your hats and glasses, because this is going to be a wild ride!

As we have already said on our last episode, the common theme among all of these reviews is that people HATED all of the slang as in:

• “…the focus on teen slang is sooo boomer.”
• “It is distracting, a good mystery but silly with the slang.”
• “I also needed whomever wrote this to chill on the hip terminology…”dooser” is not plausible in any universe.”
• “JD Robb is to making up future slang as Stephen King is to making up past slang. If either has ever met a teenager I’d be shocked.”

But, that’s not all: Some of these reviewers HATE Peabody:

• “Peabodys character acts like an immature teen”
• “Peabody was annoying again in this one.”

Good reviews for this one include:

• “The detective team is top notch. There are obvious friendships and respect for partners.”
• “This book was compelling from beginning to end.”
• “… it was like listening to a story from an old friend. I loved it! Susan Ericksen does an excellent job with the narration…”

This was a fun episode to record, and we hope you all enjoy it!
