Vendetta in Death by JD Robb
Vendetta in Death
3/5. Because Nora Roberts is like that, a new book came out as soon as I finished all the existing ones. Kind of a retread plot wise – this one is about a woman getting revenge on various awful men through violence. This series has never been, shall we say, entirely clear on its views of when revenge killing is okay. The series thinks it isn't cool with it, but actually is depending on who does it. Anyway, what I wanted to say is that this book is about how the main character is okay. How far she has come in her community and her marriage. How she can count on people, knows how, and knows who. That she has amazing women around her, and men worthy of her trust. It's nice, and a surprising amount of development for a series that really liked to roll around in the trauma at various points.
…Yes, still.
