Witness in Death (In Death, #10), by J.D. Robb, My rating:4 out of 5 stars, Read from: 05/19/2024 - 05/22/2024.


I did enjoy this book, as I have all books in the In Death series, thus far, though it is not my favorite. I liked it more and more as it moved along. So now it will be on to book 11.


Book description: There was always an audience for murder. Opening night at New York's New Globe Theatre turns from stage scene to crime scene when the leading man is stabbed to death right on centre stage. Now Eve Dallas has a high profile celebrity homicide on her hands. Not only is she primary detective, she's also a witness - and when the press discovers that her husband, Roarke, owns the theatre, there's more media interest than either can handle. The only way out is to move fast. Question everyone - and everything. And in the meantime, try to tell the difference between the truth - and really good acting...

The party of gopers and gropers!

Senate Republicans block bill to protect Americans' access to contraception. These GOPERS are on a roll, don't ya know? In my opinion, they really want to throw women back into the 19th century, or even further back than that, if possible. The Senate vote on the Right To Contraception Act was 51-39, falling short of the 60 votes needed to defeat a filibuster. Republicans said the bill is unnecessary as the use of birth control is already protected under Supreme Court precedent. I believe this to be a lie. Many felt the right to abortion was also protected by SCOTUS precedent, and we all know what happened there, and what has happened in many red states, due to overzealous actions of Republican controlled state Legislatures seeking to control a woman's right to choose, and also allowing insurance companies to decline to pay for contraceptives. People who fail to see this trend in red states, I feel, are complicit in this effort, and should quickly turn their consciences back

We either have separation of church and state or we don't.

One of many principles that baffles me about Christians who are also politically conservative is their unabashed effort to try and make the United States into what they term a "Christian nation." This desire is baffling to me since the reason the colonies were founded was to allow for freedom of religion, supposedly, the freedom to worship as one chooses, along with the right to not worship if one chooses, and the freedom of no state religion. The United States founding fathers were so concerned about this, that they incorporated this principle into the United States Constitution as a 1st Amendment guarantee. The First Amendment to the United States Constitution states: "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances." This amendment was adopted

Introduction

Welcome to another blogging attempt. As those of you who follow me on social media know, i've attempted blogging before, and have given up on the effort, mostly because I'm inconsistent about taking the time and committing to writing posts on a regular basis. I also haven't taken the time to make blog posts pretty and esthetically appealing, so readers will not find a beautifully laid out blog here. I'm writing this in the simplest way possible, using the Notes app on my iPhone. What I plan to post are comments about books and what I'm reading. Since reading is what I love to do, it's what I spend the most time doing. I also plan to post about political and societal trends and comment on the good and the bad, in both. I am a follower of Jesus, and am liberal about my Christian views, as well as my political ones, so if you're offended by support for the LGBTQ community, gay rights, women's rights, civil rights, voting rights and the idea that the purpose
