Review: Postmortem by Patricia Cornwell

Postmortem by Patricia Cornwell
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Boy, times have changed since this book was written!

This is another reread for me, and another one that I was pretty bored with. The technology has changed so much, and at first it was laughable, and then it just got boring. I was hoping to get back into the series so I'd know what my next dozen books would be (I'm stuck in a rut with my reading right now, having a hard time getting into anything) and I'm just not feeling this one either, though when I first read it years ago, I enjoyed the series. According to goodreads, I reread this one at least once before, in 2009.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I first read this book many years ago - before I joined goodreads, I believe - and read the first few in the series. Back then I was really into mysteries, legal thrillers, crime dramas, etc. I read so many of them I got sick of the genre and haven't read a single similar book in probably close to 15 years.

Recently I've been kind of "stuck" - can't get into any books - so I've been rereading the Wagons West series and decided maybe what I needed was to try a different genre again, so I requested this one from the library.

I did enjoy it - but I'm still burnt out on the genre. I was bored throughout most of the book. Of course the book is dated, too, with outdated technology especially, and I remembered who the murderer was the mystery part of the book wasn't a mystery to me.

I do recommend the book to those who do enjoy the crime / legal dramas

An oldie but a goodie.

I used to read this series years ago & lately I've been thinking about picking up the series again, so I borrowed this as an e-book from the library. I knew it was romance & mystery in a future setting, and when I read the series years ago, I really liked the blend of genres.

Now, I was just so bored with the romance story line - I just can't get into romance in books anymore.

That being said, I still enjoyed the book - I love Eve, I love Eve meeting Roarke, and I love the whole universe that's created in these books, the little futuristic devices that seem so funny now, but when this world was first created, it was so cool to have little gadgets that fit in the palm of your hand.

After rereading the book, I'm not sure if I'll reread the rest & continue reading the newer books in the series.
