I shall be moving on from one Dexter to another. Finished off Dearly Devoted Dexter and Dexter in the Dark so next up will be Colin Dexter's Last Bus to Woodstock, the first in the Inspector Morse series.

Having read Darkly Dreaming Dexter I decided to stay in Miami with the next in the series, Dearly Devoted Dexter. I thought that I might as well finish off the omnibus edition before moving on to pastures new.

I've finished Dearly Devoted Dexter. This now puts Made into a Movie/TV show and Young Adult both at 7 read. I think rather than race those to conclusion, I'll be looking for books in other categories to read for a bit - they could use the reads. I've got some true crime that may be looking ...

Forgot - I also finished Dearly Devoted Dexter, the second in the series by Jeff Lindsay. Lots of fun and very creepy.

I just finished Dearly Devoted Dexter which was lots of fun, next up for me is Something More.

thanks, as will Dearly Devoted Dexter for you (I'll finish it before I turn in tonight) - lots of fun, though I had to visit Wikipedia to remind myself of the differences between the end of the first book and the end of the first season of the TV series. next up for me: Something More

... I lost the plot for several pages more than once - but that may have been my failing and not the author's. next up: Dearly Devoted Dexter

... in the Dark by Jeff Lindsay and am thoroughly enjoying it. I read the first two Dexters, Darkly Dreaming Dexter and Dearly Devoted Dexter, and just adored them. Because I've been studying a lot about serial killers the past year for my own writing, I find the Dexter books a bit like ...

I read Darkly Dreaming Dexter and Dearly devoted Dexter by Jeff Lindsay and am currently reading The Chameleon's Shadow by Minette Walters. Am also working my way through The Wheel of Time series by Robert Jordan and am part way through The Fires of Heaven.

In order: Darkly Dreaming Dexter Dearly Devoted Dexter Dexter in the Dark

... opening as you did, Child of Light, but have cried much more readily for other movies that show such things. The TV show Dexter got me towards the end of the first season, when they started going into what made Dexter into a monster.

... I liked the pictures ~ many of them are of things and places I saw when I visited Rome a few years ago. (The DVD is "Dexter, the first season," which I've been wanting to buy but haven't because of the price but then I got a coupon for 40% off and...I have no willpower sometimes.)

killeymoon - The Virgin Suicides is so good! I just devoured Dearly Devoted Dexter in one day. I am loving the series and can't wait for the third book to come out this summer or fall. I haven't seen the show because I don't have Showtime, but I'm eager to see that as well. I liked Michael C ...

I just finished Dearly Devoted Dexter by Jeff Lindsay, the sequel to Darkly Dreaming Dexter. It was good, not as chilling as the first, but still as morbid. Right now I'm reading Elizabeth Gilbert's Eat, Pray, Love, which is really good. It's witty and although some parts are sad, ...

#16 - Owlie, I too enjoyed Darkly Dreaming Dexter, and also his second Dearly Devoted Dexter. Who could imagine that a serial killer hero could be so compelling?

Started and finished Dearly Devoted Dexter, which wasn't as good as the first book, and started Strange Trades, The Death and Life of Superman, A Meeting at Corvallis and Brimstone. Curse you, LibraryThing!

Re Message 59: Hi, LisaLynne ~ Darkly Dreaming Dexter is one of my all-time favorite mysteries. I also relished Dearly Devoted Dexter, the second book in what I hope and pray will be an ongoing series. For some macabre reason that I don't want to look at too closely, I'm simply enchanted ...

... goes. I'm still not sure why, but I absolutely loved the Dexter serial killer books: Darkly Dreaming Dexter and Dearly Devoted Dexter and am looking forward to the third (I HOPE he's writing another one). A serial killer protagonist who's one of the "good guys." What a concept! :)

... myster/thriller/horror/whatever is the Dexter series by Jeffrey Lindsay (Darkly Dreaming Dexter is the first one, and Dearly Devoted Dexter the second). They are about a serial killer who happens to be the hero on the side of the good guys. Really fun in a macabre kind of way. As far ...
