Sacred Sins by Nora Roberts
I haven’t read a lot of books by Nora Roberts, despite her prolific output. I borrowed this one, as it appeared to be a stand alone in comparison to most of her trilogies, and I didn’t realize at first that it was published way back in the late 1980s! I suppose it was a testament to the story that it didn’t jump out at me immediately that there were no cell phones or Google searches. However, that doesn’t mean it was all good! The main […]
Honest Illusions by Nora Roberts
Well, I’m back! I read 45 books last year and reviewed not a single one. It’s a shame, too – I read some really great stuff last year. Oh well, no sense harping on the past. Rather, let’s move ahead! Honest Illusions is another Nora Roberts book. If you’ve read a lot of my reviews, you know I read her fairly frequently. This is a stand alone, recommended to me (and purchased for me) by a friend. This romance focuses on the family Nouvelle, a […]
Hideaway by Nora Roberts
Sometimes, when I think I’m busy, I think about Nora Roberts, and I realize that there is no way I can possibly be as busy as she is. This woman has written approximately eleventy billions books, and Hideaway is her latest. Normally, I like Nora’s stand-alone novels. Yes, they’re predictable in that Nora-esque way, but they’re like watching an episode of Law and Order. You know the characters, you know pretty much what’s going to happen, the details don’t exactly matter because the basic framework […]
Tribute by Nora Roberts
Bingo Square: Red Cilla McGowan is the granddaughter of Janet Hardy, a legendary actress who died from an overdose – suspected suicide – before Cilla was born. A former child star, Cilla is sick of Hollywood and all it has to offer. She manages to persuade her mother (who is still stuck in the Hollywood machine) to sell her Hardy’s old farmhouse so she can do it up, and maybe find herself a home in the process. While gutting the property, Cilla meets her neighbour, […]
Angels Fall by Nora Roberts
Scribd does this thing where after you’ve listened to a couple of book, they make all the other books you want to listen to “unavailable” until the day after your subscription renews. It’s annoying. Anyway, after listening to the Murderbot Diaries, all the scifi I planned to listen to was unavailble, but a couple of Nora Roberts’ books were available. Knowing that I would only be able to listen to one, I flipped a quarter and picked Angels Fall. I read this one years ago […]
Under Currents: A Novel by Nora Roberts
First review of the year! I started out so strong last year, and then petered out in February. (February is the longest month of the year, I swear.) So here’s hoping I can keep up this year! Somehow I missed this stand alone Roberts, although I just looked it up and it only came out last summer, so I’m not sure how my library has literally 50 e-copies available. (And here’s where I can go down the rabbit hole of publishing and libraries and e-books and […]
