Not a very shiny star…

August 14, 2015 by Lynn 2 Comments

Nora can usually be counted on for a halfway decent trilogy. Sure, it’s predictable. Sure, the timeline of true love is sped up. Sure, there’s always some Horrible Danger. Sometimes it’s an otherworldly type of danger, just to mix things up, like a werewolf or a witch or something. Sure, the men are always perfect physical specimens, tall and lanky, funny, totally at ease with women in distress, and not at all freaked out at the thought of marrying what amounts to a total stranger.

Good old Nora…

August 14, 2015 by Lynn Leave a Comment

Sometimes, I need something quick that I can read on my tablet, something easy that I can pick up and put down (or fall asleep to), something that doesn’t make me think. But I have anxiety over buying a book I can’t flip through, so most of the time I resort to what’s on my library’s website. Which, honestly, isn’t a whole lot. But I know that Nora Roberts is always good for a good time, so I found myself downloading Black Hills the other […]

The book opens with Shelby, a young widow with a three year old daughter, coming off the news of her husband’s tragic death in a sailing accident. Richard was an investor of […]

Two New(ish) Nora Roberts

September 2, 2014 by NTE 4 Comments

I will admit to being a pretty big fan of the author Nora Roberts. And by “pretty big fan,” you can take that to mean that I may have joined her bulletin boards back in the day, and I may be able to quote scenes from some of my favorite books, and there may be an awful lot of ‘R’ related shelves in my library. At one point – back when said board, ADWOFF, was in full swing, I probably didn’t go a day or […]

    on Seven people go for a tour in a mysterious library housing a very rare book, and you can probably guess the rest.
    “Skin covered finger bones”—that’s hilarious. This was a very satisfying review.

    on These (Slow) Burning Stars
    No heist, but it still feels a little heist-y due to some heist-adjacent action.

    I do like sci-fi, especially when you throw in queer and revenge. The only thing that could make it more...
