Rating:  Summary: A GOOD BOOK Review: I liked the book and found it easy to read, but I think the author could have made the same points without the use of such colorful language. I thought, too, the love realationship should have been accentuated a bit more, but all on all it was good reading. If you liked this book, or want to read one that goes straight to your heart, read Stolen Moments by Barbara Jeanne Fisher. . .It is a beautiful story of unrequited love. . .for certain the love story of the nineties. I intended to give the book a quick read, but I got so caught up in the story that I couldn't put the book down. From the very beginning, I was fully caught up in the heart-wrenching account of Julie Hunter's battle with lupus and her growing love for Don Lipton. This love, in the face of Julie's impending death, makes for a story that covers the range of human emotions. The touches of humor are great, too, they add some nice contrast and lighten things a bit when emotions are running high. I've never read a book more deserving of being published. It has rare depth. Julie's story will remind your readers that life and love are precious and not to be taken for granted. It has had an impact on me, and for that I'm grateful. Stolen Moments is written with so much sensitivity that it made me want to cry. It is a spellbinder. What terrific writing. Barbara does have an exceptional gift! This book was edited by Lupus specialist Dr. Matt Morrow too, and has the latest information on that disease. ..A perfect gift for someone who started college late in life, fell in love too late in life, is living with any illness, or trying to understand a loved one who is. . .A Christmas gift to be cherished forever.
Rating:  Summary: J.D. ROBB IS THE BEST! EVE IS STILL MY HERO! Review: THE FUTURISTIC STORYLINE OF MYSTERY AND SUSPENSE CONTINUES AS A FANTASTIC BACKDROP TO EVE'S EVOLVEMENT. JD ROBB IS STRIPPING AWAY THE LAYERS OF WHAT MAKES EVE EVE! AT A PACE DESIGNED TO TANTALIZE AND TICKLE YOUR ANXIETIES. REST ASSURED SHE IS VERY SUCCESSFUL, SO MUCH SO THAT I CAN'T WAIT FOR THE NEXT INSTALLMENT! J.D.... WHAT HAPPENED TO THE TEASER? I PANICKED WHEN I TURNED THE LAST PAGE AND IT WAS THE LAST PAGE!
Rating:  Summary: Predictable, but good Review: I like this series, although it's totally predictable. You know Eve will work at home, you know Roarke will do mysterious things on his computers and get her the answers she needs, you know there will be a near-death episode at the end, etc. Nonetheless the characters are endearing in their own way, the plots interesting. This book was more of the same, following exactly the same formula, but somehow that was OK.
Rating:  Summary: Definitely worth the wait Review: This book was really excellent, the only problem was that there wasn't enough of Eve and Rourke. I love to read about them as a couple, as much as I love reading all the police procedure parts etc. The secondary characters are great, and I enjoyed the way McNabb put a stop to all of Peabody's griping at last. The way JD Robb described the bombings and aftermath was really realistic. I love this series, but it's a real bummer that we now have to wait again. I feel like going into mourning. Can't get enough of Eve and Rourke,looking forward to Rourke finally getting a taste of his own medicine when he laughs at Eve getting jealous about his ex lovers, be worth a price of a ticket when he meets one of hers, didn't really cover that in 'Conspiracy' keep up the good work Nora. Maybe you can think about bringing these out every three months.
Rating:  Summary: J.D. Robb at her best, as usual Review: I loved this new book by Robb. I read it in about two days now I can't wait for the next one to come out. Robb portrays Dallas as a hard nose but also shows her gentle side, one she shows only to Roarke. I love the interaction between those two. Makes sparks shoot off of each page.
Rating:  Summary: Excellent, great edition to the "in Death" series. Review: I really enjoyed this book. I hope, however, that in the next installment Ms. Roberts concentrates a bit more on character relationships. Also I don't know if I am on target or not but it seems to me that Eve will be pregnant in the next book or the one after that. I am looking forward to this, I would love to see how Eve and Roarke cope with becoming parents.
Rating:  Summary: GOOD READ, THE OTHERS WERE BETTER! Review: I HAVE LIKED ALL IN THE SERIES OF EVE DALLAS BUT THIS ONE LACKED SOMETHING. MAYBE THE PLOT TOO PREDICTABLE/RELATIONSHIP TOO STALE/NOT ENOUGH ABOUT THE CHARACTERS, ETC. WHATEVER STILL A GOOD BOOK BUT I HOPE THE NEXT ONE IS MORE ABOUT EVE AND ROARKE...
Rating:  Summary: They just keep getting better Review: Another great book by Nora Roberts. I have enjoyed every In Death book written. I am happy to hear that this is not the end of the series. May the next installment come out soon. Keep up the good work Nora
Rating:  Summary: Great book, great series Review: I'm hooked. This is very gripping fiction. I'm more of a fan of novels like The Testament, The Triumph and Glory, and SF in the tradition of Asimov and Bear, but good fiction is good fiction, and Loyalty in Death tops the list of books I've read this fall. You'll love it.
Rating:  Summary: Very difficult to read Review: I could not get into the storyline because of the colorful language that has been gradually increasing in each book. I am realistic in knowing that some must be used because of the characters profession as a police officer and the circumstances in which she finds herself; however, in Loyalty in Death, I feel that the colorful language was used excessively. I really enjoy this series but I was unable to read this book and feel comfortable or good about it. I hope that she will tone down the language and focus more attention to the characters' developments.
