Summary: A Disappointing Read
Review: I have only read one other Nora Roberts book, River's End. I decided to give this one a try. I wonder of all the things I could have rather been doing than reading this. Hmmm, cleaning the cat litter box comes to mind...Well, it wasn't really 'that' bad, but it wasn't very good. It seemed to follow the exact pattern of River's End. Even the way it ended, with the "surprise" right at the last second, was exactly the same. I wondered if all her books were as similar. The characters did not ever seem real to me. They were so obviously characters. The only one I remotely liked was Faith, and that was only toward the end. The romance between Tory and Cade seemed completely false and forced. I sped through the book to the end, only wanting to find out 'whodunnit'. Even that was a disappointment. Nora Roberts is extremely popular and seems to pump out her books at a non-stop pace. In my opinion, she should slow down a bit and concentrate on better characters and even plot. While I guess this would be a good quick read if you have nothing better to choose, I would ultimately choose something else.

Summary: It's Got It All
Review: This book has wit, intelligence, great sex and a villian that gives you chills. No one does all of the above as good as NR. I especially like the interaction between Tory and Hope's sister, and in turn between her and Tory's cousin. That's the south for you - a little incestuous. Lot's of good dialog - and a very scary ending that I came close to guessing at, but didn't quite get. As usual, NR is the best.

Summary: THIS SHOULD BE A MOVIE!
Review: This is the first Nora Roberts I've read. I love mysteries, and am usually enclined to read John Grisham, Mary Higgins Clark, Stephen King. My Mother-in-law suggested Nora Roberts so I opted for this title. Never before have I been so engrossed in a novel that I actually envisioned it as a movie, with Sandra Bullock as Tori, Matthew McConnaghey (sp?) as Cade, and Gwennyth Paltrow as Faith. FUN! I reccommend this book to anyone who loves a good "who-dunnit". Wonderfully exciting reading!

Summary: The best Nora Roberts book yet!
Review: I have grown up reading Nora Roberts' books, and I always eagerly anticipate the next release. "Carolina Moon" was absolutely worth the wait. Ms. Roberts did a fantastic job fleshing out the personality of the characters - once you turn the first page you are completely engrossed in the plot. If you read only one Nora Roberts book, this is it.

Summary: Fabulous!
Review: This was the best Nora Roberts book I have ever read, and I've read quite a few. This book kept you guessing and intrigued until the end. I could not put it down and read it in two days! I especially liked the secondary storyline involving Faith and Wade but Tory and Cade were great characters as well. An excellent read! A definite buy!

Summary: Very Entertaining!
Review: I truly enjoyed this book. It took me a few chapters to get really interested, but once I did, it was hard to put down. The story and characters were interesting and I couldn't wait to find out "who dunnit". NR kept me guessing until the very end! A great beach read.

Summary: Simply Smashing
Review: Nora Roberts is a literary genious. She just keeps proving it again and again. Carolina Moon grabs you and plunges you head first into these characters lives. Way to go Ms. Roberts.

Summary: Another hit on her hands.
Review: For some reason I alternate between loving her books or hating them. But this one was definately a winner. I loved the sister Faith, she was strong and sane and the real glue here. Roberts could have done a little more at the end(it seemed to run out of gas) but it was a worthwhile trip.

Summary: What twists and turns
Review: I truly did not know "who done it", until the very end...... Ms. Roberts again delievers a 5 star novel that you truly can not put down. I wish that she could write as fast as I read.

Summary: okay, not great
Review: This was a good beach read, but not the best NR book I have ever read. The plot has been recycled, reading like "Carnal Innocence". The editting bothered me: not only the timeline, but the repeated use here (and in other NR books) of the word "undo". It should read "undue influence" or "undue effort". The two words mean completely different things (unnecessary vs. come undone) and are NOT interchangable. Does the editor not own a dictionary?
