Rating: Summary: Caution Before You Buy Review: I have to confess that I did not finish reading this book. I tried and I tried, because as always with Nora Roberts it's well-written, and the characters seem real. However, the wiccan/witchcraft aspect is against my beliefs and I was finally convicted to discontinue reading. I am writing this review to inform others who may share my beliefs so that they can make an informed decision regarding it. I'm sorry, Nora. This won't stop me from buying other books by you.
Rating: Summary: So so Review: Definitely not one of her better books. I found it difficult to finish since characters weren't very interesting and plot was very predictable. The description of Three Sisters town was the best part of the book.
Rating: Summary: One of her best yet! Review: I loved the characters, and the story was appealing. But I don't like serial reading. It takes too long for the next book. Hurry up, Nora. I also enjoyed a new book by Millicent Hart, The Color of Revenge. It was great!
Rating: Summary: Dance Upon the Air Review: I loved this book. It kept me spellbound from the beginning. While she takes Nell from an abusive husband, gives her the courage to find a new life,she never lets us forget that there are people out there who do take abuse from their spouses. That don't end with happy endings. She also shows us that you have to have the strength to fight the battles that you need to fight. Yet again she shows us that you can draw strength from those around you. With a circle of friends you can do anything.
Rating: Summary: AWESOME! Review: Now tell me, who can resist a book that incorporates a victimized woman on the run, an Island off the coast of Maine, a bookstore/cafe, cottage by the sea, good looking Sheriff love interest, and witches? Well this one does and it's a great story! Could not put it down! I can't wait for the next one!
Rating: Summary: Another Series Review: I had to read this book twice before I decided I loved it :) It took me a while to get use to Nell's life, but I fell in love with Mia's character. So I cannot wait to Mia's Story, which will probably be the last book !! I do recommend reading this book, and if you aren't sure about it try it again, it does grow on you.
Rating: Summary: dance upon air Review: THIS IS THE STORY OF A YOUNG WOMAN WHO ESCAPE AN ABUSIVE MARRIAGE AND FOUND REFUGE IN A LITTLE ISLAND NEAR THE MASSACHUSSETTS COAST AND THERE SHE WILL DISCOVER FRIENDSHIP,MAGIC AND ABOVE ALL LOVE.ONCE AGAIN NORA ROBERTS WAS ABLE TO CREATE A STORY LIKE NO ONE ELSE IJUST CAN WAIT TO READ THE SECOND BOOK IN THE THREE SISTERS ISLAND TRILOGY.
Rating: Summary: The other two books in this series can't come soon enough! Review: I thoroughly enjoyed reading this, and am eagerly awaiting the next installment in this trilogy. I thought the characters were very well developed, and I particularly enjoyed the special relationship between Mia and Ripley.I must disagree with some of the comments that this was either (1) too much like Sleeping With the Enemy or (2) not as good as The Donovan Legacy. First, the only similaries between this and Sleeping With the Enemy are, both women escaped their abusive marriages by faking death, and both women fell in love with someone else. With all the other background stories in this book, it is just wrong to say it's too much like the movie. Second, I believe Dance Upon the Air is better than the Donovan Legacy. As a fan of Wiccan tales, the magic performed by Mia and Nell was much more believable than Morgana causing thunder to roll with a casual flick of her mind. That sounds more like fantasy to me. Don't get me wrong, The Donovan Legacy is a good book, but I still think this one is better. Whether or not you believe in witches, Dance Upon the Air makes the possibility of their existence seem much more imaginable.
Rating: Summary: Another magical story by NR Review: There are very few NR's books that I don't like, but of all her different stories, this is the type I like best - romance with a bit of magic. Some of the other reviewers have given an excellent synopsis of the storyline so I won't go into elaborate detail. Suffice it to say that the premises of 3 modern day woman as reincarnations of the 3 witches that created Three Sisters Island is an intriguing one. Add to that mix romance, suspense & an idyllic setting and you've got a recipie for a truly enjoyable story and that's what this book is - truly enjoyable. Of course, it is the first of a trilogy & I'm looking very forward to Mia's story.
Rating: Summary: Great book. Review: This book was bout the best book with elements of wicca (a natural Relisgion, Magic) in it that was written by a non wiccan (at least I think that she is. Don't know exactly). I'm wiccan, and it was great to know that people who dont' know a thing about the religion can read it and know a bit more.
