Review: another great story by Nora Roberts.

Summary: Feel cheated again
Review: I have been reading Nora Roberts for several years; loved most every word. But I am so disappointed when I find myself paying top price for a book which was written years ago. In most cases, the author has vastly improved her writing and this is true of many of my favorites who are also choosing to pull some oldies out of the closet and sell them again. I dislike having to look for published date in a book when I buy one. Oldies belong in a discount shelf where you can choose to read them again for half price. Even so, I read every single word and it finished up beautifully.

Summary: Sweet Story but Not Captivating
Review: I have to admit I was not completely captivated by this story. The ending (last 30 pages or so) was great - surprise and utter romance. Everything leading up to the ending was pretty repetitive and uneventful, except for the few witch demonstrations. But due to the ending of the book, I recommend it to any Nora Roberts fan.

Summary: Just Wasn't Interesting
Review: I ordinarily love this author, but I simply couldn't get into this story. It was rather lifeless and the characters dull.

Summary: A disappointed Nora Roberts read
Review: Nora Roberts is one of my favorite authors. However, Captivated fell flat for me. The problem - No Plot.
The book was first published in 1992. If you are a fan of Ms. Roberts, you can see how much she's grown as a writer in the last 12 years, if you've read of her more recent works.
I like all the characters, I just wish they were doing something other than the cliche'.After I bought this book, a co-worker noticed that I had it, because she's a big NR fan, too. She said she couldn't get into it, and neither could I. I finished it (she didn't), but not without forcing myself to pick it up and do so. Skip this series, it's not worth it.

Summary: Another good read from Nora Roberts!
Review: Since I collected all of Nora Roberts' books a few summers ago, I am slowly reading her titles to make them last. But considering she writes three books a year, I will most likely always have a Nora book to look forward to. And once again as she has done in the past this author has entranced me with the first book in the Donovan series, Captivated. When Nash, a Hollywood writer, needs help with facts for his next thriller movie, he seeks out the beautiful Morgana, known in the community to be a bona fide witch. But what he doesn't reckon with are her powers which he doesn't at first believe are anything more than pranks. And he certainly doesn't believe that her two cousins, Sebastian and Anastasia are anymore witches than their parents are either. Like many of Nora's other series book, this one is light and entertaining and has me looking forward to reading the next title, Entranced. Note - Although it says that this title is out of print, in 1999, the first three Donovan titles were published in one book called The Donovan Legacy. And at the same time the fourth book Enchanted about cousin Liam Donovan was also published. So happy Wiccan reading and afterwards tell me you don't believe there is any truth in this paranormal tale.

Summary: A book to devour
Review: This book is a must for every Noraholic out there. The title is spot-on-I was captivated from start to finish. The characters sizzle with unbridled passion, the plot is superb and Nora Roberts wit and enthusiasm for writing is unsurpassed. So do yourselves a BIG favour and read this book.

Summary: Charming, unusual. Positive Witchcraft and familiars.
Review: This book was a welcome and unexpected relief from the hum-drum of most romances. The characters were vivid, and of course, much larger than life. The use of the Wiccan religion as a background was quite detailed and fairly true to life. Although, of course, most modern day Witches do not levitate when they kiss their prospective lovers. The trials and tribulations of our main character, Morgana, as she resists the lure of the obvious husband-to-be, Nash, are somewhat predictable in the independent female type line. However, the addition of her familiar, an Occult shop and the characters that accompany such a lifestyle add a charm and flair rarely seen in such material. The wrap-up include priceless and humourous views of what appears to be a haunted castle deep in Ireland. I can only say - Read It! And then, look for the others. Even now, I am searching for the other two titles in the Donovan Series.
