Re: J.D. Robb vs Nora Roberts

Post by ccarmink25 »

I particularly enjoy her romance themed works under the Nora Roberts name. The first book I read of hers was Charmed (The Donovan Legacy) and I was... wait for it... Charmed :wink: . Her characters filled me with awe and I kept wanting more. Luckily, I later discovered it was a series and I was able to immerse myself into the world she created. They may be light-hearted titles, but her way with words makes the stories come to life for me. Its always nice to reach the end and see how her characters triumphed and overcame their obstacles. I will, personally, always be rooting for her characters and pray I have all of her books in my collection at some point in my life.

Nora Roberts, under any name, is not an author I have ever really gotten into books by, not even during my avid reader days. I'm not sure why, but her books just don't resonate with me.

I love the romantic, corny books that Nora Roberts writes. It is a fairytale of a love that most of us know seldom comes around, but can help the reader imagine, even for a moment, that it is out there.

I like the J.D. Robbs more but I have a couple of Nora Roberts books too, they about 3 sets of series and I truly enjoyed them. I'm not a romance novel reader especially if it's just about that, but when there is a mix of genres with the romance I enjoy reading it. Nora has managed to do just that.

Nora Roberts is fantastic. Her books is one from top top drawer. She really knows her way about how to catch and sustain a readers attention from start to finish.
She is an epitome of never a dull moment

I like all of her writing. I can't think of a single one that I didn't love. I enjoy reading Nora Roberts stuff because most of the time it is unrealistic. I want to escape from reality for awhile.

I love Nora Roberts! I have never read a book by her that I didn't love! My favorites are the JD Robb books. Unless there is a JD Robb that has just come out, I have read every one of them! She is talented in so many different ways - writing romance novels, the JD Robb series, and even fantasy trilogies! She is my favorite author. :D :D

I've read her books under both pen names, and I loved each of them. I read her books but not as soon as they release. I pick them from time to time, I like them for the familiarity of her style of writing, for the sappy romance, and because I know whatever happens the protagonists will have a happily ever after. That familiarity is why I pick up her books from time to time.
