Book Reviews of TributeBook Review: Nora Roberts creates another strong heroine! Summary: 4 Stars
As all of Ms. Roberts' books, this one has lots of romance, very real and likeable characters, and a surprising twist thrown in for good measure. In this case, a child actor (Cilla), now grown and searching for more from life, goes to fix up a home once owned by her famous, movie-star grandmother. Cilla has to rehab the house, deal with her feelings over the supposed suicide of her grandmother thirty years earlier in that very house, and figure out what her attraction is for her closest neighbor, graphic artist Ford. Only someone doesn't want Cilla there digging into thirty years of history, and someone may even kill to keep her from finding out what really happened to her grandmother. Ms. Roberts creates another strong heroine in Cilla McGowan, and another sexy hero in Ford Sawyer. When you add in the spectacular love scenes, the intriguing paranormal twist, and the murder mystery to boot, Ms. Roberts' fans will be once again paying "tribute" to a remarkable author.
Book Review: Nora at her best Summary: 5 Stars
A must read for anyone who enjoys good reading, good writing, and an overall great story! The characters are great as usual, get it, read it
Book Review: Nora has jumped the shark! Summary: 2 Stars
Nora Roberts has always been one of my all time favorite romance writers. She has truly written some great books. But her last several books have just been so uninspired. It's like she's going through the motions of writing simply to fulfill an obligation. Tribute was by far the most bland book I've ever read by her. I hope she redeems herself soon or all this mediocrity will prevent people from reading some fantastic books in her backlist.
Book Review: Nora's worst ever Summary: 1 Stars
I have read every Nora Roberts ever written and I think she really was asleep writing this one. She had more info on the details of rehabbing a home rather than dealing with the main relationships. And it was so Agatha Christie in that you would never think of the people responsible for the awful deeds based on the development of the characters. It was also too much of her past books but not as good as the ones before.
Book Review: Not a Tribute Summary: 1 Stars
This book was boring. It must be another of Nora's so-so books that she plans to make into another dull TV movie. I buy anything written by Nora but next time I will wait for the paperbacks.
Hope this doesnt happen to Nora's J.D.Robb "in Death" series.
Didnt care for a single character, premise or ending. "Knew" who the bad guy was the moment he appeared. Stale characters; stale storyline.
