Book Reviews of Purity in Death
Book Review: Eve from the Past, to Eve of the Future. How does she do it?
Summary: 5 Stars
I used to hate reading. My mother would have to bribe me to read in school. It was aweful. I tried to get into book or to even like them, I just couldn't find things that could grab my attention and hold it.I recently attended colleg in California, where my Gram reads all her books faithfully and got me hooked! I can't imagine not reading her books. I have sent myself on a mission to read all of Mrs. Roberts books, so far I have a lot in my collections and am patintly awaiting her new releases.
In 'Purity in death' I am just stunned she gets me eveytime, I sit there going who is it and what are they up to next. She is amazing, and I have to congragulate her on her many and wonderful accoplishments,. Thank you for doing what you do best Mrs. Roberts I truly enjoy reading your work!
Book Review: Great - But 1 Big Mistake!
Summary: 5 Stars
I am a big fan of Nora Roberts and the 'In Death' series. I find the characters well thought-out and intriguing... it is a joy to come across those vital 'nuggets' of information that give the series such heart and depth. Those tidbits of personal information (Peabody's childhood, Summerset's past, etc.) keep the series interesting...but please Ms. Roberts, keep the details consistent! In a past book (I don't remember which), Mira had shaken Eve out of her shell by admitting she herself had been a victim of sexual abuse as a young teenager by her stepfather. In this book - Mira muses about her semi-retired parents happily enjoying their lives. Am looking forward to more books (and 'Purity' is the best in a long while) - but hope the characters remain true to past books!Book Review: Fantastic series.
Summary: 5 Stars
This book tops the last book. Eve Dallas is in her element and closing in on the culprits and and taking everyone in and justice is served or is it? My favorite of the series so far. Purity justice served or more vicious killing by a virus that is spread to its victim online, this raises a moral issue and very emotional to Eve for past and present. All my favorite characters are in this one, and finally Mavis reappers and in a very big and futuristic way and brings a surprising announcement to Eve,I loved how Eve reacts to this. Will Portrait have more of Mavis,I hope because she is one of my favorits. I missed a lot Summerset and Eve's constant bickering, but I know he will be back. Read this book, you will not be disappointed. These characters are all like family to me.Book Review: Once again she does it!!
Summary: 5 Stars
I must agree with the reviewer with no " real review". She is truly phenomenal.The In Death series is the best suspense series out there and the trick is the books just keep getting better. You absolutely cannot wait until the next one is published. Ms Robb has the talent to build characters, turns suspense from some simple element, just the right romance and humor all the way through.
In this installment of the In Death series, there is a computer virus going around New York and this is spreading from computer to man. People are dying and they cannot figure out what is causing it and who is behind this.
All the characters are back and some may even be in danger.
An excellent addition to the series and a must read....!
Book Review: Not her best work
Summary: 3 Stars
Okay, I'm disappointed in this one. I worried about the ongoing quality of the series after Roberts/Robb committed to publishing 2 books/year in this series; look at how many new Nora Roberts/J. D. Robb titles were already coming out a year. When they were released on an 8-9 month schedule it seemed possible, but this is inhuman and it shows. (Of course, the ghostwriter rumor could be true. I gave it no credence until I read the first 4 chapters of Purity..., now it sounds a little more credible.)Having said that, bad J. D. Robb is still much better than most of what gets published. I stayed up way too late to finish it. If you like the series and the characters, you'll like it, but it's not the tour-de-force that Naked in Death is.
