Welcome Aboard...
I've lived in Va Beach, and Norfolk, Va. I've never lived in West Virginia, but I've been there and it's beautiful. The Shenandoah valley is one of my favorite places. I may get back there someday, but until then I'll just have to go there when I read.
Hi all i love this group alot i only read 3 of her books but now i am reading another book by someone else. Does anyone know of another good book by nora?

Tammie, if you like the "Key" trilogy, you have to try the "Three Sisters" trilogy. They were my introduction to NR. :)

I originally thought that I wouldn't like her because every time I thought of romance novels, I mistakenly would relate the genre to Harlequin romances. Nora Roberts writes so well and the variety of her themes and twists hooked me right away. She is very versatile. I still don't read a lot of romances, but I read every Nora Roberts I can get my hands on.
Tammie, I loved the three fates by Nora, and the Chesapeake bay saga. Pretty much all of her books are good, but the newer ones seem to be the best. like 2000 and on. good luck. shes a great author.
I'm not sure if I'm supposed to do this, but here it is-
Hi, I'm Karlie and I've been a fan of Nora since I read Carolina Moon (which is still my favorite) and I've read at least a dozen of her novels. I've begun a few of her series' but I have to say so far my favorite series has been the Bridal Quartet. I am also a fan of the Eve Dallas series.

Thanks SherryD and Melody! :D
Hey Karlie. Carolina Moon was my first Nora Novel too. I fell in love with that one and now I can't get enough
Hi all NR fans! Oh I just love Goodreads where you can meet people that love the same things you do. Books!I haven´t read that many of Nora Roberts books yet, only 35 and two J D Robb ones (those were in Swedish and the translations sucked so I just have to re-read them in English).
This summer when I spent my holiday on an island, I finished all the books I had brought with me. I had angst for days. Why didn´t I bring more books, why???
So guess my surprise when my hubby gave me his laptop with like a million Nora Roberts e-books. Let´s just say he know his fast-reading wife better than she does herself.
My summer was suddenly looking much brighter.
Ever since then I read a Nora Roberts book for breakfast instead of the newspaper. So I get romance instead of war and accidents with my cereals.
I'm a big Nora Roberts/JD Robb fan - nice to have found a group with like-minded souls :)
I'm a big J.D. Robb fan....I love her writing style with the "In Death" series. I've only read one or two Nora Roberts books and I didn't like her writing style as much as I do with the J.D. Robb books. I would like to give Nora Roberts another try so I was wondering what are some of her better books....there are so many to choose from and I need help figuring out what her best ones are. Any suggestions?
Hi, I'm new here. I discovered Nora's books a year and a half ago, and have read around 15 of her books so far. I love her stories and her characters ... :o)
HI my name is RNDoi like read Nora Roberts, but i read J.D.Robb first and try to read Nora Roberts after that.
I lke her writing style, her theme of family, and the interaction from the character in her books
I hope i can discuss about Nora and J.D.Robb's books with you all.
Nice to meet ya ^^
Hi, all. I am a HUGE J.D. Robb fan who has recently started reading Nora's body of work. Easier said than done, right? I can't get into the trilogies, it gets a little repetitive for me, but the single titles have been a joy!
Carolina wrote: "Hi Jill! Welcome to this group. Looking forward to discussing books with you."Thanks! I love her books, but I am really hooked by the JD Robb series. I find her sense of humor engaging, and her charaters realistic and people I would like to know.

THree Sisters and her Key series amoung the best.

That's the one where the "spirits" live in a house, right? Or something like that. I also had to push through the "Hollow" series. To each his/her own, right? :-)

I know what you mean...I had a hard time getting into Nora, but I am enjoying the single titles that I've read.
Off the top of my head, try "Blue Smoke." Just don't watch the TV movie...unless it's free. :-)
What other authors do you like?
Take care.
Hey i'm Lizz and i'm 22 about to be 23. I foster puppies and I have two dogs of my own. I'm dyslectic but I love to read. If it wasn't for the english teachers I had in high school I won't be reading at all. I was reading on a 2nd grade level going into high school and left at a 9th grade level. I also have ADHA. You guys can ask me anything you what to know about what I went thourgh.
Hi, I'm Alyssa and I am a huge J.D. Robb fan. Since I am done with that series (anthologies included), I thought I would start reading her Nora Roberts books. I've really liked what I've read so far. I'm on the 2nd book in the Donovan series and I've read all of the Bride quartet series and can't wait for Happy Ever After in November.
I've been posting a bit around here but I just wanted to say hi to everyone! I'm a recent Nora Roberts fan because a friend recommended the Bride Quartet books to me this past summer. I'm currently re-reading Vision in White and can't wait for Parker's story in November. :)
I just joined this website today because I wanted to discuss books I've read with people who are reading the same thing. Also to get suggestions based on the books I’ve read. I think the first Nora Roberts book I read was Vision in White and I absolutely Loved it! I also recently read The Search, Black Hills and High Noon and I loved all of them. I love how they are romantic but also have a little suspense thriller too. So any suggestions on what to read next? Or just all of them? Lol. Thanks!
You might like the Chesapeake Bay series and the McKade Brothers series as well. I really liked the Stanislaski books as well. The Nightshade, Nightshield etc books are also a series.
Oops, sorry! Spelling error there. That's the MacKade series (4 books) and the Night Series (6 books in that one). The Garden Series has 3 books. That should keep you going for a while

In general, her standalones are romance/suspense.
The trilogies tend to be more romantic and often have a paranormal element.
She also has a lot of reprints out there of her early Silhouette short romances. Not sure if they will appeal to you, but they are great sweet romances to read if that's your thing.
Welcome to the group!
Hey everyone! My name is Jenn and i'm 24 yrs old andI absolutely love Nora Roberts and all her books. i am so glad i found this group so that i can chat with other Robert's fans! :)
Hello to everybody!
I'm Sky -that's not my real name of course but please call me so- and I discovered Nora Roberts just days ago :)
I saw the first book in the Dream triology at the bookstore and I remeber thinking "Huh, it sounds interesting." So I bought it. But that was weeks ago. I picked it up only few days ago and coudln't stop reading. The next day, I went to the bookstore to buy the rest of the triology which I finished in two days. I loved them! *sigh*
Now I'm currently reading Vision in White, and I'm planning to read more of Nora Roberts. So I thought it's just right that I join this group.

Just looking at where some of you live. I live in North Queensland, Australia and I'm telling you I'd have to throw a rock REALLY HARD to hit anything in the USA. Last time I was there I flew into Canada and spent a week in Montana (long before I actually read Montana Sky) and it was a long, long flight.
Hi My name is Gail and I am new to this group. I love Nora for obvious reasons and I also read and enjoy JD Robb. The 4th b ook of the wedding quartet has ben put on shelves early here in Canada and I picked it up last night. I love the search
I am relatively new to Nora Roberts/J.D. Robb, discovered her last year, although before that I had watched quite a few of her movies on Lifetime (books are so much better!), now I have read quite a few of her books. Love the trilogies and her In Death series most but there is still a lot out there that I haven't read yet.
Hello everyone,I am new to Goodreads. I found this group by happy accident.
I have read everything by NR except the elusice Promise Me Tomorrow. I am reading the In Death series now and am enjoying Eve and Roarke very much.
I was introduced to Nora Roberts when I picked up Chesapeake Blue. I live near the Bay and thought it would be a fun summer read. Then I had to go find the other books in the series. And an addiction was born.
I have poked around a bit and the group looks fun. I am sure I will enjoy participating.
Hi, my name is Nikki and I have been a fan of Nora Roberts for a long time! I really like her In the Garden trilogy. I loved Angel Falls! I really like your site so far. The reading list was very helpful. Thanks!
My name is Deanna and I have been a Noraholic FOR EVER!!! I was introduced to her work early, around the mid 80s when she started. But my love for her work just got outta control about 15 years ago and I have been collecting her books since. I am now within sight of the finish line (to this point) and only need 20 more books left (not including those due out this year). I also have EVERY JDRobb book published including the anthologies and mini books. I am so glad I am not the only one who loves this fabulous author...
Hi, my name is Neha and I am a huge fan of Nora Roberts. I love all her books and really like the way she creates a community environment and super strong characters.. I have read most of her books, but keep reading them again.. :)

My name is Talya, and I'm a Noraholic :-)
I've actually already been posting here, but I thought I'd formally introduce myself.
I actually read my first Nora book in 2008 - Tribute, then I took a couples years break, dunno why i took a break because I really enjoyed that book, anyways. I read a few single release titles, then switched to focus on triologies and sagas. I have read 30 titles so far and my goal is to have all of her books read by the end of 2011, which it seems I'm on schedule for.
Just love all things about her books, it's wonderful to relax and mentally get lost in her stories for a while.

I spent a couple of years in Virginia Beach at Ft. Story, I love the ocean even though it's not my original stomping grounds so to speak.
