A friend recommended Francine Rivers' "Mark of the Lion" series to me, and I am so grateful!! I love to read, but it is not often that my life is enriched by a work of fiction. From the very first book I found myself not only engaged, but... read full review | report as inappropriate
While I found the writing and the stories in these books engaging and interesting, I was bothered by the unrealistic characters who were often too perfect and often behaved in manners that seemed to be uncharacteristic. As is often the case in... read full review | report as inappropriate
I wish I could have chosen 3 1/2 stars. This series is not a 3 but it is not quite a 4 or a 5. I have read the first 2 books and I enjoyed them. However, I personally feel that Mrs. Rivers could have left some of the detail out. While what... read full review | report as inappropriate

Author: Anya Seton - (Paperback) ... more
I first picked up this book when I was 11. A beautiful novel that brings medieval England to life,it also connects many historical figures. Geoffrey Chaucer, who was Katherine's brother-in-law, is portrayed as talented and humerous and a little... read full review | report as inappropriate
I ordered Katherine because I absolutely loved Green Darkness by this author. I can only say that it reads very much like any other "romance" novel put out by the thousands on a daily basis. read full review | report as inappropriate
Although this is not "Great Literature", it is at least a decent bit of writing based on the lives of actual historical figures and a fair overview of late fourteenth century English history. Learning a bit of history never hurt anyone, even if... read full review | report as inappropriate

It is time for you to leave. The Inquisition is has started and they are looking for you. If you don't escape they will arrest and execute you for heresy. That is what life was like when Hannah Green's mother was killed for being a Jew in... read full review | report as inappropriate
Gregory's writing is beautiful but the main character, Hannah, is an idiot. I know Gregory wanted to create Hannah as a "fool" in her personal life as well as life at court, but she so truly ridiculous that she is unrealistic. I loved the entire... read full review | report as inappropriate
Author: Nora Roberts, J.D. Robb - (Paperback) - 2001 ... more
I loved this story, as is the case with all J.D. Robb In Death books. Susan Erikson is wonderful; the different voices she uses for each character is amazing. read full review | report as inappropriate
I've been an avid fan of the series since it's beginning. I'm on my second time through them. This time I'm listening to the audio versions. The previous recordings have been fabulous. Susan Ericksen is so talented. But this one..... She changed... read full review | report as inappropriate

Author: Johanna Lindsey - (Hardcover) - 2007 ... more
I was re-reading The Heir just before this came out, having no clue what this new book would be about. Having read all her other books, I knew there had to be a story about Raphael Locke and Ophelia Reid. Well you can imagine my surprise when I... read full review | report as inappropriate
I was really disappointed by this novel. It started off slow and just when things were getting interested the plot stalled and then abruptly ended. I have never read one of her books where the ending seemeed like an afterthought. I certainly had... read full review | report as inappropriate
Johanna Lindsey has definately been able to recapture some of the old magic that was lost from her previous titles. The Devil who Tamed her was a wonderfully delightful read with the two main characters being very interesting. Ophelia and Rafe... read full review | report as inappropriate

I have not read the book yet but am extremely disapointed in the price! Not sure why Amazon is charging $5 for a $3 book that only has 87 pages. I agree with Diana it is not worth buying this from Amazon. read full review | report as inappropriate

I cannot believe these reviews. I bought this book because of them, I was a little more than disappointed. I love a tortured hero. THe plot had alot of possiblitlies. It was simply the writing. Absolutely elementary level. I'm so sorry but... read full review | report as inappropriate
I got this book from an annual book swap, along with more than 20 other books. I admit that I wasn't particularly eager to read this book right away because the synopsis at the back of the book is not that interesting (and considering I have a... read full review | report as inappropriate
