Nora Roberts Collection

So as many people know that my book collection is over six thousand books now. If I actually took the time to count them right now, it may very well be over that by now. 

However, even my husband knows that there is one author that I prize above all others. Her name is Nora Roberts. 

That is not to say that the other authors I read aren't great or one of my favorites, just that Nora Roberts will always come first in my book. 

One of the main reasons is because she is the author that got me back into reading in the first place. The very first book I read was Rapture in Death, technically under her pen name J.D Robb. In my 8th grade English class, we were told to partner up and do a type of book report. It was a great assignment because we could pick any book that we wanted. 

My partner was a friend of mine that I had been close to since elementary school and I let her pick the book. She was reading the In Death series by J.D Robb and was on Rapture in Death when the report came around. I said what the hell. At the time I wasn't reading at all so it didn't make any difference to me. 

Let me tell you, that book got me right back into reading. After I read Rapture in Death, I had to go back to the beginning. It was a series that I kept up with and still do to this day. When I discovered that J.D Robb was a pen name for Nora Roberts I just had to see what she was like and I was not disappointed. 

Nora Roberts got me back into reading and I absolutely love her. I hope that when we go to Boonsboro, I can meet her. I'll be star struck. It'll be a dream come true. Which is why I doubt it lol. 

I have collected almost every cover of each book. I have the large prints and mass market paperbacks. I'm even starting to collect the hard back versions as well as audio. I have all of the DVD's that were made and will soon be ordering the VHS of the one I don't have. 

I have worked and my husband has worked very hard to make this into a collection and I love him for helping me even though he doesn't read at all. 

If you haven't read her books you really should. 

Nora Roberts goes by J.D Robb, Sarah Hardesty and Jill March.

HAPPY READING!!!!!

New Release by J.R Ward

I'm just slightly late on this post but I think everyone will forgive me. 

The beautiful and wonderful J.R Ward has released her newest book in the amazing Black Dagger Brotherhood series. 

For those who like Paranormal Romance or hell if you just like Paranormal books this is the series for you. 

J.R Ward is having a signing event this weekend in Cincinnati, Ohio that I will sadly not be attending. I wish everyone that is going, a great time and I can't wait to see pictures. 

The woman is not only a genius with words but she's also hilarious. I loved seeing her at the Karen Marie Moning signing a couple years ago and I can't wait to be able to go to another event again. 

HAPPY READING EVERYONE!!!!
