Fun and light reading.......2006-06-13

From the Heart was a nice break from the romance/suspense that NR's been really into lately. I enjoyed reading NR's earlier work. Tonight and Always was my favorite of the three.

Not Worth Buying..........2004-10-13

It's a waste of money. I went through the first story. It was pretty okay to be honest with you. But the characters seem a little...cold. Unfeeling. I realize that the collection of story was her rookie story but c'mon it could have been a lot better than it is now. Gimme a break, I couldn't even tell if it was Nora Roberts! The second and the third story I didn't even bother to finish after the first few chapters. It made me sick. It was corny and unbelievale. I kept on asking myself, 'Is this really Nora Roberts?' or 'Why do I bother reading this?!'
This book was nothing but a disappointment. I thought it would be fun to read the first stories of a fiction phenomenon but it turn out to be a disaster. From now on, I'll just read the new ones, the one from 1990 and up I'll be sure to check out the publish date before anything else. But if you're a person who likes to read old stories from Nora, I suggest Blithe Images. It's pretty good.

This book doesn't diserve a star at all. Period. But if I don't Amazon won't let me review. SO this concludes my review. DON'T BUY IT! IT'S A WASTE OF 8 DOLLARS!

couldn't even finish it.......2003-02-07

All three stories were obvious, with cliche dialogues and simply BORING. I am a Nora Roberts fan and for the first time in my life I couldn't go past page 20 on each story. Nothing against the characters or the plots themselves... they simply didn't catch me at all.

I am glad I got checked out this book from the library and didn't waste money on it.

Good collection.......2002-10-28

I was a bit surprised at the not-so-great reviews this collection of Nora Robert's old romance novels got. I borrowed this book from a friend a couple of years ago even though I don't usually read Nora Roberts as I'm not really into the romance/suspense genre. But when I found a copy at a used bookstore recently, I bought it because I remembered how much I loved the first story, "Tonight and Always" and the third one, "Endings and Begininngs". I can't even decide which of these stories I like better than the other but I have to say they're one of the best stories I've read so far. The only reason I'm not giving this book a 5-star rating is because I seriously did not enjoy the second story, "A Matter of Choice". The plotline, dialogue and characters are predictable, overused and just plain boring.
If you're wondering whether you should buy this book, I'd suggest you scour the used bookstores first to get a real worth for your money or I guess you can find the individual books. One way or another, "Tonight and Always" and "Endings and Beginnings" are MUST-READS for all romance fans.

Book Description

Aquaculture? Haemophilia? Isochronous? Neuralgia? Polyunsaturated? Rodenticide? How often do we see a technical word without quite knowing what it means? If we can decipher it-undo its language code-we can start to understand others of a similar kind. For example, if we know that words beginning with aqua are to do with water, then we are half way to understanding the word aquaculture. Ologies and Isms is about the building blocks of the English language - the beginnings and endings, and sometimes the middles - that help form or adapt many of the words we use. Whether you're a student or a practitioner, a teacher of English, an inveterate word-user, or just a seeker-out of linguistic trifles, Ologies and Isms will help you understand better the language of your workplace and the world around you.

Job Loss: Although It Is An Ending, Will It Be a Beginning

Manufacturer: Trafford Publishing
ProductGroup: Book
Binding: Paperback
ASIN: 1412044278
Release Date: 2005-07-25

Product Description

The purpose of this book is to help a dismissed employee identify personal characteristics and professional situations that may affect emotions following a job loss. Although methods of coping with job loss may be distinctive, caring for oneself after job loss is somewhat similar to coping with life's other losses. Dismissed employees sometimes describe the feeling as if somebody had died. That is because bereavement is the state of having experienced a loss - whether death is involved or not. There are numerous comparisons between job loss and the grief response to death.

The characteristics and professional situations that affect emotions following job loss include personality, personal responsibilities, personal and professional goals, expectations of life and employment,loss history,length of service and employability,type of job loss and dismissal conditions.

Self-care suggestions include assess and reassess reality, give others an opportunity to offer support; determine if experts are needed; provide for mental and physical health, avoid indulging in self-pity, seek a health diversion, keep a sense of humor; lean on your spiritual foundation or consider developing one, and planning for the future.

This book also highlights the impact of the actual job loss process upon a dismissed employee for the use of any employee of large corporations or small firms doing human resource tasks.

In the Beginning..........2005-04-07

In this earlier romance novel by Nora Roberts, we're introduced to a tiny bit of the edge-of-your-seat drama that is prevalent in some of her recent works.

Liv Carmichael and T.C. Thorpe are rival reporters in the television news game. A typical love story with the normal plot that has been done over and over again: Woman meets man. In this case they have known each other for a few years, as they are always trying to beat the other to the story and be the first on the air to tell their viewing public about the latest headline-making news.

They deny their love/attraction. Liv denies the attraction, but T.C. just seems to go with the flow of things. Liv doesn't want to be involved with her competition and is afraid a relationship will slow her killer instincts when it comes to her job.

Circumstances bring them together. This is the part where the book becomes interesting. T.C. is taken hostage and the nutcase holding him makes demands using T.C.'s safety as the negotiating factor in meeting those demands. Liv is torn between getting the story and helping to rescue T.C. Like all good romances, love wins in the end. Ah, isn't that sweet?

This book is a no-brainer as it is an easy read and you don't have to think much about the plot lines, etc. I've heard the term "throw away books" used to describe these paperbacks with between 125 and 200 pages and I feel that's an apt description of this one. You'll be able to read this in a couple of hours so it won't interfere much with your busy schedule. It's not a masterpiece, but it is kinda fun!

Book Description

National Book Award nominee Beth Kephart's new book is an enchanting midlife meditation on aging, identity, and memory set against the backdrop of Chanticleer garden in Pennsylvania. On the morning of her forty-first birthday, Kephart, a mother, wife, and writer pressured by deadlines, finds herself at Chanticleer, one of the world's most celebrated pleasure gardens. She knows little of the language of flowers. Week after week, she returns to Chanticleer, recalling her childhood self, mulling over legacy and soul, striking up friendships with gardeners and conversations with other visitors. Succored by the seasons and the weather, she finds the grace notes in approaching middle age. There are lessons in seeds, and she finds them. There are lessons in letting go. Kephart writes about questions we all ask ourselves: How do we remember who we used to be? How do we imagine who we'll become? Have we lived our lives as we set out to do? What legacies do we wish to leave behind? The book spans a two-year cycle, and each chapter is accompanied by a gorgeous black-and-white photograph of Chanticleer by William Sulit. Ghosts in the Garden pulses with possibility and purpose, with wisdom that is ageless and transcendent.
