The Collector is on my list to read, but I'm only about number 95 on the hold list at the library, so it's probably going to be a fall read instead of a summer one!Lark @ The Bookwyrm's Hoardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08639732368395025578noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5128730358349082407.post-90184000056728063062014-06-18T08:46:09.116-05:002014-06-18T08:46:09.116-05:00I liked it better than some of her more recent boo...I liked it better than some of her more recent books but not as much as her older books.

I enjoyed one she had a few years back called The Witness as well.

She does a great job in portraying friendships and relationships between people. Plus she has books set in Ireland which is always a plus for me.

I did get past it because I liked the characters so much and he's an artist so an odd name is more acceptable than if he'd been a banker or something.

In this case it didn't bother me too much because I did enjoy The Collector quite a bit. It's definitely a great summer read.

However I have heard several readers complain about that. I guess, based on the overwhelming amount of books she has written under various names, that she either stops writing or has to occasionally repeat. Her fans would vote for the latter :) Thanks for a good review;Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5128730358349082407.post-24464830217809417622014-06-16T17:14:18.427-05:002014-06-16T17:14:18.427-05:00The repeat in romance has me a tad worried but I a...The repeat in romance has me a tad worried but I am excited to crack my copy openKimberly @ Caffeinated Reviewerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15658833731713991138noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5128730358349082407.post-49576947312396120572014-06-16T14:15:06.659-05:002014-06-16T14:15:06.659-05:00I have yet to read one of her books-really need to...I have yet to read one of her books-really need to try one soon!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
