DANCE UPON THE AIR Reviewed by: Rachel
A Hyde, MyShelf.com Nora Roberts knows how to dish up a real feel good book. There is something about this tale of the island sanctuary that is as tasty as homemade apple pie and as wholesome. She also paints a chillingly convincing picture of a battered wife and a spoiled, cruel husband that is sure to strike a chord of sympathy in the hearts of all women and have them cheering her on as she finds ways of empowering herself. The witchcraft angle adds a certain escapism to what is essentially an all too realistic story although I felt that it would have been even better if this had been omitted as in the end, it makes Nell's newfound strength seem at least half the stuff of fantasy, which is a pity. This minor gripe aside though, I did truly enjoy this novel and can recommend it heartily. |
