I have three books on my TBR pile that a friend loaned me last year and I have never read them. They are: Chesapeake Blues - Nora Roberts Northern Lights - Nora Roberts Every Breath You Take - Judith McNaught I've never read anything by either author. Based on the cover info, the first one and the last one look like part of series, or at least, a followup to an earlier book. I hate to read something when I don't know the previous story, but I don't want to return these to my friend until I've at least tried to read one or two. Any suggestions as to which one is best?

Out of those 3 books, I'd choose the McNaught. It is not part of a series eventhough characters from some of her other books have small parts in it. I enjoyed it. |

I would choose Northern Lights by Nora Roberts. She is always an excellent read and the book isn't part of a series. But, Chesapeake Blue is the Book that is the Sequal or extra to her Quinn Brothers Trilogy. Sea Swept, Rising Tides, and Inner Harbor, in case your interested. |

Oh, yeah, you gotta read Sea Swept, Rising Tides and Inner Harbor before reading Chesapeake Blue - but that is one of my all-time favorite series, so it's well worth it to get all 4!! I don't think I've read the other 2, but the McNaught doesn't appear to be in a series. You can find out any author's series (and order) by searching the Fantastic Fiction database. |

I've heard Northern Lights is good but haven't read it yet. I started her Chesapeake series but wasn't into them at the time though I may give them a whirl again later! |

I read that McNaught book many years ago and loved it, as I recall. I would read that one if I was you. |

Thanks for the help. I started with Northern Lights, and if I finish that before I get the next ones I want to read in the mail, then I'll read the McNaught book. But I'm not reading Chesapeake because I really don't want to start another series. Thanks again for the help. You guys know everything! Last Edited on: 5/5/09 5:52 PM ET - Total times edited: 1 |
