DNF at 35%It pains me to do this. I didn't think I would ever DNF a Nora Roberts book but, The Becoming was so boring. Honestly, the first two books in this series were a disappointment as have Nora Roberts' last several books. I've been a huge fan for decades and it's quite obvious her writing style has changed and not for the better. At least not for me. She seems to be writing more women's fiction and fantasy than romance. The last few books she's written, the characters had zero chemistry an...
Having just finished Book 1 on audiobooks and not being really engaged with the story, I was hoping that Book 2 would be a better experience.Unfortunately it wasn't. The audiobook narration was great, just as in the first book. I enjoyed the accents and the narrator had a variety of voices for the different characters which made it easier to keep everyone straight.I'm disappointed that I haven't been able to find the comfort in reading a Nora Roberts story that I once did. Not sure if it's me...
This seemed very YA to me, but not in a good way. Full of cliches that were repeted to exhaustion- the gay best friend's constant "You go girl" in all it's iterations and women unable to speak 3 words between them without opening a bottle of wine. It also suffered from pacing issues- this is the second installment and yet we're still sitting in on cooking and training sessions, daily breakdowns of routine schedules, and then when the dragons fully emerge into this DRAGON Heart Legacy- it's kind
The newest book in this set, The Becoming, is now out in the world, and gosh, this cover is equally gorgeous. I’ve been reading Nora Roberts’ books off and on since I was a teenager, and I continue to be impressed with what a prolific writer she is but also the number of different genres in which she writes. Her creativity is boundless. For example, The Dragon Heart Legacy trilogy is a paranormal/fantasy romance series. Totally outside my wheelhouse, I must say, but I thoroughly enjoyed the adve...
This was so needlessly long.
Okay, I loved the first book in this trilogy.. the ending of the first book, had me wondering what happened next for over a year.. So, this book opened and nothing really happened.. I enjoyed the story and Nora has a way with words, so I enjoyed the beauty of her words.. But it didn't really pack a punch like the last book.
4.5 Stars I just love these characters so much! And that ending 😬Mel 🖤🐶🐺🐾
The second novel in Nora Robert’s Dragon Heart Legacy, The Becoming is a fantastic addition to the series! With strong, immersive world-building, a well-layered and dynamic protagonist, and tons of heart-stopping action, the story is a magical and exciting read.In The Awakening, the first book in the series, Breen is just learning of her heritage and her powers. However, in this story, Breen is embracing and honing her abilities. She is truly “becoming” what Talamh needs to defeat the evil that

While I enjoyed The Awakening (my review), I loved this sequel. I love the writing and the characters! Even though I didn’t fully understanding the magics, it’s okay because Breen doesn’t understand either. Also, I’m not rating for
Suffers from "second book of a trilogy" syndrome, with a good bit of "more scenes with people we saw earlier."
I really enjoyed the first book in this series so I was really excited to have the opportunity to read an early copy of the next one. This one is just as magical as the first one. I wanted to travel with Breen and Marco. Ride a dragon high above the fields and witness all the magic. I enjoyed this book and anxiously await the next one.Thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for the early copy
Reviewed for Wit and Sin Return to the world of the Talamh, a world of the Wise and the Fey, of dragons and trolls; a world a fallen god seeks to destroy. In The Becoming , Nora Roberts continues to build on what she started with The Awakening, weaving a story of light versus dark. And at the center of it all is Breen Siobhan Kelly, the key to Talamh’s rise or fall, and a woman coming into her full power. The Becoming is very much a bridge book, for better or worse Much of the story fol...
