Book Review of Identity by Nora Roberts – I recently took some time out during spring break to read a book. Yes, I was able to curl up with my favorite beverage, and a few snacks, so I could read one of my favorite authors’ latest books. Or, I should say it is new to me as I have been on a major dry spell when it comes to reading simply for enjoyment. Identity was published last year so I am not too behind I guess.

The Mystery Writer by Sulari Gentill
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Theodosia Benton went to school in Australia to become a lawyer. Halfway through she drops out of school and runs to her brother in America. What she really wants to do is become a published author. She has a burning desire to create wonderful stories and get a traditional publishing contract. Her brother, already a prominent attorney and a partner in a Kansas law firm, wants her to have her dreams and agrees to allow her to live with him while she writes her first book. She devotes the next six months to doing just that. She hangs at at the local coffee/bar down the street from their house, meets published author who takes her under his wing. He doesn’t talk about his personal life only about the writing and helps her develop her story. When she figures out he is a ‘famous’ author she asked him to help her get an agent.
Theo is so excited about her writing coming togeher, her budding relationship with a published author and the friends she has made while living with her brother. However, all of that is about the change because in the background there is a web of lies surrounding them and their friends. The spark happens when Theo finds her author friend murdered. The actiion, suspense, and intrigue just keeps going from there.
I thought the action and intrique, twists and turns within the story were excellent. I read the entire book in one night and hope you will purchase a copy and read it as well.
