Customer Reviews

Wonderful Holiday Fun!

This book is one of my favourites from Nora Roberts! It's a fun, light read, and the fact that it's three shorter stories makes it perfect for the reader on the go. All of the stories are fun, but "Gabriel's Angel" is definitely the standout, being both the most lengthy and having the most developed characters. The stories, though recycled, are perfect for the Holiday season.

The Gift book by Nora Robberts

If you haven't read Nora Roberts before this is an excellent book to start with. It has many stories in it and all of them were exceptional! I read all of her books and this one came out in time for Christmas. I gave it as a gift as well to someone else.

The Gift

I just finished "The Gift" and knew they were dated and must be re-issues but since I had never read them before, that part was okay. The first story "Home for Christmas" was all pretty predictable. There could have been a lot more to this one. I liked all the characters but it was really just too short. It just ended and I would have liked to have seen Clara's reaction to knowing her real father. Then the second story: the only saving grace in this one are the twins. I couldn't get into liking Nell or Mac either one. They fight-have sex-fight some more and then it ends! Gabriel's Angel is worth buying the book. There is some depth to this story. However, I kept thinking why don't they talk about what is bothering them instead of it going on and on with their thoughts of each other but each afraid to share their feelings. I was thinking they both needed therapy but finally got it all solved. The book is okay; just not great!

Classic Nora That Touches Your Spirit

The other reviewer might be upset that this is older material, but I discovered Nora this year. Since January I've bought and read about 60 Nora Roberts. This is classic, perfect Nora Roberts. I started reading this book in the morning and had it finished by lunch. It is a wonderful, holiday read. If you believe that the spirit of Christmas is alive and well, Nora captures just a brief hint of that spirit and shares it with her readers in "The Gift". Even if you've read the stories before, read them again under one cover. With a tear or two in your eyes, you will be glad you did.
