Hidden Nature
by Nora Roberts
Kind of a bummer. The overall pacing was a bit off. I’ve gotten used to Nora’s “formula” but something about this just felt off. Or maybe it was just boring?
I was invested enough when I was reading that first day, but then didn’t really have a huge desire the next day to pick it back up. If it wasn’t for book club, I am not 100% sure I’d have prioritized finishing.
We start off with a shooting and then we kinda mosey on through her recovery, meeting the rest of the characters, and doing a whole bunch of home renovation. Boring AF honestly. I don’t really expect much from Nora when it comes to the romance, and so the sort of instalove with them didn’t bother me as much but it also didn’t really add anything to the story because they were kinda meh as a couple.
But the plot? I wish we had spent more time focused on the investigation and finding out who the bad guys are than we did. Those parts were interesting. And I know some people don’t care for it, but I actually liked the chapters from the bad guys’ POV. There were wackadoodle and I kind of wish we got more background on why TF they were doing what they were doing and how they met.
