The Hollow May 12, 2008 this was an OK read for me. I have been a Roberts fan for years and go to her book signings often. I have loved most of her works. I have to agree with another reviewer on this site though. Roberts characters are just the same old stuff over and over and over again in her trilogies. say smart mouthed tough female or version of, Don't get me wrong I love powerful women characters but I am sick of the same type of character again and again.
I would like to see different types of characters like in her earlier works instead of versions of the same old stuff.
Nora Roberts knows how to write 'em!!! May 12, 2008 An excellent second book in the trilogy! I couldn't ask for better. We're taken back to Hawkin's Hollow and its residents - good and bad. Some you love, some you love to hate.
This book circled mostly around Layla and Fox - their relationship blossoms in this novel, and I loved how they got the feel of each other - thoughts and feelings. Working together, being together... You get more of their backgrounds, what Fox was like as a kid and growing up. Layla gets to chat with his parents - together and separately, and adores his family almost as much as him. It was a little annoying how it took nineteen out of twenty chapters for her to finally admit she was in love it him - to herself and out loud to Fox himself - but I think it was perfect. I wouldn't have had it any other way.
You still get time with Cal and Quinn, and you know, just like in the first novel, they love each other deeply.
And wether Cybil and Gage want to admit it or not, I think they are very much stuck together. It'll be interesting to see them bloom in the third novel. They are alike in a lot of ways - and neither would ever admit to it.
In this novel, we're taken back in time through Ann's journals. You get a little better understanding of what they're up against. The troubles escalate, fear is mounting, as well as their determination as a group to finally stop Twisse.
I can't wait to see what the last novel - which is going to drive me absolutely crazy seeing as the third and final book in the trilogy, The Pagan Stone, isn't out until late November, early December `08. The six-month wait is going to kill me, LOL!
A little disappointed May 12, 2008 This was a good read, but I was a little disappointed...the book seemed like a filler and didn't have much action until the end. And now I have to wait until December for the final installation! I think this would have been a great one-book novel.

I really enjoyed the first book of this trilogy. I felt it moved along quickly and held my attention.
However this one got bogged down in the relationship between Fox and Layla and didn't focus enough on the mystery. I finally got fed up with wasting my time when I was just over halfway through the book and skipped to the end.
Yawn.
Definitely Not "Hollow" May 10, 2008 Ms. Nora all I can say is... You've Done It Again! After reading Blood Brothers I couldn't wait for The Hollow, pre-ordered it and still couldn't wait, ran out Tuesday and bought it (^secretly has double n triple copies of nora books stashed throughout the house for that quick fix). What can I say I'm a sucker for a fabulous book. Fox and Layla bring out the best in people. Fox with his giving ways and Lalya with her ordered thinking and newly found gift. For all of you who want the/a raunchy quick fix for the wild side of sex, then pick up something different. This book portrays the lights and darks of life, love and humanity. In a place where true Evil wishes to reign supreme,love and friendship hold it at bay, slapping it in the face just by living and doing what needs done. I absolutely cannot wait for The Pagan Stone in December
