Nora Roberts is a legend, but Tomi Adeyemi is hotter than her right now in 2018. Fact. Tomi's book, Children of Blood and Bone was on New York Times Best Seller list for more than 20 weeks earlier this year, and the movie adaption is on the way. How can people say Tomi is seeking attention. Old writers like Nora Roberts hardly write all their stories again...they have ghost writers write them. It is just their brands that sell right now. Nora's publishers might have thought of that title to ride the wave of Tomi's book. 2 Likes |

Biodun1929: One of the few comments that makes sense here. Nigerians never cease to amaze me. I'm no fan of Tomi and don't really like the book but... The fact is that she is more relevant than this so called Nora right now. This old writer is just seeking relevance just like many established writers eventually do once they're washed out .... I'm convinced that Nora's publishers intentionally played on Tomi's title because she's hot cake right now. I actually think Tomi made a mistake by giving attention to her book...that's exactly what the publishers want....free promotion for Nora's new book. 1 Like |

Gentlemen and ladies, Toyin Adeyemi got the title of her book from Laini Taylor's Daughter of Smoke and Bone, published in 2011. I don't want to talk about Adeyemi's book, which is a wrongly corrupted narration of Yoruba myths. If you read the book, you'll almost cry for the Yoruba race. She doesn't have any inkling about Yoruba myth. Sadly, Americans have gone crazy over the book. |

I imagined Nora's being accused of stealing the whole plot from our sister's book. Why will an ordinary original title, be so hard to come up with? This lady just wants to cause a flurry of activity on webspace and apparently does not know what the legendary Nora Roberts is about. SMfyneH @ her. |
