“I’ve said before and will say again, I’d rather be poked in the eye with a burning stick than tweet,” Nora Roberts admitted recently. She was responding to Tomi Adeyemi, who had tweeted a picture of Roberts’s thriller, “Of Blood and Bone” — which debuts this week at No. On Nov. 28, Adeyemi tweeted, “Nora was kind enough to reach out & explain that today was the first she’d heard of my book. After talking to her, I believe our titles were created in isolation. I’m grateful she explained & I’ve apologized.”
