Why Do Ladies Like To Read Romance Novels?

Hot flave, caramel flava?
Even the names sounds tacky!
Abegi, bo to the ring
I hate books that talks abt "oh, I loff you" "No, I love you more" or "I like the way you shake that thang, gurl". . . .Like wha da freak? boring!!
Abeg, give a book where someone died or something dark jare

when a woman starts reading romantic novels, be it known to you that she is seeking info to apply.
these books they read is responsible for the pendulum act seen in their love life.
the more they read they more they are confused.

its quite easy to deal with a woman that reads such novels coz they have nothing to offer but looking for fantasy.

Women love romance, Gbamm!!!

i found out about the "the same finishing"/ predictable part when i was about 11 years old. That was when i stopped reading romance novels. John Grisham's the bomb. Irving Wallace and Erich Segal are VERY good too. I'd rather do  "romantic" than "romance" books. Stuff like Erich Segal's "LOVE STORY" and "Oliver's Story", Waller's "The Bridges of Madison County" and "A Thousand Country Roads",  Nicholas Sparks' "A Walk To Remember" and all that. But Mills and Boon and stuff SUCK big time.

simply put, they believe that love is whAT you read in books!

   common "NELLA" why do you have to say that when their are many novels for you ladies to read out there!!, y because i don't belive that you women have feelings.

iice, please kindly tell me y you ignore them?

I like romance novels because they makes me feel relaxed anytime.

Why the complain?, as far as they read at all…nigerians don’t have a reading culture   

We read 'em to escape the harsh realities of our romanceless world. 

@ iice
Lol, you and me both. My sister thinks it's the reason I have problem writing romance and all that lovey, dovey crapola. The moment I see "Slowly undressing" the pages starts flickering, sometimes I don't even touch 'em. . . It's like mind control.

Seriously though why do they all have to slooooowly undress? For ordinary bath, I don't slowly undress then it's right in the middle of the action I start unbuttoning one. by. one? Yeesh!

Lol, I swear it was mind control and hell yeah the tearing of the clothes is preferable to the slowly undressing.

My first real romance, romance book was Slow Heat in Heaven by Sandra Brown. The name should have been a hint, right? Nope, not to me. . . hey, I’ve never had a problem admitting I can be sometimes slow. Anyway, before this book, all I read were books where someone was murdered, possessed, hunted and the usual bloody good stuff.

This is how it started, my sisters and I were traveling and I had miscalculated,  . . I usually have at least 3 books with me but somehow this time, I didn't and was so happy to see my sister had extra book. I start reading, it didn’t look so bad. Oh la la! Someone is dead. . . an old man but a dead person nonetheless, Brilliant! There seems to be a mystery of sorts here, I'm liking, I'm liking! The main guy is a li'l on the caveman macho side for me but aah, I'm sure I’ll get past that and before I can finish that thought. . . BAM! Sandra Brown took it to another level. Okay, I don’t know if you’ve read any of her books but Sandra brown is borderline insane with her descriptions. 

So there I was. . . 13yrs old, sitting in the most uncomfortable airline seat ever with one sister on my left. . . fast asleep, the second on the other side of the aisle doing whatever, reading "he flickered his tongue on her clitoris" (I swear I didn’t know what that was. . . Clitoris I mean) I quickly closed the book and looked around hoping no one saw me (if it was today, I'm sure they would have suspected I was up to no good and maybe the innocent looking thing in my hand was a bomb not a book with the way my eyes was darting all over the place) Jeebus! What the heck was that? So this is what my sister reads? What can of perverted person am I related to? I swear on everthing, I am telling my mommy on her and maybe even Hadjia (my grandmother) too. . . just as soon as I finish the book. Yep, I couldn’t stop!

Now before you call me hypocrite, let me explain myself. See, I had to find out for my peace of mind that the two people having sex were not freaking siblings because right to the very second they were grunting and panting, this insane woman insinuated they were half siblings!! Can you imagine this rubbish? It was too much for my 13 yrs old mind to comprehend! When I was done ( I skipped pages like a mofo) I jejely dropped back in my sister’s bag and nary a word I said. It took me 3 yrs to pick up another romance book. Luckily Judith McNaught is a delightful writer.

Here's an idea, maybe we should all talk about how first romance novel experience. We have kukuma accepted we like to read it, so what else is there to talk about? 

Nah, it wasn't Flowers in the Attic like ( what was V. C Andrews thinking). These ones thought they might be but couldn't fight the attraction and were quite relieved when they found out they weren't. . . after sexing each other up like oh I don't know 5 TIMES!! (Errrr. . . I'm guessing of course, remember I skipped pages  )

I got tired of the Sweet Valley Highs quickly, meanwhile I'D read the Famous fives, Secret Sevens, Hardy Boys, Nancy Drews over and over again. Also loved CS Lewis Narnia Series, The Malloy Towers and St.Claires books.

Did You ever complete the Series for Flowers in the Attic.  . . especially Gardens of Shadows? Eeeeek!

Find out some few years back that it wasn't even VC Andrews who wrote the rest of it but a ghostwriter. Apparently, FITA was the only she wrote. No wonder it stood out.

Let's just say the rest of the books in the series seemed a little forced, you know. As if going out of the way to match Flowers in the Attic in everything. . . especially the ick factor.

Gardens of Shadows is the last but the first. It tells the story of how Chris and Cathy's parents - Chris and Corrine (I think) met. . . Why the grandmother Livia became the person she was in FITA and some minor characters introduced in Petals in the winds, If there be Thorns and Seeds of Yesterday.

Apart from the forced part, I'll recommend reading everything.
