im a lover of romance novels, m&b's take me less than a day and contemporary romance a little over a day but my passion lies with historical romance novels, a few of my favourite authors include:
Judith Mcnaught
Amanda Quick
Nora Roberts (though more into contemporary)
Johanna Lindsay
so if ure into romance novels like i am, sign in

It educates u on some certain things.
Well I like reading it when less busy, or when trying to find out something about romance.

Novels, like movies, don't educate. They entertain. If you want education, read a textbook.

They are just the creation of the writer and you can never get one fifth of that in a real setting.  |

novels could be intresting but they can sometimes take a lot of time ,in my case i go for movies,where from the first 10mins i know if its going to be a great movie or not .i think the series rock,like lost,prison break,smallville and the other nice ones,but when i just want to chill out and relax no pressures i log on to http://enopaceel.blogspot.com its a new refreshing site ,u should try it out. |

M&B, harlequin, silheoutte etc My first M&B was Stormy voyage (I stole it from my sister) Used be an ardent reader, but later I grew bored. Bored stiff of the prince charming stereotype, I started looking out for stronger themes where the guy was the don't mess with me kind of person, strong and not the gentle type. As I grew older, I found out I did not want to be serenaded by sweet, sweet pathetic love messages. I was even addicted to the extent I could be reading five books at a time. I would not get out of my room for like hours. I probably lost my conversational skills during those periods. Ironically, romance novels have actually made me cynical and sarcastic about love and men. Sorry to spoil everyone's thunder  . |

Point of correction, there is always a thing or two to learn in any creative piece of writing. Even if its romance, u will carefully pick out a thing or two. @Topic I'm bored of the likes of M&B series, I cannot even belief i was once a fan, the small pages it has sef annoys me. I prefer Bestseller romance now. The book has to be "big". i like to flip through pages, endlessly. And Hey! romance novels has a lot to teach. |

hmmmmmmmm ayeesha im not so sure romance is a guy thing, getting your guy addicted too, thats a bit far off
anyways glad u share my passion, historical romances are just so sweet, i wish they could adapt them into movies like they do the bestsellers, it'd be lovely to watch.

I love all novels though I also read romantic suspense. My favourit writers are Ken Follett, John Grisham, David Baldacci, James Patterson. My favourite romance writer is Linda Howard. I like Tami Hoag as well. Nora Roberts is not bad. By the way her novels have been made into novels and are being shown on DSTV

I also like linda howard, ive read some of her books
