Well well! This is the *ahem* 'much awaited' page about romance, more particularly romantic novels! There is one site that everyone romance reader worth her (or his!) novels must go to; it is The Romance Reader! It's a fabulous site where you can get reviews about the latest release from all your favourite authors, among other stuffs like interviews with authors, freebies available etc. I go there to look for the latest recommended novels to keep my reading list up-to-date. *Sigh* If I showed half as much enthusiasm for reading my textbooks, I'm sure I'd have more 'A's on my uni transcripts hehehe :Þ
Sometimes you can go check out the amazon.com or other similar online booksellers; they too have some great reviews for you to browse through. I think amazon.com even tells you the other similar books from other authors when you are looking at certain novel. I drop by alt.bookstore too :)
My personal favourite authors are Judith McNaught and Julie Garwood, among many others. Linda Howard and Susan Elizabeth Phillips are added to my list not too long ago too *grin* I started reading my very frist romance when I was 13; I was at the bargain corner of a bookstore and picked up a romance. The plot seemed pretty rivetting, and I thought why not give it a try. And voila, the rest is history, if you don't mind the cliche ;) My affair (pardon the pun heheh!) with romance novels has since made me love all things romantic, as well as develop a love for reading. I was never like my friends who were avid readers since young. I never read all the Nancy Drew or Enid Blyton books; one can say I'm a 'late starter' hehe :)
Come on in and find out who are my favourite authors and their books!
If you know any sites that are good (about romances only,of course) do share them with me via e-mail!
