When my sister and I worked at the hospital we used to buy them for 20cents each at the volunteers store once a week. Once we'd read them, we'd donate them back again, LOL.
I have authors I like and some I really don't. I hate the ones where the man is incredibly mean and the woman is incredibly stupid. (There are loads of these.) I tend not to finish those ones.
I like the romance, I like the impossibly 'intuitive' love-making (not just intercourse, filthy-minded girls!) - it is complete escapism for me.
TD, DH was the first guy I fell in love with, and we have been together since I was 18. I didn't have a serious relationship before him. So I find them interesting on a relationship level - particularly the relationships that are constant bickering until the inevitable mad pash, LOL!
Dach, do you really think they are lucrative? I would've thought they'd be a dime a dozen?
Yeah, they are a dime a dozen but they are pretty much gauranteed sellers so if you can hit the formula you'll get a great pay check.
Barbara Cartland made a fortune from romance novels.
my faves are the sexy collection. Nothing better than to read about what people get up to behind closed doors, but then again these characters in M&B do it everywhere!
