Romance book meme

I stole this meme from the girls over at The Book Binge. I should really be doing other things besides this meme, but oh well.

1. One romance book you’ve read more than once. Man, I so rarely reread anything ever. There are just too many books. But if I were to reread a romance novel, I think it would be Patricia Gaffney’s Wild at Heart.

2. One romance book you want on a desert island. That would be hard. Only one? I’ll go with It Had to Be You by Susan Elizabeth Phillips.

3. One romance book that made you laugh. Most recently it was Biting Nixie by Mary Hughes. It’s an ebook, but dammit, it still counts.

4. One romance book that made you cry. Perfect by Judith McNaught.

5. One romance book you wish you had written. Gonna have to go with another ebook. Crossing Swords by Kirsten Saell. (She’s coming over on Friday for Ebook Week, and since it’s my favorite of her books, you should totally remember to come by and give her some love.)

6. One romance book you wish you could alter the ending of. Dark Hunger by Sara Reinke.

7. One romance book you are currently reading. Gobsmacked by LB Gregg. Who is coming over tomorrow.

8. One romance book you have meant to read. Just one? The Raven Prince by Elizabeth Hoyt has been on my TBR forever.

9. One romance book that changed you or your views in some way. Sarah McCarty’s “Promises Linger” was probably what made me realize what potential there was in westerns and erotic romance.

10. One romance book made into a movie that you liked both the book & the movie. Erm… I don’t think I can answer this one because I can’t think of any romance books I’ve even read that have been made into movies.

  1. Oh man, I think I read Wild At Heart a loooong time ago.

    I think I could answer half of those questions with the same book: Mr. Perfect. Made me laugh, made me cry, made me jealous of Linda Howard’s mas writing skills. :)

  2. Really? You wish you had written Crossing Swords? REALLY!!?

    I’m honored, Shannon. And totally jazzed. :)

    I don’t read a lot of romance novels, unless of course there is a lot of adventure involved. For instance I am currently reading Ginger Blymyer’s latest book “Flying into the Sun.” The way this author writes is amazing- very detailed in the way she describes all of the different cities and countries the characters visit- so full of adventure.

  5. thanks for the comments on my book. You are feeling what I hoped my readers would feel and enjoy in the book. There are many facets and each person is attracted to what appeals to them.
    Have you read my other book?
    Hairdresser to the Stars, a Hollywood Memoir. It is about my life behind the scenes in Hollywood as a film hairdresser. Enjoy
