We all know that I don’t have a heart, so I don’t usually enjoy romance books. But I really enjoy these romance novels! What are your favourite romance books?
I tried the Tessa Dare today and it was not for me. So back to my thrillers, general and historical fiction and biographies. Romance books are not for me!
Pride and Prejudice is one of my favorites too. Based off of your other books that you have said you enjoyed, I think you might be with me in liking Elizabeth Gaskill's "North and South" even better. She discusses industrialization vs peerage in England in the 1800's while also introducing a love story. It is a fantastic book and one I highly recommend to anyone, especially if they only enjoy a little romance in their novels.
I need this video because I cannot find any romance novel that I enjoy. One Day in December sounds intriguing! Memoirs of a Geisha is such a good book, I guess I didn't classify this as a romance but that might be my favorite romance novel. The romance in Pride and Prejudice is probably the best I have ever came across in a book. The movie is so good too 🙂
Sweet April, I’m with you on all these romancey books. Great storylines that INCLUDE romance I think is the best description. Witty banter, smart writing, yes please. I think I enjoy romance books a bit more than you, but I will say with covid the last year, what a great escape! You know there will be some kind of happy ending, even if it’s not the ending you want. So no, you aren’t without a heart…you just have discerning taste!
I remember that I really wanted to read the Memoirs of a Geisha after watching the movie. But I somehow forgot about it.. Thanks for reminding me, now I will write it down🌙
I quite like Romance books, but nothing too slushy. Two contemporary books I think you might enjoy are The Flatshare which is funny, very cute and has hugely likable characters. Another I read last year is The Rosie Project- again very sweet and looking at romance and autism. I found it really interesting and loved the characters.
I'm not a fan of romance either. I may just have to look into some of these books! Bridget Jones is on my PopSugar challenge so I will for sure be reading that one.
thank you for your recommendations, I'm always searching for romance that isn't too cheesy. I just feel like most of popular romance books are ridiculous 😆

The End of the Affair by Graham Greene is one of my favourite romances and I think you would like it.

Absolutely loved one day in December! Everything else I've tried doesn't compare so I've given up on romance

I thought that The Kiss Quotient was good. More steamy than I expected, but I loved the story.

This makes me laugh because you are probably one of the biggest hopeless romantics I know. In the best way ever!
Great segment! One day in December is in my list now!

Romances are definitely not my thing, but Pride and Prejudice is so good! I watch the movie version and the BBC series at least once a year.
