Weekly Book Chat {Love Love Love}

From TGIF Reads
Q. Love Stories: What are some of your favorite fictional love stories?

Honestly, I don't really have a favorite romance book, but I have a favorite type - and that's the "cheesy" - man meets woman, man doesn't want to love and is enraged by that damn headstrong yet tantalizing woman; but man can't help himself and he and said woman fall in love. Yes - those stories get me EVERY single time. I have no clue why - I'm not even a romantic which explains why I don't read these types of books very often - but when I'm in the mood for a light book that will make me smile, that's what I'll reach for.

Other Bookish Stuff Seen Recently

What's So Amazing About Those Audiobooks, Anyway?. I've tried reading audiobooks before - starting with the classics - and quickly became disillusioned. But recently, I started again, this time with books that move at a much faster pace and I'm totally HOOKED! It's made doing the laundry, folding clothes and all other household chores more tolerable.

Judgy McJudgerson. I have experienced a raised eyebrow or 2 based on the book I'm currently reading, but I LOVE being able to discuss books with my step-son because I've read a few of the books that he likes - that's a feeling I wouldn't trade for anything.

I do love the cheesy, stereotypical love story! They are great for a quick weekend escape - and I'm not overly romantic either.


Stop by and see my TGIF / Follow Friday for this week!

Totally! I also enjoy those types of books. Well, I like most romance books as long as they are well written.

I'm a huge romance fan and am quite the sucker for the types of stories you described as well.
