Recently I discovered Betina Krahn (Just Say Yes)..historical romance but very good interpersonal relationship. Some people like Nora Roberts but I don't. And then there are Sandra Brown and Luanne Rice.<br /><br />I do read romances once in a while.gautami tripathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04192356825699543613noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5566869117228903343.post-5784057804706998752009-10-12T09:24:26.234-06:002009-10-12T09:24:26.234-06:00I have a lot of those books in my TBR pile!:) I&#...I have a lot of those books in my TBR pile!:) I'll have to think of some good books I have read lately...

It's got sword fights! Romance! Intrigue! Excellent writing! Other things that deserve exclamation marks!<br /><br />Here's my review if you wanna check it out: http://birdbrainbb.net/2009/10/03/review-freedom-necessity-by-steven-brust-and-emma-bull/<br /><br />:DAnastasia @ Here There Be Bookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07658910506808149668noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5566869117228903343.post-28357743579617102082009-10-11T20:27:59.602-06:002009-10-11T20:27:59.602-06:00The Riftwar Saga by Raymond E, Feist.

That was a good story. Another great vampire mystery that totally lives up to all your requirements is "Those Who Hunt the Night" by Barbara Hambly and its sequel "Travelling With the Dead".Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
