Follow Friday—10


Question:
Define what characteristics your favorite books share. Do they all have a kickass heroine or is the hot love interest the Alpha Male?

Answer:
I basically will read ANYTHING with a good romance story in it. I don't know why, but I think it's because I like the feeling of getting giddy with excitement and wanting to swoon over the love interests and wishing that I were the heroine so I could get a chance with that love interest. Trust me, I've playing pretend like that more than necessary. ;)

    Hahaha I'm the same way! I fall hard for guys in books and get really envious of the main girl. Why can't you find a guy like that in real life?!

    I'm pretty sure most people love romance! But not the mushy gushy kind. The kind with actual meaning to it!

    I need romance in my books too, even if it's only a hint. Like you say, it gives you something to get all giddy over and keeps you turning those pages.

    A swoon worthy romance can only help a book! I hate it when a romance is fleeting and characters seemed forced to love each other for the sake of the story!

    Every once in a while I just want a good romance book with nothing more. Most of the time I just enjoy a little romance, the courting is the best.

    Romance is a great aspect of a book, the only other thing for me is a good plotline! :)
