My sister will be visiting me shortly, and I can guarantee that she will not bring a book to read. She will go through mine and say something to the effect, "Don't you have anything good to read?" What can I say, we have different tastes in ..... well, everything. Her idea of a good book is a steamy, lusty romance novel and no, they can never be too graphic for her. Nothing offends her - trust me, I have tried. She does NOT like supernatural or sci-fi genres. The women she likes to read about tend to be strong women fighting to overcome some seeming impossible odds. An example would be a woman about to lose the family farm when a studly ranchhand shows up and....well, you get the point. She doesn't really want to read about some party girl who is out to solely score. Thanks in advance, John

I don't read much in the way of romance books. Maybe try the Romance forum?

Oh my, we have the same sister!

I don't read that drivel either.
