I like to know what I"m getting.If they're writing different I like to have a headsup so to speak. I have some authors I have to read the back closely on and still feel like I'm takinga chance because their work changed so much. |

I can give you a couple of them that drive me nuts...Catherine Coulter is one. I can't even describe it, the dialog just plain old stinks IMO. Iris Johansen is another one like that. It's their writing style that I don't like. Diana Palmer's writing is great, I just can't read too many in a row because they're all kinda alike. I love some authors because a lot of their books are different, Catherine Anderson, Susan Andersen, and Sandra Brown, just to name a few. So I guess you could say that I prefer it when a writer deviates from their norm, just as long as the writing style isn't unbearable:) |

Jennifer Crusies all have atleast one of these in common; Dove Ice cream bars, Cherries, Dogs, etc. There are more that they have in common but I am drawing a blank! LOL! I like a little similarity. but as far as the plot goes, I would rather not have the same exact storyline everytime. I love to read ...I will try just about anything but I have authors that I go to for comfort because I know what they have waiting for me. I am one big contradiction I guess!!! |

I have yet to read a Diana Palmer book where the heroine wasn't blonde or at least strawberry blonde. She's also usually a virgin well past the normal age for "deflowering" in the modern world. I have nothing against blondes, I am one. It just seems odd. |

With Nora Roberts, a house is always described as "pretty" even if a guy says it. "Do you see that pretty little house over there?" I don't think a guy would use the word "pretty" to describe a house. Other than that, though, she's my favourite author. |

While i do like some of Diana Palmer's books, do all of her Heroes have to be so dominating and borderline cruel sometimes? |

Catherine Coulter is fond of the brutish hero and "forced" seductions. |

Rachel Gibson has a lot of the following: Jeeps, tattooed heros (yum), & furry happy trails (double yum). |
