When I started, I was trying to be honest without being mean. <br />I'm just picky is all. I like reading a lot of YA 'cause even though they tackle adult issues now, they tend to tone down the 'graphic' scenes ... I have nothing against romance - I absolutely adore tension between characters and I love HEAs, what I hate is when a story is ONLY about how to get a couple in bed esp. when it's sold as a thriller or fantasy or paranormal etc..Banhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15450115293974960761noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6296662047559453906.post-70173050038587708712012-01-05T15:32:03.452-07:002012-01-05T15:32:03.452-07:00@Ban: I'm a nosy person, too, and now you REA...@Ban: I'm a nosy person, too, and now you REALLY have me interested in why people would bash you for your view on books.

I joined a Just for Fun Reading Challenge, and I'm surprised to see I have finished reading three books already this year. Maybe I read more than I thought last year, then. Good luck getting too 100!<br /><br />I have seen your sidebar and do look at it. To be honest, though, I don't look at those on too many blogs because it seems many don't keep it updated. I wind up looking at the same books for months. Since I know you keep yours updated, though, I'll take a look when I'm on your blog! I know you and I have very similar tastes.
