![]() ![]() I’ve come to admire the way romance writers excel at plot and story. (My friend Leigh Kramer wrote a great post that I now think of as Romance 101: read it here.) And, according to the conventions of the genre, it must have a happy ending. If you like love stories, good news! The first category in this year’s Summer Reading Guide is “Wholly Unexpected Love Stories.” But a romance goes a step further, in that to meet the conventions of the genre, it must have a central love story. But a few savvy readers with great taste convinced me that a good book is a good book, good writing is good writing, and romance writers are some of the best writers out there.Ī romance novel isn’t just a love story. And it’s true the genre is (sadly) much maligned. ![]() I didn’t used to read romance, largely because I (wrongly) assumed serious readers didn’t. Readers, it’s been so much fun helping you fill up your summer TBRs with our Summer Reading Guide. ![]()
