Gena Showalter | What If?

Do you ever wonder what your life would have been like if one thing in your past were different? Just a single thing? Like the movie Sliding Doors, what would your life be like if you’d missed the train home one day? Invariably that thought process always leads me to think about what my life would have been like if I hadn’t pilfered that first romance novel from my grandmother’s house. Silver Angel by Johanna Lindsey. That book changed my life. I remember staring down at it, intrigued by the cover – the heroine had long blonde hair, something this dark haired girl had always desired – thinking, Should or should I? I was about fourteen and if I got caught with it, I would have been in big trouble. But in the end, I did it. Snatched it up, and devoured it in a night. Read More...

Re: Gena Showalter | What If?

"WHAT IF" WOW thats a loaded question. I too have read and love to read since I was old enough to hold a book right side up. The first book I can remember reading that I hoped I wouldn't get caught with was "GONE WITH THE WIND". My parents would have skinned me alive if they knew I was reading it. I have read so many books that I have been forced to put a small dot on the back cover just to remind me I have already read it.

"WHAT IF". That is one I can vividly remember! It was "Valley of the Dolls" and my mom would have killed me if she had known. Of course I read it when the kids were asleep that I was babysitting so it took a long time to read. I'm just glad my aunt didn't do away with it before I got back over to her house to babysit. Books are my favorite thing! I'm never without a book.
