Reading romance takes me out of my own life and lets me live thorugh another's eyes for a little while. I love being able to go to other places and see things that I wouldn't have seen if I hadn't read a book. Oh and let's not forget those hot sexy love scenes!
I would keep the books and read then when I could. I have three bookshelves full of books and when I got some of them they were older and used. But I did finally get around to reading most of them and I was really glad I kept them. I found some really great authors that way.
I loved the MacGregor Family from Nora Roberts and would love to see more in that series. Diana Palmer also has a series Long, Tall Texans that I would love to see more of what is happening with those characters.
I have about 100 books that I have yet to read and I go and get books from the library each week. So I usually just pick whatever book happens to be on top and read it.
