I know that it is the most asked questions, and in my experience one of the hardest to answer. I would like to hear what everyone has to say? I really am not sure I can pinpoint one general book. I do, however, favor a few series above all others. I prefer to read Paranormal Romance. I find its mentally stimulating! Just adds to imaginative details.....

I like all kinds of romance - paranormal, contemporary, historical, steampunk, romantic suspense. I'm not picky if the story is good!

Hi, I'm Darkkin and I'm a historical romance junkie...(Third generation, it's a genetic affliction...

Arabella by Georgette Heyer is by far and away my favorite book of all time.

Hi Darkkin, I was strictly a historical romance junkie (although I did read mystery and thrillers too, but preferred romance) too but then one day my hubby brought home a paranormal romance by Amanda Quick
Second Sight (Arcane Society Series #1)
and I looked at it and thought paranormal eew (sigh) but I read it and loved it. Now I read books from all genres and It's been wonderful. ![]()

I have read some paranormal romance and they were ok. I guess I haven't found any that really kept me wanting more. I tend to stick to historical romance which I so love!

Hi, I'm Lindsey,
I agree with Becky aswell... As long as its good I am a fan... You just have to find the right book in another genre and then you get hooked.
I really wasnt in to Suspence/Action but then I read these books from Andy McDermott and he is a great writer!!!!
If you want to try a really good nonhistorical romance novel try Victoria Dahl, shes awesome!!!!!!!

If you guys like Historical Romance, you will love Julie Klassen. I found her by accident. Every Friday, on your Nook they give you a free book. I downloaded her book. I loved it. So I bought her other books. She has only written 4 books. They are Lady Of Milkweed Manor, The Apothecary's Daughter, The Silent Governess And The Girl In The Gatehouse. A great read. Hope you enjoy as much as I did.![]()

The Apothecary's Daughter was my first book I read when I got my Nook (that was just recently). I'll definitely get the others. I agree, she is a very good read. I didn't know you could get a free book every Friday. Just starting with the Nook so I have lots to learn.

Whitney, My Love by Judith McNaught. I read this book many years ago and I LOVED it. I still count it as my favorite romance novel.

I read November of the Heart by Lavyrle Spencer when I was 16 and it's still probably one of if not my favorite romance novel. We already had the book in my home and I just grabbed it off the shelf one day. I read it straight through. I still go back and read certain chapters. It's amazing.
I love The Gift by Julie Garwood also.
