I found I read contemporaries alot faster than historical. I've always read more historicals than anything. So this year was a big change for me and I loved it. I discovered Cozy Mysteries and Urban Fantasy and read very few harlequins. I was just so burned out on cookie cutter storylines coming out lately. So while taking a break I have been collecting ones from 70s to 90s so this coming year I will have plenty to choose from. |

I don't count Novellas unless it's a anthology. Books have to be 50,000 words or more to count. Last edited by Blossom; 12-19-2012 at 02:08 PM. |

I can't seem to find any deals or freebies but I am looking! This close to Christmas I expected more.
I wanted to let you Romance fans know there is several Audibles on sale today for members at $3.95 a piece! I spent alot today. Here's my post from the thread to see what I bought in case you need recommendations. |

Goodreads keeps track for me, too, but they aren't always matched up with my own shelf which I use to mark books read for 2012. I have marked 216 books, and goodreads says 226. My goal of 250 is not going to be met. Maybe I'll put 200 for 2013.

Heartland I watch on Youtube (Canadian show) is from books that are only paperback, meant for young adults. I am old adult, I love the story. The author is Lauren Brooke. Why oh why hasn't she made the book digital by now? I am still a young adult at heart.

Speaking of changes, for those who have a library of books purchased at Ellora's Cave, they have updated the website. I was missing a book and had to send an e-mail. Also had to re-do my password. You might want to check it out to make sure everything is ok with your account. Just a heads up, your personal info and card information will have to be redone for safety reasons.
Oh, and I found the freebie: Feather Down by Lorie O'Clare Auntykatkat |

I don't know. This thread is mostly Adult romances, rarely we have some young Adult romances. I really enjoyed Beautiful Disaster by Jamie McGuire, Easy by Tammara Webber and Perfect Chemistry by Simone Elkeles this year. I got the Audibles and they were great!

However, I've heard that the books are significantly different from the TV show. But they'll probably eventually make it to e-editions. Perhaps if you wrote to the publisher? |
