Do you enjoy it? Or do you think it is wasting time? Or is it a bad influence over young ones in the family? No body in my family approves. But I really enjoy them. I always like a happy ending. I know that reality is far from these stories. Today the real stories we read, hear, listen or watch is full of violence. Wouldn't it be a far change to read something with a happy ending?

I read and write historical romances. (Working on getting several accepted for publication this year.) I think there is nothing wrong with enjoying a good book, no matter what it's genre. Reading is a great form of relaxation and escape. Don't let what other's think deter you, if you really enjoy reading romance, there is nothing wrong with it. Who are your favorite authors?

When I was so young, I even subscribed to a magazine in my country where all the content talks about the love stories. lol Yeah, I love happy ending stories, fairy tales, and those kind of stuffs. But these days, not as much as when I was so young. The idea of happy ending is always cross in my head, though. It's a refreshing reading short love story.

I still enjoy reading romance/suspense,romance/thriller.Im picky of the author though.There is nothing wrong with reading this genre, u are the one reading it not them. Its a matter preference in my opinion.I agree most of these books makes us feel good and gives us hope that there is something more out there,something positive and pure.
