I would have. I can't wait to see everyone's posts from RWA, it's going to be great, I'm sure.<br /><br />As for your poll, I'm partial for contemporaries so I voted for the contemps! I read most everything (though I haven't touched a paranormal in a long while) but for the most part, I prefer to read contemporaries smexy heroes. =)Rowenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15472559027348735571noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10897259.post-28726724594923099182009-07-05T04:00:54.898-04:002009-07-05T04:00:54.898-04:00I broke my personal moratorium on book buying last...I broke my personal moratorium on book buying last week, too.

I'm in the middle of BfF, and I have the Loretta Chase and the new Julia Quinn and MJP waiting, plus two others. Then I did a drive-by at half-price books this afternoon and picked up two Karen Marie Monings (my first ones!), one of Alexis Morgan's Darkness series, and a Nora Roberts that I think I missed (it was a buck, so sue me...)<br /><br />Looks like I'm stocked for the next few weeks....Nicola O.https://www.blogger.com/profile/13947359287796827837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10897259.post-72893019829354034202009-07-05T02:57:36.672-04:002009-07-05T02:57:36.672-04:00Well...if you have a gift certificate then technic...Well...if you have a gift certificate then technically (that being the operative word *grin*) you aren't buying any books, so I say go for it!<br /><br />And I'm currently reading Branded By Fire and it's gooooood!oranniahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14007355589161084262noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10897259.post-69335939629384388712009-07-05T01:46:21.549-04:002009-07-05T01:46:21.549-04:00Right On Cindy!!

Thing is, paranormal has to be done right and there are few authors who can really pull it off. It's interesting to see though that paranormals are running neck and neck with historicals. I hear a lot of moaning about the glut of paranormals in the market place. I'm not happy about it either - I want writers who want to write paranormal romance to write them - not authors just trying to cash in or find a niche.<br /><br />CindySCindyShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18349459903336460467noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10897259.post-56770256387837302222009-07-04T17:51:26.572-04:002009-07-04T17:51:26.572-04:00I've read Touched By Light (My first by the au...I've read Touched By Light (My first by the author) and loved it, so I say go for it! *G*<br />My favorite genre right now?

But I love Sarah McCarty's books & will read Sam's Creed the next time I'm in a historical mood. Same with Paranornals - once I'm in the mood I'll read a slew of them.Mary Ghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09470057739043473942noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10897259.post-73906022801819643492009-07-04T14:29:35.063-04:002009-07-04T14:29:35.063-04:00You only get one guess on the genre I voted for. ...You only get one guess on the genre I voted for.

I still read historicals but I also buy a lot of contemporaries and some romantic suspense. I'm not really a paranormal fan but I love Patricia Briggs and most of J.R. Ward's books.SarahThttp://www.monkeybearreviews.com/noreply@blogger.com
