The jibes seem intended less to enhance the review than to convince the reader that the reviewer is too smart to enjoy romance books.<br /><br />: )Jill Sorensonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13780655429244358019noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3414093212095906246.post-9915475385486680702010-01-04T20:14:11.984-06:002010-01-04T20:14:11.984-06:00Orannia: Yes, isn't that the problem?

Merdith Duran's writing is so ...Great post, CJ!<br />Merdith Duran's writing is so transportive, that I felt so connected with both Lydia and Sanburne's emotional journeys.<br /><br />Sigh. PW's review is so transparently patronizing about romance. <i>gasp!</i> Window dressing to make a romance <i>seem</i> intelligently written.

At RWA, I handed my seriously tattered-from-being-carried-in-my-work-bag copy of Bound by Your Touch to Meredith and said, "Please don't hate me because of the state of this book, but would you please sign it for me?" She was lovely and gracious, and signed it "To Kati, from another spine cracker." Heh!<br /><br />Anyhoo...on to Sanbourne. I love the scene where he crashes his father's dinner party and is behaving so badly just to needle the hell out of his dear old Dad. I love that Duran has this wonderful, extremely light touch with humor. This book was a sublime reading experience.Katihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08178354927628992485noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3414093212095906246.post-79488314179098977142010-01-04T10:05:16.896-06:002010-01-04T10:05:16.896-06:00Oh dear, another author I want to read but can'...Oh dear, another author I want to read but can't until the TBR is under control..
