Good romance novels

Options
Some of my favorite books might be categorized as "Romance" but the genre is saturated with really bad books, so how can I find some good ones? Among those I liked are The Bridges of Madison Counry, several Anita Shreve & Nicholas Sparks novels, Somewhere in Time, plus Dancing at the Harvest Moon & Candles on Bay Street by K.C. McKinnon.

    Not big into romance novels but I have read a couple that are really good. Palomino by Danielle Steel is probably one of my favorites

    you should join this website called Goodreads.com it keeps track of the books you read then after reading them you rate them and the website generates a list of recommendations based on your too reads and rated books. I love it! you can link it to your facebook account, its super easy and convenient.

    I recently read the 50 Shades of Grey books and I absolutely loved them! They are a little corny, but really enjoyable!

    Katie Macalister and Nina Bangs are two paranormal romance writers that are pretty amazing. They are very funny. Katie does stuff all over the board not just paranormal but her dragon series is hilarious. (Jim the demon dog is a complete smartA$$)
