The difference is nothing!!!! Romance novels are a form of literature. Just because you may not like that particular genre doesn’t make it any less a form of literature. So… if you go to a book app and you search for “literature”, guess what??? YOU’RE LOOKING FOR ALL FORMS OF LITERATURE!!! And while I’m at it, I’m tired of people always talking shit about romances. I mean, come on! I feel like there are these groups of people who seem to think that they have to denounce romances so it makes them more of a serious reader. It doesn’t. It just makes you judgmental. I love to read. I love science fiction, I love fantasy, and I love romances. I enjoy the feel good endings, especially right now when the world is so damned fucked up. So if you think I’m not good enough because I read romances, then too damned bad. I’m gonna read them and I’m going to enjoy them. And I’m not the only one. There’s a reason it’s such a popular genre.

In honor of women's day, I would like to start a discussion. So many amazing #Authors over the years come to mind, but one of my favorite #femalewriters that comes to mind immediately is #AgathaChristie. She shaped my childhood in ways I cannot express. I spent so many days cuddled in my mother's bed while we either watched #murdermysterytheater I'm #pbs or read one of my mother's favorite stories. So I ask you all, who is your favorite female author and why? If Agatha Christie is your gal, what's your favorite story? I love #Poirot #readersunited #reading #mystery #murder #womensday #readersofinstagram #ramreading (at Fort Wayne, Indiana)

I guess #Amazon didn't have a smaller box than this... My book looks so little in that box! Lol #amreadingilonaandrews #readersunited #fantasyreaders #steelsedge #edgeseries (at Fort Wayne, Indiana)

Dear Readers, Just ahead of World War II, there was a radical invention that shook the foundations of book publishing. It was the paperback book. This was a time when movie tickets cost 10 or 20 cents, and books cost $2.50. The new paperback cost 25 cents — it was ten times cheaper. Readers loved the paperback and millions of copies were sold in just the first year.With it being so inexpensive and with so many more people able to afford to buy and read books, you would think the literary establishment of the day would have celebrated the invention of the paperback, yes? Nope. Instead, they dug in and circled the wagons. They believed low cost paperbacks would destroy literary culture and harm the industry (not to mention their own bank accounts). Many bookstores refused to stock them, and the early paperback publishers had to use unconventional methods of distribution — places like newsstands and drugstores. The famous author George Orwell came out publicly and said about the new paperback format, if “publishers had any sense, they would combine against them and suppress them.” Yes, George Orwell was suggesting collusion.Well… history doesn’t repeat itself, but it does rhyme.
