I usually read about 3-4 books per week. Most of those are historical romance novels, and most of those are set in the Regency period. I also love certain paranormal and/or vampire novels. I love when an author does a Historical Romance Vampire novel!! Can’t beat that!
I’ve been keeping track of my books, rating them and occasionally reviewing them on Goodreads.com. I made a page today with a widget that shows my recent activity on Goodreads! You can see it on the “Books, Books, Books” Page.
Some of my favorite authors are Julia Quinn (love the Brigertons!!), Eloisa James, Teresa Medieros, Lynsay Sands, Jo Beverly.. ack.. too many to keep track of. Those authors and a few more are in my “keeper” list.. I buy hard copies of their books and save them. A few years ago I had to cut down on my “keeper” authors because I don’t have enough space to save so many books. It was very very hard to give up some of those books.
I usually bring my “non-keeper” books to a used book store. My store of choice right now is “The Last Word” in the University Area of Charlotte. With the purchase of my first ereader.. I find I have fewer books to bring to them since I now buy most of my “non-keeper” authors in an ebook version.
My dream right now is to turn one of our unused bedrooms in to a “library”.. just need to buy the bookshelves!
