I think a lot of people read to get away from it all. It's good mental therapy--at least it is for me.<br /> <br /> Jen :satisfied: Thanks, Kim. I think a lot of people read to get away from it all.

A woman told me the other day that she didn't read Romances because they weren't 'real'. Hell lady, I wanted to say, very little fiction is 'real', but at least with our genre, we try lift you up and make you sigh with happiness, even if it is for a little while.<br /> <br /> (Oh yeah, I clicked her from Romancing the Blog :blush: Here's a *HUG* from a stranger in the hopes your day gets better) That’s why I think Romance is one of the most underestimated genres in the world.

Well said. I live *real* every day with an aging mother who needs heart surgery, bills to be paid, deadlines, an endless to do list with finite hours in the day, and local and global news that wearies my heart. You better believe I'm looking for a break from my daily *real* when I pick up a book...or sit down to write one. :rolleyes: Right on, Natasha. Well said.
