and Part Two - Favorite Books, Novels - the second part
About 6 years back, a random search led me to the historical romance novel genre. I read my first historical romance novel and have been reading many of them since that time.
WallFlower series by Lisa Kleypas - Lisa has been one of my favorite historical romance novel writers. I have read all her novels. I know she has written a few contemporary romance novels. I did read two of them and did not like them at all. The best of the wallflower series was "Devil in winter". No second-guesses in there. Absolutely loved it.
Julia Quinn - Second to Lisa in the historical romance genre, I liked Julia's Bridgeton series.
I have lost count of the number of historical romance novels I have read since the Wallflower series that were written by many other well-known authors. My mood turns pensive and Iam pulled into the world of the Victorian era. One has to read them to experience it.
Hunger Games novel series - This was a different genre and I was rushing to complete the whole series. I did watch the movies as well. It was nice and different. However, I guess, I do not have the patience to sit and read them a second time.
Twilight series - All I had known until I read the Twilight novel series was that vampires were bad. This novel series changed all my beliefs. I did watch the movie adaptations as well. It was different but not impressive.
Vampire Academy series - I think Richelle Mead had done a better job than Stephenie Meyer (who is the author of Twilight series). I really liked the Vampire Academy series. Although it was silly and stupid at a few places, it was better than the Twilight. I would not mind a second reading.
Memoirs of a Geisha - I don't remember how I got hold of this novel. This novel introduced me to the Japanese culture, the lives of the Geisha. It was entertaining and quite different from what I had read so far. I searched online and tried to find articles on the lifestyle and how these women live. Quite interesting.
