Top Romances

All About Romance has released the results of its 2007 poll to find readers' Top 100 Romances evah. I meant to vote in this. Seeing as I've listed a good proportion of my keeper shelf on Shelfari, this would not have been too difficult or time consuming. I'm kinda bummed that I forgot.

So, my list would have only added to the 4,975 individual books voted for, but at least I would know I contributed and that the brilliant category romances from my list would have received a -- or another -- vote. Plus books by other personal favourites such as Ruth Wind/Barbara Samuel, Susan Carroll, Elizabeth Lowell, Candice Proctor, Susan Andersen, Maggie Osborne...I could go on. Won't. I didn't vote. No use whining.

Of the 100 books listed, I have read 47 and I would include 22 (less than half) in my personal best-ever list. One of those is Stephanie Lauren's Devil's Bride, my favourite from her Cynster series. Lovely, sexy, gorgeous book. If this poll had been released a week earlier, I could have toasted Stephanie at last week's book launch (see pic, where we're signing copies of Sizzle, Seduce & Simmer.)

Thrilled to see another ubertalented down-under author Nalini Singh listed with the first of her Psy series, Slave to Sensation. It is one of only a handful of paranormalswhich makes her appearance all the more meritorious. Congratulations, Nalini!

What do you think of the list? Any books you're thrilled to see listed?? Any you're shocked to see NOT listed???
