Up first is Emily Giffin, She is an amazing author. I love her story lines in the books. They don't always seem to be happy ones, but she makes them end beautifully, in my opinion. My favorite of hers has to be "Something Borrowed" and "Something Blue" they are both the same series, in fact Something Borrowed is going to be a movie coming out this May

Next up is Susan Andersen, now her books are a bit more...detailed we'll say, but she has gotten me hooked on romance stories, make fun all you want, but I love them and it's all because of these two books (Be My Baby and Baby I'm Yours), which I don't believe are a series, but they both got me hooked.
them. I probably wouldn't really recommend them because only people who really like the romance genre might actually like them and not a lot of people will admit they like those kinds of books.
Third is Christie Ridgeway. She's like Susan Andersen, another romance writer, another "detailed" one and another one that got me hooked really fast! I love her "knitting series," which is just about 3 sisters who live in this little town, I want to say it's in California, but I could be wrong. They are in a knitters club, but they are younger, and apparently they know how to make really pretty things with just knitting. Another author I wouldn't recommend unless you like the genre.
And last, but definitely not least, is Nicholas Sparks (collective groans need not be heard!) I absolutely LOVE his books, the movies definitely don't do the books justice! I can't tell you how mad I was at the supposed acting in "The Last Song." If you saw it and liked it, read the book, it is 20 times better, and that's not even an exaggeration! I would recommend any of his books, but I do have a couple favorites...

And then there's The Lucky One, which is also going to be a movie coming out in a couple years. I'm so excited, I'm a little nervous about the actors, but I'm going to keep an open mind about it. This one is about a returned soldier who had a picture of a girl he didn't know while overseas and believed it was his lucky charm so he decides to go on a big trip to find this woman when he knows NOTHING about her. It's romantic and awesome! Read it before it comes out.
So those are my favorites, love them all, could read them time and time again. Even made Larry read them and he couldn't complain too much! Hopefully someone found one to pique their interest :)
Until Day 20...
