We love to chat about romance novels, humorous book passages (whether intentional or cringe-worthy purple prose), steamy love scenes, available freebie and cheapie novels, crazy cover art, questions about possible TBR books, and anything and everything in between. We give and receive tons of great recommendations and hope you'll share your favorites here, too. All subgenres and heat levels are welcome, but HEAs are pretty much mandatory. ;) Please note that our group is for readers of romance. Active users who are also authors who want to promote their books may post their promo in the specific author thread only.

[close] [ only one girl can win the crown ] The Selection is a competition that’s been part of royal history since forever. Basically, there are thirty-five girls who are called the Selected. They compete for the Crowned Prince’s hand in marriage, and they also compete to become the Princess of Illéa. All of the Selected must be single and of the ages 16-21. They are sent to sent and fill out an application that will be returned to the State Providence Office, of their providence, with a picture of themselves. Upon being Selected, they travel to Angeles to meet the man whose affections they will be competing for during their entire stay at the palace. These thirty-five girls get a chance of a lifetime. They have the opportunity to escape their old lives, and to start anew. To be swept up in a world of glittering crowns and priceless jewels.

[close] The focus of this group is historical fiction set in Ancient and Medieval eras(with some post Medieval), in any geographical location. Preference is given to themes of: engaging politics, sprawling battles, drugs(errr .. mead) and debauchery. If authors like Robyn Young, Bernard Cornwell, Steven Pressfield resonate with you, this group is designed for you. If you are bursting in your seams to discuss their books, please do come in. AUTHORS welcome as READERS ONLY. Limited opportunity for self promotion exists in A&M! No romantic melodrama books please. Want to gush about this great Victorian-era romance novel you've discovered and had been smitten with? Not the right group for you. We encourage freedom of opinion on books and authors in this group. As long as the opinion is respectful and harmless and breaks no Group rules. Don't feel you can't be honest about a book or author. No matter how popular the book or author is. Our Group Motto, courtesy of George S. Patton, is: If everybody is thinking alike, then somebody isn't thinking.
