Everything I Know about Love I Learned from Romance Novels ReviewI have been reading Sarah Wendell's blog, Smart Bitches Trashy Books, for several years. When I'm not reading, I'm writing. After all, romance novels are easy to write, according to those who malign them. Interestingly enough, producing a memorable, publishable, and re-readable manuscript is not a simple undertaking. EIKAL addresses the fact romance is the only fiction genre written by women, for women. Our books reflect our lives, whether they are set in medieval Scotland, or the neighborhood Starbucks, fifteen minutes ago. Our subject is the never-ending thrill of falling in love.
Sarah demonstrates throughout EIKAL that while some plots may be a bit far-fetched (shooting the object of one's affections, for instance, won't get you a Saturday night date,) the authors in question continue to bring real-life sensibilities into their work. We don't want the guy on the front cover, despite his six-pack and lush, flowing hair. We want the guy who sits in an oncologist's waiting room, holding his wife's purse while she undergoes chemo. We want to know that, at the end of the story, he'll still be holding her hand. We muse on our own relationship issues through the obstacles thrown in the path of the couple the author writes about. Plus, we're entertained. All this, and a happy ending, too.
Sarah uses some great real-life examples to illustrate her points. Mostly, EIKAL is a celebration of those of us who read and write romance. It's funny, it's thoughtful, and it might make the mockers and naysayers think twice. (While you're thinking twice, might I suggest picking up a copy of Jennifer Crusie's Bet Me? You'll thank me later.)
And, yes, Loretta Chase does know everything.
Congratulations, Sarah, on another great book.Everything I Know about Love I Learned from Romance Novels Overview
