"What?! But they're so interesting! I LOVE romance novels!" That, or similar, is usually the response when I express my distaste for this particular book genre. Apparently, I'm in the minority on this opinion. Romance novels, or books with a strong romantic slant, rank as some of the best-sellers nation-wide. So why do I refuse to read books which thousands hail as masterpieces? Before I give you my top three reasons, it must be noted that I haven't read all romance novels. There may be a few novels which are clean and pure. My observations are based on the genre in general.
