I am more of a whole picture kind of thinker--at least I try to be before making decisions, so it fits that I like being able to do that in my reading too. I ejoy historical fiction quite a bit too. And romance is a re-discovery for me. I like the lost and found again romances best too. :-) I hope you enjoy The Notebook. It's the only one I've read by Sparks but I still think of it. Such a beautiful story.

You kind of look at the situation from different angles. Romance is among my fav genres and I like it because it's nice to see two people find each other and then eventually fall in love. Especially that lost then found again romance, where they never forget about each other. I'm currently reading 'The Notebook' and it's a sweet read. <br />I also enjoy the historical fiction, because history fascinates me and I love being swept away to another time and place. Especially if the story is based on real people and places. <br />Enjoy your weekend!

Quite a few readers of mysteries will tell you they don't like to guess who the culprit is--they like the surprise. I can't shut my brain off that way, I'm afraid. I think a lot of it, for me, has to do with the fact that I read a lot of crime fiction and the other is because of the work I do--and have done for the past 19 years. <br /><br />Thank you for visiting!Literary Felinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13079276242303738719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31552114.post-21219329279347680002016-06-09T09:01:11.960-07:002016-06-09T09:01:11.960-07:00Kathy - I hope The Paris Wife gets better for you....Kathy - I hope The Paris Wife gets better for you.
