Can't get away from the YA books even though I've been an adult a long longer than I was ever a YA!

I love romance novels! - new adult, historical, chick lit, YA, paranormal, sci-fi, contemporary, fantasy, mystery - most anything with romantic elements!

I really enjoy legal thrillers that include courtroom action. Having been a lawyer, I am fascinated by how some authors can capture the tension and pressure of the trial. Unfortunately, there are many authors who do not stay close to actual procedures. It may be that cutting the corners appears a quick way to get to the end, but the realism is the sizzle.

hello all,

i like to read a lot of different genre, well except for sci fi fantasy, i just never could get into those books. but mostly right now im into alot of mystery cozy mystery, thrillers. Oh and i love YA, i haven't read a good one in a while , ok i started the book thief but my 10 year old kinda stole it from me. and i just finished Dorothy must die. i think that my next book might have to be a mystery or i might read to kill a mockingbird.
