I'm a Sucker for a Good HEA...

I come across it all the time. Readers picking their favorite book. That one book that touched them more than any others theyā€™ve read.

My first thought was, man! Either Iā€™m the biggest mush, or those readers could not have possibly read as many books as I have.

As it is, the overwhelmingly majority of books I review, I rate FIVE STARS. The thought process behind my rating is, if I read a book from the first page, to the last page, then that book on GP, general principle, is a five-star book.

Iā€™m not one of those readers who struggle through reading books. I love to read, which is the whole pointā€¦ finding books to read that I thoroughly enjoy. Anything other, I leave aloneā€¦where I kind of stand with the whole Valentine thing.

Friendships, too, can be a truly beautiful thing. Like books, they are out there, and out there in abundanceā€¦ believe it or not. Some I come across by mere chance, and then there are those I read right, straight from the cover. Some are open books, and then there are others where I have to really keep my eyes, or how about mind, open. Of all these friendships however, just like books, there is one constant. All have touched me in a way I will forever respect and cherish, and not one is more valuable that another.

Now, while I canā€™t pick one book or friendship as the be all for me, we HOWEVER are talking a whole ā€˜nother ballgame if Iā€™m asked which booksā€¦or friendshipsā€¦ were the most romantic. As for romantic friendships, wellā€¦Iā€™m married, and have been for almost 30-years, so that answers that. As for the most romantic books Iā€™ve read to date, in that.. letā€™s sayā€¦ HEA fashion, as in Happily Ever After, two come RIGHT to mind!

MEMOIR: The Last Blind Date by Linda Yellinā€¦ & NOVEL: The Perfect Christmas by Debbie Macomber.

Now there! I did it. Happy Valentine.
