Love to read romance novels? Come read and discuss some AWESOME romance novels with Romance Writers of America's 2010 Librarian of the Year.

Is there a book on the classics list you've always wanted to read? There's a reason they're on that list and it's not so high school English teachers can torture students, most of them are wonderful stories!
