Not only did my Goodreads link not come out, but I wrote that terrible sentence: "This group is dedicated to supporting clean secular romances of the type it sounds like you're looking for"...on a blog called "LDS Publisher" of all places! (Like I want her to know how sloppy I write when I'm not paying attention.)<br /><br />Anyway, just go to Goodreads, click on Groups, and type in "Clean Romances" and it should take you to our group.Joyce DiPastenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16638031103659265422noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25573541.post-5035161046705755232010-03-08T14:03:59.353-07:002010-03-08T14:03:59.353-07:00Wow!

The author of that blog is LDS and very honest. I haven't seen a review of hers yet that I disagreed with. She reviews LDS fiction and other fiction as well and then gives it a grade and tells you what it would be rated if it were a movie and why.Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10350990574222507082noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25573541.post-70582690245129804512010-03-05T08:14:02.916-07:002010-03-05T08:14:02.916-07:00Anon, try Sarah M.

I am really sick of picking up novels from the library and after less than a chapter putting them down because of what I view as inappropriate material. I am dying to read a good historical romance w/o all the garbage. I must admit I'm not really into the books that carry a Christian or LDS message. I just want a good escape not a lecture. Any recommendations out there?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
