Debbie Macomber is my solution
for romance novels. Typically, I would be ashamed of being caught reading one
simply because society has declared that women who read romance novels inadvertently commits a sin of sorts. Unfortunately, sometimes society is right. Such novels create the kind of
relationship illusions that would lead to a woman living in a delusional world.
A world where all men are tall, dark and handsome and no matter what, there will be a happy ending that involves a big wedding and some whisking away into the sunset. There very likely will also be a six pack, ruggedness and a wild black horse involved too!In the world of romance novels, breakups only exist until the one party quickly comes to their senses and discovers that the other party was their soul mate and they could not possibly live without them. If this was reality, the world would be a sorry place in deed. Breakups are a necessary part of life and many times provide an unexpected escape from a life with someone totally unsuited for the other party.
Debbie’s novels are not devoid of
such delusions entirely. I find that the levels of delusion are a little less
deeper than in most romance novels. When I find myself in need of being rescued
from the depths of relationships pessimism….a Debbie Macomber is the perfect
rescue indeed.This book does not deviate from the typical structure of her other books. Debbie has the wonderful ability to intertwine many stories into one, yet still leaving the reader with a feeling of one overall story. I love that and would definitely encourage other readers who are not too averse to the world of romance to buy her books. So there you are...another from Debbie Macomber on my growing list!
