And yes, I have all of my favorites! Some of them are already so hard to find. The most expensive title I bought was California Girl by Janet Quin-Harkin for P500. But sometimes, I trip by good-condition copies at BookSale. Maybe I'll post a pic of the collection sometime. ;)<br /><br />@Mina: Moniquehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14672566802842750613noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2787784959453532541.post-5918711434939456102011-08-14T23:32:45.495+08:002011-08-14T23:32:45.495+08:00Hi, Mina!

Most of my favorites are written by females. :) Forgot to mention in my earlier comment that I've been looking for Wrong Way Romance in used bookstores ever since you mentioned that it's a favorite.Chachichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10216391673830772231noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2787784959453532541.post-10393504469641997152011-08-13T11:05:22.420+08:002011-08-13T11:05:22.420+08:00@Mina

Otherwise, you might get fed up with one genre then a reading slump occurs. I think you already know that I'm a fan of contemporary reads? Especially when there's romance in them. :)Chachichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10216391673830772231noreply@blogger.com
