Written by four editors/contributors for *Romance Today: An A-to-Z Guide to Contemporary American Romance Writers*, this well-organized, annotated list of nearly a thousand "good reads" (with a dash of wit) will have many people adding to their "to-read" lists.

This may not be the best of the best for favorite selections, but there are quite a few books I haven't read yet, and it is a helpful guidepost for genres I am not necessarily familiar with. A good starting point for readers.

Not exactly what I had hoped. Weighted heavily with recent publications, I was disappointed in the lack of classics. Perhaps worth a revisit after I have read more of the older books on my list, but at this point, not what I seek for advice.

Pros: some classics organized into genera
Cons: actually a very bad list: obvious classical bad further choices
