Perhaps that is why life is so much, well, more believable, at least most of the time. :) <br /><br />Enjoy!<br />TBQThe_Book_Queenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08530088066451745366noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7939166006008003649.post-66083787040363570152012-02-24T14:22:57.270-06:002012-02-24T14:22:57.270-06:00Thank you so much for having me on the blog today!...Thank you so much for having me on the blog today! It was a lot of fun :) For anyone wanting to check out the One Powerful Addiction website, unfortunately I'm having a little problem with the domain name right now, but you can still reach the site by going to http://onepowerfuladdiction.blogspot.com! The domain name should be working again at the beginning of March :)<br /><br />And thank you for weighing in, Book Queen! You know, I love to escape into my books, too, but lately I've become more aware of just how fantastical some of those books are. For example, my boyfriend was reading a popular YA book with a strong romantic element to it the other day that I LOVE and he was enjoying it, too ... until he finished it. I asked him what was wrong with it and he said he liked the story, but he hated the hero of the story. "He was just too unrealistic," my boyfriend said. "All he ever did was focus on her. He never had a life of his own. I just wish he'd had a little more depth to his character."<br /><br />And that really opened my eyes! Maybe in seeking out our own idea of the "perfect" relationship through our stories, we are making our characters out to be flat and dull?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16591397278330331294noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7939166006008003649.post-82834310649701144912012-02-24T11:33:07.025-06:002012-02-24T11:33:07.025-06:00Great post, very interesting topic.
I'm stil...Great post, very interesting topic. <br /><br />I'm still a lover of the romances, but I appreciate a good erotica now and then, even the ones that don't end with a HEA for the couple. It's true--what read in our romances (and erotica novels at times) are not very realistic of the real world. But then again, that's one of the main reasons I turn to them. My life isn't very interesting, there isn't a Prince Charming waiting for me at home, but that's okay, because I can turn to my favorite books and live vicariously through them.<br /><br />Would I rather have the Prince Charming at home and the exciting life? Hell yeah! But until that time, books are a *fairly* good substitute. :)<br /><br />Enjoy!<br />The_Book_Queen<br /><a href="http://tbqspersonalbookpalace.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">TBQ's Book Palace</a>The_Book_Queenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08530088066451745366noreply@blogger.com
