    Know of a good book for me???

    I'm looking for a good romance book. I specially like western romance books but any romance books are fine.
    Just so you understand what type of books I'm looking for here is a list of romance books I've all ready read and enjoyed very much: Montana Sky by Nora Roberts, Redeeming Love by Francine Rivers, The Cowboy by Joan Johnston and Trilby by Diana Palmer.
    I would also enjoy a mystery romance book. Those are good too.

    If you're looking for a western that's also good literature, try "All The Pretty Horses" by Cormac McCarthy.

    Okay, it's not really romance, it's also one of the best books ever written, meaning it demands full attention, but I recommend Anna Karenina. You'll probably like it, and it's a book everyone should read anyway.
    Noću, u intimnom, poluglasnom razgovoru sa samim sobom, nikako ne mogu zapravo logički opravdati zašto se u posljednje vrijeme toliko uzrujavam zbog ljudske gluposti.

    The Twilight books were very romantic, and dangerous. I liked it.
    "I'm afriad to fall," she whispered.

    How about Man Who Whispered to Horses ( translation to english is probably bad, movie with Robert Redford was made by that story).
    Anna Karenina is great, but not very romantic in my opinion; except Levin and Kitty
    At thunder and tempest, At the world's coldheartedness,
    During times of heavy loss And when you're sad
    The greatest art on earth Is to seem uncomplicatedly gay.

    To get things clear, they have to firstly be very unclear. But if you get them too quickly, you probably got them wrong.
    If you need me urgent, send me a PM

    I'm not much into romance novels or westerns but Lonesome Dove by Larry McMurtry was pretty good (although pretty light on the romance).
