![]() ![]() ![]() Books like The Time Traveler's Wife, Memoirs of a Geisha and all of Jane Austen may be considered by some to be "romance" but they do not follow that formula that I dislike, so I prefer to refer to them as "romantic" books instead? The romance is not the be all and end all of the plot. Like putting on a comfortable pair of shoes and walking around in them for a while.Īnyone who knows me, knows that I do not care for romance, but I mean the formulaic romance that does check all the required boxes. I do like some of the crime fiction genre (more than some actually lol) where the same detective is solving the cases because I do enjoy the plots but more that I also love the characters and spending time with them and seeing how they develop. In her NPR interview she is clear that she doesn’t base her novels on facts of the crime, just the crime itself. Here’s everything we know about the upcoming series. The author is also set to executive produce the project. I do read quite a bit of it because I want something to happen in my books, I need plot for the most part. In her newest, Lady in the Lake, Lippman, who always writes novels inspired by true crime, bases her story on two murders that happened in Baltimore in the 1960’s. Lady in the Lake is an adaptation of Laura Lippman’s novel of the same name. Interesting what you say about genre fiction. Hmm interesting, I might check it out and see what other reviewers say. ![]()
