Bad Porn Theatre
Oct. 8th, 2004 12:59 amBecause I hate love you all so much...
I checked out some romance novels from the library. No, my dears, it was not to think of you clutching me while my petite bosom heaved, but it was to share with you the Bad Porn.
I've also discovered where the Suethors get their ideas from. Thank you, Nora Roberts. Your sucky writing has paved the way for the sucky writing of millions more. I hope they feel very disillusioned.
We begin with an anthology of four novellas that all have SOMETHING to do with fairies or magic or somesuch like that. All but one take place in Europe. I've also noticed an annoying trend of romance novelists to write novels about the Scottish highlands and the clansmen. It's nice they get the attention, but apparently all these women have watched Highlander a bit too much. Many of them have also NEVER BEEN TO SCOTLAND.
In Dreams - Nora Roberts
"Drawn to a castle in the forests of Ireland, a beautiful young woman becomes the link to a stranger's past - and the curse that has trapped him forever in the eternity of his own dreams."
( No, she thought, she didn't want to see herself reflected in a mirror. She wanted to see herself reflected in Flynn's eyes. )
The Sorceror's Daughter - Jill Gregory
"The fate of a captive wizard depends on his lovely daughter - and the intentions of a spellcast adventurer who dreams of a priceless trasure and a love that could be the greatest reward of all..."
( Before, she had been cold, but now she was hot. )
