NPR Books is offering a list of “
100 Swoon-Worthy Romances,” including “
a printable list to take to your local library,” so there may be some romance readers browsing the stacks with list in hand. The list was created with the results of a poll asking NPR readers to tell about their favorite romances. Historicals seem extremely well represented on the list, but it includes books in Historical, Classics, YS, Suspense, Science Fiction & Fantasy, Paranormal, LGBTQ, Inspirational, Erotic, Contemporary, and Category areas. Some of the books are older, since participants were voting in the poll for their all-time favorites, but it might be a good collection development tool if your library would like to beef up its romance section.
