2,000 Harlequin Intrigue paperbacks, anyone?

(Canada news story): In case you'd like to add this to your grocery list this week, she's looking for anyone with interest in buying the whole set:

That's an impressive collection!

Too bad the article is so weird about romance with lines like "Golden is quick to point out that Harlequin Intrigue paperbacks aren't tawdry tales." and "Could Golden's vast collection represent a yearning for romance that's missing from her real life?"

>2 keristars: Grrr, that makes a (sexist) assumption (should reporters do that?) i know someone who reads two "romances" a day. She is very happily married and doesn't read them because she is missing romance in her life. She just likes the diversion between her work-from-home tasks.

I'm sure that people who read horror wish they had more mutilating monsters in their lives, and let's not talk about the people who read crime novels about serial killers ...

>4 anglemark: and when Im reading historical fiction, I'm frequently glad I didn't have to live there/then. Not exactly in the market for a time machine.
