I am so old school. Scifi Romance began in the 30s with Edgar Rice Buroughs John Carter of Mars, Tarzan or the Apes, Carson of Venues etc. However the books I really read are the old classics Dickens, Hugo, Conrad, Hemingway. Dracaula, Carmilla. The modern series books I refuse to read. Ecept for Sookie O baby. LOL
