Romance: Alive and Well on the Bestsellers List

>

• 11 out of the top 20 NYT bestsellers this week in paperback mass-market fiction are romances.
• 2 more are husband-wife detective teams, which IMHO could be considered to have romantic elements.
• And another 1 is a Janet Evonovich and Stephanie Plum, and we all know there’s always a little romance where Stephanie is concerned.

That’s 14 out of 20, people. Pretty nice odds, I’d say.
