Those I skim over quite rapidly because I find them boring. Your sex scenes are fine with me. She also has some quite violent scenes which I skim over as well. Explicit sex and violence are not my cup of tea! <br />I like her books because of the focus on important events in Scottish and American history and her vivid characters. <br />I stopped watching the televised versions of her book because of all the sex and violence, too! I might watch them streaming because then I could fast forward. <br />Deana the QueenaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-764237570467034909.post-78484945739368221612016-08-20T20:34:12.416-04:002016-08-20T20:34:12.416-04:00At one point in my life, my grandparents took me t...At one point in my life, my grandparents took me to the library once a week and I would get stacks of books and read snatches of them as we passed under street lights.

I don't think my brain could handle it. <br /><br />Somehow typing that last paragraph reminds me of how much I loved going to the library during summer school holidays and being able to check out very heavy stacks of books that I would quickly read ... and then want to read more. xoFranceshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08352407314710067616noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-764237570467034909.post-58088375350354294952016-08-20T17:41:04.004-04:002016-08-20T17:41:04.004-04:00Bel Canto sat on my shelf for several years for so...Bel Canto sat on my shelf for several years for some reason. When I read it I immediately loved it and recommended it to many of my friends.<br /><br />Haven't looked specifically for racy bits since I was a teenager, sharing books at slumber parties. When we giggled and read aloud. And learned a lot of new words.NCmountainwomanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00615765649828716560noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-764237570467034909.post-49679476089223255882016-08-20T16:40:02.355-04:002016-08-20T16:40:02.355-04:00A writer must have a good memory . . .A writer must have a good memory . . .Vicki Lanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08114677510459055768noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-764237570467034909.post-67455364955606903532016-08-20T16:18:25.814-04:002016-08-20T16:18:25.814-04:00I wonder if writing a sex scene is only one short ...I wonder if writing a sex scene is only one short step away from taking notes during the act.
