Second Chances...

Do you believe in 2nd chances? I guess I do because guess where I'm going tonight?

...

...

The LIBRARY!!!

Yep, I'm going to the library tonight. It's been what, a year since I last went... perhaps a bit longer? You've all heard me complain about the libraries in Quebec... and most of what I say is true. However, the good thing of this library is that they have some oldies that are hard to find and buy. So I'll be taking a chance tonight. I'm going to renew my card and see if their romance sections have improved. I've already used the online catalogue this morning and I have to say, I was a bit impressed... but at the same time, not.

I know that many of you have awesome libraries. I know that Ames and Kris do. Ames live in Canada and Kris, in the States... So let's play a game.... People, what are romance books that I should absolutely find in my library in order to say that they have a good romance section?

So far, I can tell you this:

Library has...

Nalini Singh's Psy-Changeling series, book 1 to 3 - that was a wowzer! I never expected them to have this series... However, there is no mention of Mine to Possess anywhere.
True Confessions by Rachel Gibson
Once in Every Life by Kristin Hannah

It doesn't have...

Any books by Lisa Kleypas except Mine till Midnight and Sugar Daddy
Meljean Brook, Maria V. Snyder, Colleen Gleason books

On order...

Sherrilyn Kenyon's Dark-Hunters series. So far, they only have Devil May Cry if I'm not wrong, which was the lastest.

Okay, keep in mind, the library was opened in January 2005. So it's been 3 years. It took 3 years for the library to start stocking up on the romance section... and what you'll find is mostly "new" releases, but not even the "hot" ones. Good or bad? Was I right to be disappointed in my library last year?
