Kristine’s Books Ok, I've been having the contemporary romance bug these past few days. I don't really know why, maybe its the February air, but I need help!

I need recommendations on any romantic books. No sad endings please, I don't mind if there are some sad parts in the book, but ultimately I want a Disney ending.

It would also be really cool if the story is set in one day. Yea I know, I'm being weird. I'm just having weird book cravings like Nick & Norah's Infinite Playlist or Graffiti Moon or Let It Snow.

Those three are actually the only contemporary romance books I've read (that I could remember). Yea, romance is really not my genre. So please, please help!

Have you read Dash & Lily's Book of Dares Dash & Lily's Book of Dares by Rachel Cohn ? You might like that if you liked Nick & Norah. My current favorite YA romance author is Rainbow Rowell - loved Eleanor & Park and Fan Girl.

and Famous in Love (Famous in Love, #1) by Rebecca Serle Reading it right now,loving it.


Kristine’s Books I haven't read any of these books that you recommended, except for Dash & Lily's Book of Dares.

Romance is really not my genre of choice. I can literally count those I've read with my fingers and I would still have fingers left over.

ILyk Tourid (annvalane) Haven't read many contemporary romance, but I do remember one that happens in 24 hours The Statistical Probability of Love at First Sight The Statistical Probability of Love at First Sight by Jennifer E. Smith . I remember loving the character arc in that, coping with anger with divorced parents and that sadness is all relative. Enjoy it if you find time to read it.
