Traci Alot of my favorite books, regardless of genre, have one thing in common. What has become known as a "bromance". Anyone have any to recommend? I'm open to any genre.

Al Giordino and Dirk Pitt, Clive Cussler's Dirk Pit series.

Monk and Gray, James Rollins Sigma Force.

Traci Both are on my wishlist, but good to know. Thanks Hugh.

Traci I think I'm reading Sandstorm after I finish my current nook book.

Yes, Sandstorm is good if you want a little Nookie.

(:{)>) I'm sorry. I'll try not to do that again.

Traci .....yeah, please don't. :)

You should. I'm reading it now and very entertaining. No nookie yet!

I promised not to go there again, about the Nookie comment. Right Traci?

I love that entire series.

When is it a "Bromance" and when is it just a friendship?


message 12: by Traci (new)

Traci When it's a little too close for comfort. Lol.
Closer than friends, brothers, and yes even girlfriends (although not a sexual relationship itself)
Think Joey and Chandler from Friends.

Traci Alas poor Yorick. I knew him Horatio...

Also Butch & Sundance

Holmes & Watson

Brutus and Casius?

Romeo and Merkitio ("By the morrow I shall be a grave man.")

Or more seriously, there was a Bromance in The Chancellor Manuscript(Ludlum) ... help me think of their names. Navy Officer and the main dude himself. (I hated it when I get a brain fart.)

We can add "Elvis Cole" and "Joe Pike" to this list I imagine.

It's very amusing to see them argue. And funny when they get on the same page.
