August is Read a Romance Month

First observed in 2013, this month-long celebration urges readers to pick a novel to read from the romance genre. Romance novels represent human hopes and dreams; they feature men and women fighting for their best possible lives against difficult odds, and with the universal demand that they change for the better. ~ Chases Calendar of Events
