Weekly Geeks 2010-6: Romancing the Tome

In honor of Valentine's weekend, let's talk about romantic literature. By that, I don't necessarily mean the modern romance genre, but books that you find particularly romantic.

Feel free to explore any or all of these prompts:

  • What literary couple is your favorite?
  • How do you define romantic literature? Does it always involve sex? or the hint of sex?
  • What author/s do you think writes romantic scenes particularly well?
  • Do you have a favorite romantic scene in a book?
  • Do you find you read romantic literature at certain times of the year?
  • Tell us your favorite romantic quote.
  • Do you have some favorite romantic poetry?
Share any other thoughts you have about books and romance or love or eroticism.

And beyond books: If you celebrate Valentine's Day, what's your favorite way to do it? A romantic dinner? Chocolate? Do you send cards to people you love?

What ever way you do - or don't - celebrate, have a wonderful week! Be sure to link directly to your blog post below in Mr. Linky, and leave Valentines for your fellow WG bloggers.

TIME, weekend, and more:
