Mills and Boon

It is 100yrs of Mills and Boon, have you ever read any. I won a book competition over 20yrs ago in a national newspaper and received a prize of a years supply of Mills and Boon, received 10 a month, I have never read one I prefer Biographies True Crime etc. I have held onto them just incase the might become valuable!!!

I read one when I was younger and then read it again dor the dirty bits. I've got a friend who is one the most well read people I know who loves them.

Personally I think I'd need a lobotomy before I could read this clap trap but then I'll read James Patterson or Dean Koonz (sp possibly) or owt like that for a bit of light relief so I dare say reading Mills and Boon is no worse.

But as understanding as I try to be I still think it's mind numbing, vomit inducing, head shaking pile of bulls testicals.

dirty bits? In my day you read M&B because you knew there wouldn't be any.

Unlikely to become valuable unless any of them is by Salman Rushdie before he became famous.

oh my. I'd heard they'd leapt forward into the 20th century, but I never imagined such hardcore stuff as Bedded at the Billionaire's Convenience. (I suppose even a billionaire's convenience is quite spacious.)

I've never read a single M&B title, even though my department buys them in large numbers on a regular basis.

We receive a high number of requests for back-issues, most of which we have to cancel because we just can't obtain them. They're in print for around three months.

Our two biggest reader groups are Asian women and the over 65s, with the latter being rather keen on the racier imprints.
