Gay Romance Challenge

[reviews_and_ramblings]

With the New Year, I decide to challenge myself ;-) In this last few months my reading list is overflowing, and even if I do read a lot, some "do not miss" books unfortunately "missed" my schedule. And since I have finally surrendered to the e-reader mania and bought an Amazon Kindle, I decided to dig in all those books that are now available to me in a Kindle format.

Every month I will update the list, with the new entries and with the progress on my challenge. If you want to join me, you are welcome ;-) just comment; no prize if not the joy to read a good romance!

So here are the Top 100 Bestsellers in the Gay Romance category on Amazon (most of them are Kindles...):
