I realized where it was too. Haha. I work for Wegmans too, but I wouldn’t have any idea if that was my store or not.

Yeah, this is definitely Wegmans (I used to work at one). Though with Wegmans, the sign for the product is ABOVE it, but most people look below (like in this picture). It’s a funny “out of context” thing, but the romance novels shouldn’t be near the kid’s books anyway.

I was just thinking that… the prob is that they churn out so many of these (Mills & Boon proudly claim about one a week, or one a day, something insane between those limits), that whoever thinks up new and exciting scenes to show on the covers must have run fresh out of ideas – or just got bored – many, many years ago and just started painting the same stock moderately-attractive, average weight and height WASP couple (or WASP woman, dusky mid-east/oriental man) in vaguely different poses, hair colour/styles, clothes and backgrounds instead. When you’ve got that many to pile through, may as well make the composition easy on yourself.

Does make it difficult to tell them apart though doesn’t it. I suppose they’re the modern equivalent of the old pulp novel. Buy it cheap, read it, throw it.

Either that, or someone switched a shelf-talker. Not difficult to do, but a pain in the neck for the employees. Faked photo.

Anpu does not approve the use of such books for children. You don’t give these books to children. You give them Playboys. Duh.

Why do all romance novels have the exact same man and woman in nearly the same pose. Is there only one romance novel artist worldwide? If so he must be a millionare and have the easiest job ever.

Nobel’s wife was cheating on him with a mathemetician, allegedly, and that’s why there’s no Nobel Prize in math. So not a eunuch, but a cuckold.
And he invented dynamite. Keep in mind I learned all this at Quizzo.
