Themes Found In True Love Books

By Della Monroe


When people contemplate romance novels, they often judge these works of literature as shallow and not very interesting. They believe that the stories center around one common theme and that the endings are all the same. However, true love books can be complicated and well-written works of literature that center on several themes that revolve around one or two main characters. People who are fans of this literary genre understand that these novels are just as interesting as any non-fiction book or a literary staple taught in the classroom.

It is true that these novels do feature an underlying romantic tone. If they did not, they could not be labeled as belonging to this genre. Most stories feature star-crossed lovers looking to build trust and gain a romantic partner in life. Sometimes the stories feature one half of the couple pursuing the other while other works tell the story of two people who seemingly are mismatched coming together to create the perfect union.

Despite the inevitable ending, however, these works still feature ideas that give the novels validity and intrigue. For example, many authors of this genre like to set their stories in medieval times. They include details about how the main female character struggles against her male counterpart to gain his respect and trust. The theme touches on women's rights in that time.

Other works of romantic literature take place in frontier days of America's settling. The author might include references to historic figures like Billy the Kid or Wyatt Earp to give the story more intrigue. It also shows that the writer knows what he or she is talking about to the reader. This angle hooks readers to the story from start to finish.

Some people may wonder why authors of these tales bother to include these ideas into their works rather than just focusing on the romantic aspect. Authors generally say that they want to give their characters dimension and make them more memorable to readers. Adding other themes to the story helps achieve that goal.

This effort is intended as well to give their creations legitimacy so that they can be viewed as something more than just a dime store romance novel. Romantic stories in fact have a legitimate place in the literary world, according to many critics who have the objectivity to judge the writing fairly. The novels help round out the literary industry that is known to many today.

Because of the effort that authors put into creating the ideal book, the genre has garnered a wider fan base. These novels are no longer reserved just for housewives and bored stay-at-home moms. College students, working professionals, and even college professors have been known to read these books.

A novel written about true love may seem shallow to many who have never before read these works. People may be surprised to learn that complex theme work can be found inside each novel. The craftiness of the books helps give them legitimacy and credence in the eyes of literary critics and audiences who come to appreciate them better.
