Nothing says "passionate romance novel" like the horrors of World War One/Two

Do you get lost in book stores easily? Have you looked for Victor Hugo in the romance section, only to be disappointed to find out Barnes & Noble considers his work to be lacking in the shirt-ripping, scintillating appeal of your average romance novel?

Then Target has heard you pleas. No longer shall you literary choices be dictated by the bias and discrimination of employees with "standards." As these photos will show, Target defines some great classics to be one Fabio pose away from a romantic tour-de-force.



1.) I'm not sure--but the caged bird might be singing because it's catching an eyeful of the penniless beauty and her boss meeting up after work.


2.) It's all quiet because the boss is working overtime.
3.) Yeeeeah. A few things wrong with this picture:

a.) A book about things being set on fire (including a human caricature set on fire on the cover) beside a book dealing with the Holocaust.

b.) Did I mention the Holocaust yet?...

c.) Because the book about the Holocaust is sitting right near the Greek Tycoon's Achilles Heel--a book about the terror and trials of dealing with a severe limp.

Little known fact though: Harlequin novels are so hot, they catch fire before they reach 451 degrees.
