Press release from the Milwaukee Public Library: Aug 16, 2021 8:58 AM Happy August and happy Romance Awareness Month! We are halfway to February and also probably experiencing the hottest temperatures of the year, at least here in Milwaukee, so it is a grand time to revel in all things happily-ever-after (HEA). A guaranteed HEA is a promise that, despite the many twists and turns the story may take, you can rest assured the main characters will find joy and hope by the end. And joy, especially in these times, is subversive, even cathartic, to watch or read.  You, too, can add a little romance to your life this August by watching a summer romance film from Hoopla, listening to the Romance in the Air playlist from Freegal Music, or reading some of the great rom-coms listed below that are recommended by the special guest authors of the Milwaukee Public Library's upcoming RomCom Madness virtual program. And yes! You can register to attend too! Register in advance for this webinar. After registering, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the webinar.
