Romance readers will want to check out the list of RT All-Time Classics. This list compiles all of the books that were awarded the 5-star rating. The rating is reserved for very rare and special books that transcend the boundaries of the romance genre. This rating was only given out by RT's senior reviewer Melinda Helfer. (When other reviewers wanted to give out the review, it would have to be approved by Melinda.) When Melinda passed away in August 2000, the 5-star rating was retired in her honor and these books became RT's All-Time Classics.
