Romance & Rom-Coms by trope Part 1 : Age Gap to Grumpy Sunshine – Fabulous Festive Reads 2024 #RespectRomFic – Jill's Book Cafe
I started my Christmas reads last month and rom-coms have formed the largest part of that list. I can't resist them. I know to an outsider they might appear formulaic with a traditional third act break-up and more tropes than you can shake a stick at but who cares, that's what I love. I love…

Fabulous Festive Reads 2024 Part 2 : LGBTQ+ Festive Romance #RespectRomFic – Jill's Book Cafe
