Скачать или смотреть 19 Fantasy Romance Tropes

For about 10 months, I’ve been reading every Fantasy Romance novel I’ve come across. From the most viral BookTok picks to self-published works with less than 100 reviews, I’ve read it all. At the time, it seemed like spending 12 hours a day reading about sassy heroines and the shadow daddies that love them was a bit unproductive, but look at me now! It turns out I was just doing research and what’s more productive than research?!

Join me as I put the English degree I was told I’d never use to good use and analyze 19 popular tropes in Fantasy Romance.
