I hate in romances where they spend the first 80% making excuses to not be together, only for them for finally get together and date for a week, then they have the miscommunication and one character runs off and breaks it off. Like if they just acted like grownups and had a discussion it would have been resolved. Then the last two chapters they get back together and it’s true love and then the epilogue they have three kids

Me too especially because I'd much rather read a romance book about adults that doesn't feel like they're created with common teenage thought processes. I'm not gonna say they're bad and I've enjoyed some of them I just wish more romance others didn't follow that formula 😭

Romance is a valid book genre and people who read romance are absolutely 100% a reader! I don't like when people invalidate romance because romance is absolutely everywhere. Trillers often have mention of love and romance, classics are mostly romance, poetry can be about love. Everywhere you look, there is love and there is nothing wrong with it !

about the third-act break-up, that was my biggest fear when I read Icebreaker. They became a happy couple with like 150 pages left and i genuinely feared, there would be a third-act breakup. but the conflict was between stassie and her skating partner and nate was a super supportive and encouraging boyfriend. you can say what you want about icebreaker, i get it´s not for everyone, but i will take no criticism on its third-act conflict!

I feel like it's so common to hate on things that mainly women love and I think that's why the romance genre gets so much flack. There areso many people that only confine themselves to one genre, doing it doesn't make them "not a real reader" so the same thing should apply to people that solely want to read romance.

At 10:10 I kind of agree. I've only read two Christina Lauren books but one of those was the famous Love and Other Words. I felt like the book was a little physical between the characters and it surprised me when I heard people say it was the deepest relationship they've read in a romance book. (Not hating on the book! I actually enjoyed it a lot while reading and would recommend!)

6:11 Hot take, I prefer 3rd person over 1st. I got into the Shadowhunter books as my first real reading for fun experience, and all are told in 3rd, and then Harry Potter, so when I got to 1st it was a bit jarring. Now I don’t differentiate in my mind either, but as a young teen, I did lol. As a writer now (for fun, unfortunately nothing published yet), I primarily write in 3rd person.

11:10 My grandmother dated my grandfather’s brother first 😂 If I’m not mistaken, the brother proposed and she said no. I never met my grandfather or his brother so I don’t know anything beyond that, but it’s a crazy story to hear. As far as I know, they were civil about it. Also, my aunt (Mom’s sister) dated my uncle (Dad’s brother) before my other grandmother disapproved of her and they broke up.

Personally, I don't purposefully crack the spine of paperbacks bc then the glue would tare and the page would fall out, and hey I don't have all the money in the world to just buy a whole nother copy when my worn one is still technically readable. I do write in it for the same reason of 'living' in it, though. I don't mind the cracked edges, but I prefer not to crack the spine just so it will stay together longer, and I will be able reread it more without it falling apart
