dusk till dawn stack 🌞🌻🌸🌷🌺🪻

& romance trope challenge (thank you to @strawberrybookshelf_ for always inspiring us with the most beautiful book stacks!) 😚😚😚

🌇 friends to lovers or enemies to lovers?
i’ve only found one book where i ATE up friends to lovers which was you, again (and they literally started as strangers/enemies) soooo i’m defs choosing enemies to lovers 👀 and in fantasies it’s just *chefs kiss*

🌇 fake dating or age gap?
100% fake dating!! the way so many of my fav romances are literally fake dating is embarrassing! there’s just something about both parties slowly falling in love with each other and not knowing what is real or fake makes the tension just so good!!

🌇 grumpy x sunshine or who did this to you?
who did this to you is just top tier!! we loveee a protective man!! in fantasies when he asks that and you just know he went on a bender to ruin that other person’s life 🤭 always always has me giggling

🌇 second chance or brothers best friend?
as a fellow wattpad girlie i grew up on brothers best friend but this year has made me fall head over heels with second chance! seeing two characters reconnecting and healing makes me so happy & the miscommunication hurts my soul in the best way possible!!

🌇 emotional storyline or romcom?
honestly i’m down for both but it just depends on my mood! but i do love a good cry 😭

🌇 spice before or after they fall in love?
AFTER! AFTER! AFTER! i do not want it before - i love my slow burns, i want to see the pining and the longing looks for the for majority of the book! (why pride and prejudice is top tier!)

tagging some angels but would loveee to see everyone have a go 🤍

would love to see you tagging your besties who always inspire you with their beautiful posts 🥹

hi cutiesss!! i’ve been having the best time listening & reading to romances non-stop!! but i can slowly feel my fantasy era coming with winter around the corner so i’m just trying to cram in as much romance as i can!

i thought i’d share some fav romances i’ve read in 2024! i’ve still got a few anticipated romances i want to get to: funny story, just for the summer, wild love, say you swear & butcher & blackbird in the next month!

my new faves of 2024 in no particular order:
- the bodyguard
- you, again !!
- something wilder
- heartless
- reckless
- mr wrong number
- addicted to you
- hothouse flower !! (not pictured as i just finished it this morning)

#romancetag 💓👩‍❤️‍👨🏩(thank you @libraryofshamsie for tagging me!)

💌 favourite romance novel?
so many to choose from! but i do want to say happy place & love theoretically because i see so much of myself in harriet & elsie, & it’s the most special feeling when you know you’re not alone in the world with how you act & think

💌 what is your favourite trope?
found family always & forever!!! nothing beats it but fake dating, second chance (which has grown on me soooo much) & forbidden romance are top tier!

💌 quotes from a romance book that stuck with you?
“In every universe, it’s you for me. Even if it’s not me for you.” - happy place
“You’re the only person I’m nice to. If you weren’t around, I’d have no redeeming qualities.” - you, again
“She makes my heart go, like, whoa. Boom, boom, fucking boom. All the time.” - keeping 13

💌 what do you love in a romance book?
i loveeee a good plot with real stories, heartbreak & complex characters! i also love romances that span across years & obviously when the guy falls first & would do absolute anything & everything for his girl!

💌 favourite romcom movies?
i’m a sucker for early 2000s romcoms! just like heaven, the lake house, she’s the man, serendipity, hitch, 10 things i hate about you, how to lose a guy in 10 days (the list goes on & on & on)

what’s your go to romance rec? 🥹💞
