I wrote this! I structured it to highlight some of the many many (many!) genealogies of SFF romance and the authors who are writing into those spaces. Can't wait to get more recs from SFF and romance readers!
Romantasy, the crossover genre that blends the passion of romance with the high-stakes escapism of fantasy, has dominated the literary landscape. Here’s where to start.

Now that sales are declining compared to romantasy and contemporary, are we in the midst of the unmaking of the historical romance genre? #RomanceBooks #HistoricalRomance

I recently finished @amaliehoward.bsky.social's The Worst Duke in London and I loved it so much. I was so happy for them, and just like in 10 Things I Hate About You that the villain got what he deserved! I can't wait to learn what Briar's rom-com connection is and to read her story!

“Howard touches upon the social inequalities and marginalization of the time, adding nuance and depth to this witty, suspenseful romance. A thoroughly entertaining romp.” - Publishers Weekly

Today is International Women’s Day, no matter if someone wants to erase everything our foremothers endured to get us here and are still trying to invalidate our spaces, inclusion, and existence. To all my diverse (poc, lgbtqia+, disabled, and neurodivergent) sisters, I see you. Wear those crowns! 👑

I'm listening to @amaliehoward.bsky.social's "Never Met a Duke Like You" and I love the nods to Clueless and Emma! They are still at their "enemies" stage so I can't wait to see how this romance comes to be! 💖 #HistoricalRomance
