XOXO: Fangirling about Romances • The Courtship Dance

December 9, 2022 Leave a Comment

It seems I always want to make these romance posts every three+ years because it’s been three years since the last one (five years from that one). I’m very much a mood reader—the romance has to hit a specific trope I’m looking to read, so these romances I am going to discuss has passed the favorite trope test. But what is XOXO: Fangirling about Romances?

XOXO: Fangirling about Romances is a feature where I discuss anything (and everything) about romance novels. I will discuss everything about these romances—from my favorite tropes to wanting to slap these characters for how dense or stupid they are. Everything is on the table!

XOXO: Fangirling about Romances is a feature where Kelly (at Effortlessly Reading) and I (at The Novel Hermit) discuss anything (and everything) about romance novels. It will occur twice a month and we will alternate posting it on our blogs. ~~You see this post on my blog, you’ll see the next one on KELLY’s blog.~~ You see this post (and the next one) on my blog because Kelly is actually on hiatus at the moment until late March.

We are big fans of romance novels. We don’t get to talk about it as much on our blogs because they’re very geared toward YA books, so this feature is our way of fangirling over romance novels.

Today, we are talking about The Luckiest Lady in London by Sherry Thomas, specifically about the romance between Felix and Louisa. I loved it (I’m sure I’ve shouted about it from rooftops), but Kelly, well, she didn’t hate it, so that’s good. I kept trying to convince her of Felix’s endearing-ness, but she was not having any of it. :(

WARNING: If you haven’t read this book, then beware of spoilers!

XOXO: Fangirling about Romances is a new feature where Kelly (at Effortlessly Reading) and I (at The Novel Hermit) discuss anything (and everything) about romance novels. It will occur twice a month and we will alternate posting it on our blogs. You see this post on my blog, you’ll see the next one on Kelly’s blog.

Kelly and I thought it was great idea to kick off this feature on Valentine’s Day! We had intended to talk about a particular romance book today, but unfortunately, things got in the way that prevented us from reading it and discussing it. Instead, we will just talk about why we read romance. Let me tell you, this conversation veers into a very…weird direction.
