Booktok invented Romance. Somebody call his mama to come get him.

I own that I'm officially Old Lady Yelling At Clouds, but no one will ever be able to convince me that Booktok isn't the junkyard fire of Romancelandia.

Yes!

This is your last chance to submit your monthly theme suggestions for the 2026 #TBRChallenge! I'm hoping sign-ups for next year can start on Monday 12/1 wendythesuperlibrarian.blogspot.com/2025/11/tbrc... #RomBkBlog #Romancelandia

ICYMI: It's time to start thinking about the 2026 #TBRChallenge - like wha?! I'm looking for suggestions again for the optional monthly themes. More details at the blog: wendythesuperlibrarian.blogspot.com/2025/11/tbrc... #RomBkBlog #Romancelandia

If you're looking for a historical romance (and you know you are...), A Nun for a Viking Warrior by Lucy Morris is just $1.99. It's really good - lots of emotional grist for the angst mill. My review from 2022 wendythesuperlibrarian.blogspot.com/2022/01/libr... #RomBkBlog #Romancelandia

It's #TBRChallenge day! This month's theme is Change of Plans. What's a heroine to do when she moves back to her small hometown only to find jobs in short supply? Open a car wash, with a twist. Shenanigans ensue. wendythesuperlibrarian.blogspot.com/2025/11/tbrc... #RomBkBlog #Romancelandia

For November's #tbrchallenge prompt: 'Change of Plans', I read HONEYMOON SWEET by Allison Temple, a cute, fake-relationship shipboard romance that kicks off when one MC is dumped at the altar and decides to go on his honeymoon cruise alone. A bit insta-lovey, but it works. #mmromance #romancelandia

#TBRChallenge 2025 Audiobook Review: Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir (Change of Plans) Audiobook review: Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir November's TBR optional theme: Change of Plans After absolutely loving the audiobook of The Martian, I picked up Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir as soon as it came…

The November 2024 #TBRChallenge is "change of plans." I chose a very new addition to Mount TBR, Roy Wood Jr's memoir. It is a beautiful, poignant book from a serious man who has made a career out of making people laugh. I LOVED this and highly recommend it! 📚 www.goodreads.com/review/show/...

Question for any romance novel history people out there: does anyone know who might have been the first romance author to write/publish strict dual POV, ie: in equally distributed, alternating chapters? (Or, first-ish, I know tracking firstness in literature is complicated) Feel free to RT/boost
