I'm not gonna lie, that last paragraph made me cry. Because I am almost completely certain, that this will be me. I am 18 now, but I just know that my love for (historical) romance novels will stay with me.

I think there's something really cool about growing with the books you love!

Oh, absolutely. I think it gives you something constant, something that stays with you while life itself is ever changing.

I didn't know that historical romance could be consensual and empathetic! I just believed what everyone regurgitated, maybe I'll check them out! This was such an interesting read, thank you!

Thank you! And there are lots of good historical romance novels (old and new!) out there, I bet you can find something that speaks to you. :)

I've gotten very used to bookstores and libraries putting her in romance but I still have the capacity to be surprised when it happens in trend articles about romance itself!
