Yup. I'm more than happy to talk about the actual quality of boy bands or romantasty or what have you but 99% of criticism starts with, "Why girls so dumb and like dumb things" and it's time to go to war.

My mind was struggling early this month to latch onto a romantasty book so I did a hard pivot to contemporary sports romances. 🏒 🏈

Absofuckinlutely not. I read a variety of romance and more romantasty, this is a nope.

Axie Oh I am obsessed with the Girl who fell beneath the sea. It so good (A romantasty in ya that is not clearly an adult book in disguise) and her K-POP contemporaries really are so well done.

i personally hate how people want me to basically answer for the perceived sins of romantasty if i say i like romance in genre fiction (and i don't even read romantasy), but i can say i like torture slop horror that's lowbrow and goofy, and people treat that as artsy compared to enjoying romance

Fighting over property and the inheritance. My husband described my ideal Romantasty novel as “Elf Maiden Warrior has inheritance issues” and god damn him, its true.

Yes, many romance authors start out in the fanfic space. Many self-publish before being acquired by a publisher. And online trends in fanfic/AO3 dire y influence tends in mainstream romance—see the massive romantasty boom!
I’m not making fun of any of these books or their audience - I’m just saying that there is a very clear online fanfic to published romance novels pipeline in both style and substance that is immediately recognizable to anyone who read LiveJournal or WattPad or AO3 fanfics in high school or college

Like romantasty but tired of werewolves, bad boy is the boyfriend, and enemies-to-lovers storyline?

Escala's Wish is your next Romantasy... unique, slow-burning, and not smut. Banter and intrigue.

No, I 100% get that. The world building suffers. Romantasty isn't about the systems and myths, it's about sexual-fantasies... Feels more like a play on words that shouldn't really count as part of the genre sometimes. There's nothing really *new*.

Do you enjoy queer stories?

I sometimes read romance but not so much the popular romantasty, but I did like Rainbow Rowells Carry On series. I have borrowed over 400 books from Libby and most of them I have enjoyed. Some of them I hate read like the Frieda McFadden ones

Easy & fun to read, typical characters, tropes, some sword play. A few potential triggers. The last 10 pages are heavy, not for everyone 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️.

Learning about another TikTok romantasty dystopian novel and growing increasingly concerned over how often "some people are just naturally better" and "genocide is bad but don't be too mean to the people who perpetuate it" seem to be themes

Really? Cos I have a major problem with it. Most times the fantasy aspect does not make sense. Romantasty is romance authors dipping their toes in fantasy and they don't care about gaping plot holes in their fantasy world.
