#romatasy
I read the first 2 books a few years ago and I really like them! I’m rereading them so I can read the whole series back to back. I’m not a romatasy girly but I love the MC Keira and the world building

And the finale!

I just liked these. Not category or reason. Just Enjoyment.

Shade of Magic series is surreal and magical and beautiful.

Kiss of Iron is romatasy done right.

Nocticadia is a dark academia with a little bit of horror. It's wonderful.

Knight and the Moth is whimsical

1/2

I really enjoyed this series. Her writing style has changed a bit over the years, and I’ve been less into her recent stuff, but this is back to the more traditional fantasy/adventure style she used to do. Before romatasy took over the whole genre. 😂

Saw this today, chuckled as I know quite a few people who would appreciate it

seeing romatasy talk here
if it weren't for me going to my hs library and stumbling upon throne of glass, i would NOT have started writing again. or even reading as much as I do. Cause I started the series, caught up, and then she released ACOTAR and it opened up so much for me.

The Prisoner of Zenda is arguably a romatasy (imaginary country, the male main character is the less practical, more emotional one in the central romance…)

A romance novel and a romatasy novel are likely to have somewhat different sweet spot lengths. Once you pinpoint your exact sub-genre you want your novel to be 'around' that optimized book length. While writing, track your word count ongoing to see where you are.

Not every fantasy novel nowadays has to be romatasy.
Tell me your most unhinged literary opinion, as a little treat

I'm like 90% done, but if you like enemies to lovers, romantasy, a hot obligate man-eater with fangs, 🥵, lgbt representstion, and a cool multi-plane world concept then I 100% recommend Voidwalker by S. A. MacLean. I'm tearing through it I love the characters sm😭🥲😻 #booksky #romatasy #voidwalker

Last rp. Thats seriously the thing that pisses me off the most about people fanning the flames over ‘spice’ in romatasy books and going OMG can you believe this??? When its hardly left of vanilla.

Romatasy storyline:
“I failed you”
No, I failed you”
Absolutely not, I failed you!”
“I will never forgive myself for failing you.”
EXPLICIT SEX SCENE follows

Had my phone connected to the car, listening to a gay romatasy audiobook on our trip. Hubby gets call on his phone and answers, forgetting his phone isnt connected to the car. So the nice lady calling to confirm our appointments heard, loudly, “ONCE YOU GO DRAGON, ALL THE REST IS LAGGIN’”. 😬🤦🏼‍♂️

I saw someone give a negative review to an enemies to lovers romatasy because "he was too mean to her."

Honey that's the POINT. It's *ENEMIES* to lovers, not besties to soul mates. What's it like to have only ever had healthy relationships?? 😭

All this talk of #romatasy frame work for Daggerheart & tusk love. I would like to offer an alternative #bluerose #ttrpg it’s the 2nd edition using the age system from @greenroninpub.bsky.social it has stunts, cool species and swashbuckling duels. They even have a #5e conversion book (not pictured)

The worst, worst part about “have a wonderful secret” is that it sounds like it’s a line from some shitty YA romatasy series.

Like it’s what the elves tell the heroine, a bookish human teen who doesn’t realize how powerful & beautiful she is, before she goes into battle.

If I could open up a bookstore that focuses on Black romatasy authors… that would be a dream.

This week in Lit Lit news: our summer series has begun with A Darker Shade of Magic by V.E. Schwab, the first book in the Shades of Magic series. There are alternate versions of London, clever thieves, blood magic, but NOT romatasy, dammit!

(maybe...probably)

No, no, si en realidad el comentario no iba por ese camino (creo), es solo que alguien desconocido ha visto un fragmento de una novela de erótica A SECAS y le ha dicho a otra persona (tb desconocida) que hablaba de romatasy: ten, pa que te inspires. Y me he quedado a lo 🧍🏼‍♀️
July 14, 2025 at 10:27 AM
well i honestly think romatasy has a sort of pulp verve to it and is far from the worst offender in lifeless genera fiction
