The Best Romance Books and Novels

The best part about the human experience is that we all experience life differently – and this goes for our romantic lives, too. With a drastic increase in popularity in recent years, the romance genre has expanded to allow for new and inventive tropes, retellings of classic love stories, and unforgettable characters that know just what to do to make their partner tick. 

The opportunities for romantic reading are endless; perhaps you’re just starting out, and the only novels you can get your hands on are the ones from your mother’s collection. Maybe you’re looking for classic tales of star-crossed lovers, or you’ve just come to terms with your own sexuality and you’re on the hunt for romance books with asexual characters. You could even be in a committed relationship and are looking for romance books that will convince your husband that yes, he can read romance books too

From historical romance books to holiday romance books to books to read if you’re a die-hard Sarah Dessen fan, we have a love story that will speak to you.
