Top Ten Tuesday #8
Books with My Favorite Tropes/Themes
This week’s prompt is fun, isn’t it? There are so many tropes/themes I love. For this post, I’ve decided to focus on romance tropes since there are so many good ones. My favorites include: friends to lovers, enemies to lovers, fake relationship, forbidden love, soul mates, etc. I even don’t mind a little bit of instalove now and then. Just keep the love triangles away from me and I’ll be happy. Here are my top 12 books with my favorite romance trope/theme in them:
What about you? Which books have your favorite romance trope/theme in them? Do we have any in common?
Hi Jenni! A nice mix of romance books you have today! Lots of different tropes as well.
Happy TTT!

Thanks, Mareli! I had fun choosing my books. 😀
Winter of the Witch sounds good!

It’s so good! I highly recommend the series!
I am not a fan of love triangles either!
I find that most readers aren’t. Yet, authors still write them, lol.
Great list, I have several of these on my TBR, too.
Here is our Top Ten Tuesday. Thank you!
Awesome. I hope you enjoy them once you read them! 🙂
Terrific list. I love all those tropes too! I just finished reading The Unhoneymooners, and have the Flatshare on my TBR..
I hope you enjoyed reading The Unhoneymooners. I also hope you like reading The Flatshare. It was my favorite book last year.
There are not many romance tropes that I don’t enjoy, but I am with you, no love triangles. I enjoyed Twilight and I have The Flatshare on my TBR list.
I think love triangles is the most hated romance trope, but I could be wrong. I just hear all the time how much readers hate them. Yet, authors still write them.
What a fun collection! I love those I’ve read from your list, and heard good things about the others! 😍
Here’s my TTT post
Thanks! I had a lot of fun thinking of my favorite tropes and coming up with my list. 😀
I have to admit I’m not a big romance lover, I like some romance tropes, mainly friends to lovers and slow burn romances but by and large I could really do with less romance in my books!

I understand. I know a couple of people IRL that are like that. 🙂 We all march to the beat of a different drum, right?
Friends to lovers and fake relationships are favorite romance tropes of mine, too! And I agree, love triangles are not my jam either. 😉
Thanks for stopping by my TTT earlier!
You’re welcome. I love your blog name. I think friends to lovers is my favorite trope. 😀
A great list of romances books! I recently read The Flatshare and enjoyed it.
Thank you for stopping by my post earlier!

The Flatshare was my favorite book last year. 😀
Fake relationship books are always so cute, I’ll definitely be reading more of them. I like enemies to lovers if it’s over a series arc, sometimes I think it’s done too quickly.
Yeah, I definitely get that. I don’t mind if it’s done in one book, usually because it’s a book that focuses on romance and nothing else. Sometimes, it’s not done very well and I don’t like it very much, but there are series that I don’t like very much either. I think it just depends on the characters and the story for me.
I really love enemies to lovers and also enjoyed The Unhoneymooners.

Yeah, that’s a really fun trope. I love it as well. I need to read more books with that trope. 🙂
The Flatshare and Unhoneymooners both were great. Now I need to look for some of your fantasy romances.
I’m glad you liked them too! 🙂 I hope you enjoy reading the fantasy romances. Let me know if you need any more recommendations.
I don’t read much romance, but I do enjoy a good enemies-to-lovers plot. The trope just seems to add tension and excitement to any story. Nice list!
Happy TTT!

Yes, like the tension and excitement that enemies to lovers gives to that type of romance. 😀
