In this podcast episode, we chatted with Torry from Ready to Be Romanced Podcast in 2022 when she was just starting her romance reading journey. Torry came to me asking for new book recommendations to read based on some of her interests.
We discuss the various tropes and subgenres that are a must read for new romance readers. We dive into the following trope recommendations:
- Sports (mainly Hockey Romance, but we do share a bit of Baseball)
- A bit of edgy Billionaire stories (including a Mafia recommendation)
- Historical Romances that are perfect for the Bridgerton reader
- Torry’s own recommendations
- Why should Torry read Ice Planet Barbarians? If you need more Alien Romance, check out our 120+ Ultimate Alien Romance Recommendation list
If you are new to romance and are interested in trying this genre, I believe this episode will be the perfect introduction to the romance genre.
