WOW IM GONNA MAIL YOU LIKE 30 BAD ROMANCE BOOKS LADY THEYRE SO FUCKIGN FUNNY
screams
i’m scared that i’ll go from ironically liking them to genuinely liking them
trying to defend the books from anyone who dares call them not REAL LITERATURE
“SHUT UP YOU’RE WRONG THEY ARE!!! ITS ALL SO REAL AND ITS HOW A BOY SHOULD TREAT A GIRL!!!! “
My sister collects them.
We both took a Mills and Boon elective in highschool - me because I didn’t pay attention to what I signed up for (my friend and I wrote a satirical story about the true behaviour of princes that got put in the yearbook), and she because she’d heard about it from me. They even invite an actual author in who gives a talk and free books.
I’ve always called them rea literature because even though I was a math geek, all my friends were lit nerds and did English Extension (apparently EVERYTHING EVER is literature) but I don’t think you’ll stop liking them ironically.
They’re all so bad they’re good. My sister and I compete to find the most ridiculous ones and so far I am the crown champion because I found a book (that’s apparently a whole series) that is an “intrigue”/mystery mills and boon that’s partially told from the perspective of a detective cat. The cat also sometimes thinks about if the people it’s “protecting” will give it salmon for dinner.
