Top Ten Tuesday: The Bookish Romantic Tag

Hi and welcome to the reading world!

Today’s Top Ten Tuesday, hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl, is a holiday freebie for Valentine’s Day. Similar to what I did for the Christmas freebie, I’ve decided to make a holiday themed tag! Today, I’m introducing The Bookish Romantics Tag.

This tag is centered around celebrating all kinds of love we have in our lives with prompts based on tropes in romances/romance movies. I’ve noticed that the romance books I like tend to involve more than just the romance- I love seeing great friends, supporting characters that have depth, families and lives outside of the relationship, etc. even while we’re getting the love story of 2 leads, so I decided to make this tag inspired by that! 

Feel free to share your picks for the prompts below (they don’t have to be in the romance genre- all of mine aren’t!), or if you do this tag yourself let me know so I can check it out!

Without further ado, here’s The Bookish Romantics Tag!
