I can’t believe it’s already time to start pitching around my essay: So You’re Thinking of Writing a Piece About Romance Novels in February? Maybe Don’t

[Midlands Network of Popular Culture @MidsPopCulture]

"We move away from fear, terror, horror and the grotesque as defining features of gothic evolution, and look at the centrality of desire: the hungry beating heart of the Gothic, sometimes opposed to and sometimes aligned with it's horrors"

This is the…opposite of an unpopular opinion.

People are vocal about wanting romance books that don’t end w/ babies because babies are the NORM & that’s not what everyone’s HEA looks like. Not sure an opinion can be considered unpopular if it fits within societal expectations.

reading romance books? falling for fictional characters? 10/10 ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ i highly recommend it
