Beyond characters – tropes, settings and seasonal
When we talk about tropes, we also refer to a larger set of character types, settings and seasonal vibes that help you identify what to expect from the book and therefore pick up the one you’re in the mood for. If you pick up a biker romance or a billionaire romance, you have a pretty good idea what you’re in for. At the same time, those are terms that are often thrown around as tropes and they do fall in that larger book trope umbrella.
We’ve created separate pages for each of these to help you dive even deeper intro book tropes and find the perfect book for your mood.
