The Genre Evolution

This week, I’m joined by Jasmyne as we look back at how my reading tastes have changed over time. We trace my genre timeline—from early romance and fantasy to dark romance, sports romance, and the high-spice romantic era—and how each shift has reflected my own growth. We also dig into the biggest romance trends heading into 2025, including STEM rom-coms, the resurgence of sports romance, neurodivergent slow burns, dark-academia love stories, and the ongoing dominance of grumpy/sunshine. It’s a conversation about how exploring new genres can reveal new sides of us and keep the joy of reading alive.
