Shake Up Your TBR with the Romance Reading Challenge
Ready for a romance reading challenge? This month, I’m daring you to try a new genre or subgenre and step outside your reading comfort zone. From my first spicy historical (thanks, Lisa Kleypas!) to discovering fantasy romance through Twilight and From Blood and Ash, I’m sharing how taking a chance led me to my favorite reads—and how it can do the same for you!
About the Author
I’m a mom of two spirited girls and one oversized Saint Bernard. I have a degree in English from the University of Wisconsin. By day, I work in health care as a Health Literacy expert; by night, I’m off wandering swoony fictional worlds, chasing plot twists and happily-ever-afters. I’ve been in love with the romance genre for as long as I can remember—I've read thousands of love stories and even had my own meet-cute with my library director husband… in a bookstore, of course.
