The Rise of Romantasy: Why Fantasy + Romance is Taking Over Bookshelves
Share
If you haven’t noticed yet, romantasy is basically ruling the book world right now. And honestly? We’re not mad about it. What’s not to love about sword fights, fae warriors, and love interests who are somehow both emotionally unavailable and perfect boyfriend material?
What Even Is Romantasy?
Romantasy is what happens when fantasy and romance have a dramatic, trope-filled love child. Think world-ending battles and epic love confessions all wrapped up in one book. Authors like Sarah J. Maas and Jennifer L. Armentrout kicked down the door with their series, and now the rest of us are just here hoarding their books like it’s our full-time job.
