Relaxing reading and also talks about social issues. Under rated. ๐Ÿ‘

Romance is the biggest selling genre, by a lot. It keeps the book industry afloat. Even more so since ebooks and audio make it harder to judge what somebody's reading on the train.

Not underrated at all, just looked down on by many.

it's a very sneaky genre, so many stories that are actually romances but because there are edgy characters or a bit of intrigue or action they aren't commonly regarded as such ๐Ÿ™‚

I like them. ๐Ÿ™‚

( and I've read so many , I like how they explore issues and character )
