LOVE IS WHAT WE NEED!

‘Pleasure is the point. Feeling good is not frivolous, it is freedom’ -Adrienne Maree Brown
It is fundamentally feminist for a gal to get a happy ending - joy and love and success and all the good stuff - so we're long overdue expanding our Romance selection - always room for more wholesome, saccharine delights or queer goodies without the garbage tropes.
So here we go, a wee appreciation post for the romance novel- the sweet, the fluffy, the happy endings we all deserve.
