I would really like to read some romance but everything I have found lately has been just really surface level and uninteresting.
I like when the book is kind of on the line between romance and literary fiction like Sally Rooney's books are. I enjoy when both the main characters are a bit unlikable and/or hurt and vulnerable.
I don't really like epic historical or fantasy romance so I am aiming for contemporary.
Some of the books I liked were Intermezzo by Sally Rooney, You, Again by Kate Goldbeck and Alone with You in the Ether by Olivie Blake so I am looking for something similar to those.
I also read some Emily Henry books and found them mostly enjoyable.
Any recs would be highly appreciated!

If you like Sally Rooney, I think you’d love Paper Castles by Fox. It’s a balance between romance and lit fic, and contemporary.
