Aggravating-Deer6673 on May 21, 2025 1:05 am No book comes to mind sooner then: Me Before You by JoJo Moyes The Fault in Our Stars and Looking for Alaska by John Green Brokeback Mountain by Annie Proulx (to be followed by watching the movie will put you in a proper mood) These literally crushed me.
No-Strawberry-5804 on May 21, 2025 1:10 am General reminder that in order for a book to be a “romance” it needs to have an HEA or HFN. If it doesn’t, it’s a “love story” Not an HEA: If He Had Been With Me The Boy and His Ribbon/The Girl and Her Ren Under Your Scars
