    These books both looked like a wild time. It's not just a you problem with the issues with the "romance" because I feel the exact same! I want to truly believe they connect emotionally first! Also love me a fantasy book where romance isn't the main focus either, like Swordspoint by Ellen Kushner, one of my favs. Sick world building!

      @@scrivspo It was published in the 80s, but way ahead of its time! The focus is on the politics and the character dynamics with a splash of romance here and there. It's got the gossipy vibe of like Pride and Prejudice/Emma but without the focus on marriage

    I'm pretty sure I told you this already but if you're looking for a straight fantasy, no romance book Project Hail Mary was 1 of the only 3 5 ⭐ books from the last 3 years of mine. Spinning Silver was also really good but I don't think it's the right season for you to read it as it's a snowy setting but it was a 4.75 ⭐. The True Love Experiment was a great romance book that does have some spice but nothing like the books you read in this video and was 4.5 ⭐ if you're looking for something outside of what these were 😂

    I’m sure I’ve already recommended ‘A Darker Shade of Magic’ by VE Schwab. Such an amazing world, so interesting and there’s a bit of romance but it’s definitely emotionally connected and is mainly fantasy. Have a great week!

    I definitely went through a smut phase where I thought it was really hot and I basically lived for it. A year later and I just do not understand why I ever thought it was fun. Those passages you shared give me the woooooorst ick ever. My favorite romances are
    1. Love and Other Words
    2. The Hating Game
    3. You Deserve Each Other
    4. Beach Read
    Absolutely recommend them. Other than those I have never given a romance 5 stars (except for Magnolia Parks, but I would not count that as a romance tbh) even tho I have read at least 100 of them by this point...
