Pucksandpaperbacks | Testing Romance Book Tropes until I Find a New Favorite | Episode One @pucksandpaperbacks | Uploaded September 2023 | Updated October 2024, 3 hours ago.
[CC] My journey to find my new favorite romance trope!

I am on the search for a new favorite book trope. Welcome the first episode of my new series, Trope Taste Test where I am testing book tropes until I find a new favorite. I wanted to try out different book tropes to see which book tropes are a new favorite and which book tropes I should avoid. In the first episode, I read four academic rivals books in Young Adult fiction. Will I like the academic rivals to lovers trope or choose to pass? #booktube #lgbtqbooks #readingvlog
