Contemporary/Romance

Welcome to the Contemporary/Romance page of the “Map of Genres” series. If you are unfamiliar with the series, you can read the introduction post here.

I don’t have many books/posts for this category yet, but I do read a fair number of books throughout the year that would fit, so I expect to be able to add more soon. Depending on what I read, I may also break down this list into different sub-genre categories. I will most likely split the genres in the future as well since not all books that are contemporary are necessarily romance and vice versa.

If you have suggestions of Contemporary or Romance books I should read, I would love to hear them in the comments!
