To explain a little about what this post will be about, every Trope Tuesday post starts with the same introduction. In every romance book you read there are tropes or archetypes you find inside its pages. You can also see them in shows, movies, plays, etc. Every type of entertainment and media. Romantic tropes are everywhere, and they are fabulous. I adore them and I always tend to find my favorite ones in romance books so I can enjoy them even more. Trope Tuesday is a weekly column where I share books that I know people will enjoy with a specific central trope.
What is a trope? Urban Dictionary explains it best: “Despite the erroneous definitions already published here, trope on the interwebs really refers to an often overused plot device. It can also be described as another variation on the same theme. TV shows, movies, comics, games, anime’, & books are full of tropes & many rabid fan-sites now name & track said tropes with self-explanatory title for each one.” We can name a few: accidental pregnancy, best friends to lovers, sibling’s best friend, marriage of convenience, and so many more. Your favorite couples? They probably got a trope too! It’s always so nice to realize or find out your favorite romance trope and keep searching for books with the same theme. So really? I’m just helping you find that new favorite book of yours. If ever you want a post on a trope I haven’t done yet, do drop me a tweet at @thebookvoyagers and let me know!
Who is in the mood for silver foxes? *puts hand up* Me, me, me. You? If you’re also searching for a silver fox character, you’re in the right place. Because today we’re talking about them. There is something about them that you cannot help but just *screams into my pillow*. Especially if the silver fox is shown explicitly on the cover of the book, right? Showing those grey hairs, maybe in his beard!!! *chef kiss* Wonderful, wonderful. They might be a bit gruff sometimes or shy and silent. But don’t worry inside it’s all mushy and sweet and gooey and the other characters will DEFINITELY fall in love with them. Oh, how I love romance books.
