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!
It’s the holiday season. Either your country is too cold right now and you go to a warmer place for holidays. Or your home is really, really hot, and you want a little bit of cold and snow for this Christmas time. Either way if you have the opportunity, you might go on holidays and spend a beautiful time with friends, family or any person you want to take. Or go alone! It doesn’t matter the company because you’re going to meet the love of your life there. But it’s always nice to have your friends to be there for you to gossip and hype each other up.
Going to another city and meeting someone there is always such a surprise to the main character. They weren’t there to meet someone specifically. But destiny brought them together (or the lovely author!!!). And most definitely the main character has to go back home. Maybe they got a new job? The reasons could be infinite but these two will meet each other again and their love story will blossom before us in this great epic happily ever after.
