RomCom Tropes: Our Likes, Dislikes and Top Picks

In this hot month of August, we’re taking a plunge into the refreshing pool of romantic comedies. Ah, romcoms! They’re a wonderful blend of humor and romance, filled with heart-fluttering moments and laughter-inducing scenarios. And who can resist the charm of a good romcom (https://fully-booked.ca/genre/romance...) ? They’re the perfect escape, taking us on a rollercoaster ride of emotions and leaving us with a warm, fuzzy feeling inside. But have you ever wondered what makes a romcom tick? Well, we’ve been exploring this question, and discovered that it all boils down to one key element: tropes. In the world of romcoms, these tropes are like a playbook that authors use to create engaging narratives. They are familiar, yet versatile enough to be rendered in unique ways in each story. A well-executed trope can add depth to the characters and plot, making the story more engaging and memorable. We’ve been discussing these tropes throughout the month, sharing our favorite examples, and analyzing how they contribute to the charm and appeal of romantic comedies. But our discussions haven’t just been about romcoms and their tropes. We’ve also been diving into our personal reading habits and sharing our experiences.

Friends to Lovers: On this opposite end of the spectrum, characters who have been friends for a long time realize they have deeper feelings for each other. The journey from friendship to love is usually a heartwarming one, filled with shared memories and the fear of jeopardizing their friendship. This trope adds depth to the characters’ relationships, and they have a shared history that enriches their romance. Opposites Attract: Exactly what it says, this trope revolves around characters who are polar opposites in personality, background, or lifestyle, yet find themselves falling in love.
