As we all know, Valentine’s Day is coming up soon! And of course you’re going to see all these recs for romances all over the place. But the problem is, they all look the same. It’s gonna be the same books, and they’re going to have the same types of people on them. But here at this blog, I want to celebrate BIPOC romance.
So, I’ve teamed with other BIPOC bloggers, BIPOC podcasters, BIPOC content creators on TT, and some BIPOC bookstagrammers to celebrate BIPOC romance. We’re all going to be under the hashtag #LoveinColor. Follow along on all platforms to see what we’ve got! There will also be an adult romance and a YA romance giveaway! There’ll be something for everyone! I made sure the range was from sweet to sweat! And it’s ranged from small to large creators, to help people gain new followers and interact with those accounts that are the same! I want to help get rid of the excuse that people can’t find diverse romance anymore, because it’s out there. Do the work and find it.
Tomorrow here on the blog I’ll have 2 guest bloggers recommending some romance books and I’m going to talk about illustrated covers, on Sunday I have Malia from Romance Schmomance here to tell her love story in romance tropes (LOVE THIS!) and I’ll try my hand on it lol , and on Monday I’ll be showing y’all a BIPOC romance spread that I made in my reading journal. For YA and adult. (YA centered since that’s what I mostly read!) The other posts by the other creators will go up throughout the weekend! I hope you all participate and I hope you have fun!
If you’re on TikTok, go to @BrooklynShoebabe and see her favorite romantic books and movies!
