Defining Romantasy

Alanna joins us this week as we attempt to define Romantasy—because somehow dragons, destiny, and dramatic make-outs all ended up in the same genre and nobody stopped it. We chat about when fantasy picked up a romance side-quest, whether it’s gone too far (or not far enough), why BookTok is feral for morally grey love interests, and how covers and marketing now scream “there will be kissing.” We laugh about tropes taking over genres, debate if Romantasy is a trend or the new normal and wildly speculate about what comes next. It’s playful, nerdy, and delightfully chaotic—perfect for anyone who likes their magic with a side of pining.Join Les and rotating cast of co-hosts for a weekly fun filled, talk about all things books!You can shoot us an email to [email protected] matter who you are we guarantee you will find a show (or multiple) for yourself on the Dufferin Ave Media Network!
