March 2025 – BYOB: Hate the Trope, Love the Book

Wednesday, March 19, 2025, at 8 pm EST A virtual book club for swoon-worthy romance novel lovers. All bookworms have that one trope that they cannot stand, whether it be secret baby, friends to lovers, or marriage of convenience. There is just something about some tropes that just rubs us the wrong way. But there is always a book that is the exception to that rule. A book that you adore even though its main trope is one that you absolutely hate. This month’s BYOB is all about showing off those books you love, even though you hate the trope featured in it.
