History, hot takes, author interviews, and deep dives into romance novels every Wednesday. 100% NSFW. Each week Abigail Kelly sits down with a romance novel novice to break down a book or romance trope of her choice in an adult-flavored book report. It’s mostly a hilarious celebration of the much-maligned genre, but there’s facts, figures, and history in there, too. We super-duper promise it’s not all willies! Really!
