Hey RomanceTwitter! I'm on the hunt for a RomCom that's *actually* hilarious. Looking for recs of romances that made you laugh out loud, and are not secretly grief books, trauma books, or cancer books. Contemporary preferred. RTs welcome. Please don't tag authors.

We are looking for blog writers, please dm me if you'd like to contribute.
