    quick transmigrations are my guilty pleasure lol. I LOVE short and fluffy novels though, especially when its a slice of life or first love type of situation.

    I like tragic romance stories and star-crossed lovers.. so Hanahaki Disease, though I only ever see it on fanfictions. Love Across Battlelines. And self sacrifice for the loved one.
    But also childhood friends, it's nice to know that things develop from so long and not just instant date instant love.
    And accidental marriage

    Most often, I'd like it to be the female lead. But those are hard to come by.

    that trope where a character thought that the MC has romantic feelings for them, but it's actually just a misunderstanding.

    I love good abuse :blobpopcorn_cool:

    Not a trope but I love when the characters are mature and resolve misunderstandings quickly. It’s really refreshing.

    But a fave trope is when they already act like they’re dating but don’t know it? Like they’re just super close & everyone already thinks they’re together but when asked they’re just like “huh??what?? i love them but they would never see me that way.” Pining even though they’re practically dating already.

    Hmm... I guess... cancelling an arrange marriage/ betrothal/ engagement is always fertile ground for some entertaining drama.

    I don't know if it counts but I like the ones where the main couple is very cautious around each other. And by that I mean, very calculating of each other's every move. Like, they not even in love, they just like playing mind games and messing with each other.
    These ones are always fun to read.
