Romantic Comedy

Whether you’re a romantic at heart or searching for a comedic escape, the best rom-com books like Funny Story and The Love Hypothesis deliver the spark, laughs and serotonin boost you’re after. From slow-burn enemies-to-lovers romances to awkward first kisses between friends, let Abby Jimenez, Hannah Grace or Emily Henry make you believe in love.

Find your next light read in the Rom-Com section. Rom-Coms, or Romantic Comedies, are slice-of-life stories leaning that live at the cross-section of humor and romantic themes. Not every romance that is funny is automatically a Rom-Com. There are certain elements that make Rom-Com unique, including the comedy coming directly from the romance itself, a near-guaranteed happy ending and a high probability of screwball characters.

You can find some of the most popular authors in this space, such as Ali Hazelwood, Casey McQuiston and Emily Henry, or go straight for a can’t-miss title like Beach Read, You, Again or Do Your Worst.

Rom-Com books are popular in both the adult and YA space, with crossover between the two. In the YA space, you can’t go wrong with Lynn Painter, or see what the genre is all about in Say You'll Remember Me by Abby Jimenez
