A Gentlemen's Guide to Rom-Coms

Pride and Prejudice, her third written and second published novel, is the true-north of the rom-com genre. It is everything most rom-com's aspire to be: witty, romantic, thoughtful, and full of the feels.


We would be hard pressed to send you anywhere else if you want the perfect example of the form.
