Show Notes

Sales of romance novels were up in 2022, with a surge of about 52 percent for sales of print copies, according to Publishers Weekly. That's despite an overall dip in book sales last year.
Still, there's a longstanding social stigma against romance novels, as they're often written off as frivolous, or even shameful.
NPR's Juana Summers visits a group of readers who are loud and proud about their love for the genre.
In participating regions, you'll also hear a local news segment to help you make sense of what's going on in your community.
