How about 50k to 100k with a 100 shelf minimum?

As requested Popular_Romance_on_Goodreads_with_between_50000_and_100000_ratings has been created. I'll do some additional seeding in a bit, but it is yours to play with.

hmm. I'm almost thinking this list should split 100k-200k. and 200k and above...

How did NICU II and Victoria's Incestuous Romance by Kenneth Jarrett Singleton get to the top of this list? It has less than 300 ratings.

Six times someone logged in to a goodreads account and went on this list and voted for that book. Goodreads does not enforce list criteria. Instead voluntary librarians do. And neither librarians nor list creators get notified when people add books to lists. Lists are not moderated in any fashion.

But if you ever see something like this on a list, just call it out in comments. And a librarian will usually quickly take care of it.

Very simple question, do you know of any LGBT romance books? Do any of them have 100,000 ratings? Are they already on this list? If they aren't, why don't you add them.

Also, there is another list for Romance books with 50,000 to 99,999 ratings

lgbt romance is not an especially popular tag - its top books have only 13 tags.

But lgbt is a much more popular tag but doesn't clearly indicate whether the book is romance.

So looking at at the lgbt list, the first book on that list was Simon vs. the Homo Sapiens Agenda. It has 3701 tags as lgbt but it has 2880 tags as romance. And therefore should be on this list. And of course it already is. Its 132nd out of 206. Feel free to vote for it - or not.

Worrying: Howl’s Moving Castle seems to have lost its romance tag. I suspect shenanigans, but since they got rid of the Feedback group, I can't actually ask.

A heads up - I intend to change the criteria of this list to require a minimum of 200,000 ratings and a minimum of 1500 shelves as romance

A new list will be created that will be from 100,000 to 199,999 ratings and also a minimum of 1500 shelves as romance.

Another new list will be created that will be > 100,000 ratings but less than 1500 shelves as romance.
