I hate the miscommunication and accidental pregnancy trope. What about you?


message 2: by giuliana (new)

giuliana Same as you, and add toxic relationships and romanticize weird stuff in it🙄


message 3: by Liv (new)

Liv I hate the big age gap trope! Like your bf could be you father!!


Dreamcatcher (HIATUS) Age gap

Dead lover(usually because the person just can not get over them)

miscommunication (unless it's a comedy/satire)

other characters made stupid to make the protagonist look smart

Cheating

Kids who're written like they were friends with Dumbledore or smth

When Strong female characters = Just Men with tits and She/her pronouns

Mary Sue/Gary Sue protagonist


Marta (taylor's version) | 32 comments A big age gap

Accidentally pregnancy

Miscommunication

When the author ruins a character just to make the main interest look better and for the main character to finish him off (it's not a trop at all but it's very common for some reason)

message 16: by evie *s-ia* (new)

evie *s-ia* Age Gap
Miscommunication
Pregnancy (unless its in an epilogue and they are married with kids. Like i can do that. Or like they have to take care of a kid for some reason, and end up falling in love. an enemies to lovers thing. This i feel like would make a good book.)
BUT I DONT WANT TO READ ABOUT HOW GETTING HER PREGNANT SUDDENLY FIXES ALL UR PROBLEMS.
Cheating/second chance
toxic lovers

I just realised that the worst trope has to be incest. Second is Teacher X Student. Everyone will agree with me for the first one at least!
