The porn addicts on TikTok would disagree. Porn books are insanely popular and many people seem to only read those.

    I wouldn't be so quick to dismiss all romance/romantic as porn. Some of them are well written with a touch of the forbidden for an elevated experience.

    Not saying there aren't bad pornographic books but dismissing a whole genre for some puritanical reason also seems ill fitted.
