What do clean romance, closed door, fade-to-black, open door, low spice, and no spice actually mean? If romance book terms leave you feeling confused, you’re not alone.
In this episode of The Clean Romance Podcast, we’re joined by Rachel Parker of @ClosedDoorRomance for a fun game of Two Tropes and a Lie, followed by a deep dive into romance spice levels and reader expectations. Rachel breaks down popular romance terminology you’ll see on Bookstagram, BookTok, and Goodreads, explaining how these labels impact both readers and authors.
Whether you love clean romance, prefer closed-door love stories, or are just trying to understand the ever-changing romance genre, this conversation will help you read—and recommend—romance books with confidence.

Let’s just say FML and FMC are very different things.

In this episode, we break down the most common bookish terms you’ll spot on Bookstagram, BookTok, and Goodreads. If you’ve ever wondered what DNF or HFN actually mean—or you just love hearing us rant and rave about them—this one’s for you.

Plus, Tiffany shares her meet-cute, and when we say it was young love, we mean YOUNG. Prepare to swoon, giggle, and maybe even kick your feet… unless you’re completely heartless.
