At All About Romance, we’ve built our reputation on honest, thoughtful engagement with the genre, but that only matters if we’re meeting the needs of the people who come here. Romance has changed, and so have readers. This survey is our way of finding out whether we’re keeping pace with that change. We want to know what draws you to the site, what you skip over, what you wish we covered, and how we might do a better job of making AAR a place worth returning to. If you have five minutes and a few opinions, we’d be grateful.

For almost three decades, we’ve written about the books that made us laugh, sigh, roll our eyes, and, sometimes, want to throw them against the wall….
