About My Collection

"When I look at my personal favorites for 2021 (and for every year really), there's one consistent through-line in my listening: a slow-burn love story. These love stories all don't end positively, but they all for sure have an unbearably delicious buildup to that fireworks moment when our main character realizes their crush likes them back. These couplings are worth the wait!" —Editor Melissa B.

About Editor Melissa B.

As a devotee to escapism, especially the magical kind, Melissa's listening obsessions revolve around romance, YA, and fantasy. Give her a shout-out @MelissaBendixen if you've found a listen that is a Venn diagram of all those things; she be eternally grateful.
