Abstract
The New Adult genre is, along with Young Adult, one of the fastest growing genres in literature right now and, because of its huge audience, it is important that the works of this genre portray healthy and positive romantic relationships. Looking from a feminist perspective, these novels often portray relationships in a negative way, leading to problematic messages being spread, which romanticize and glamorize the wrongful treatment of women in these novels. This paper will discuss different tropes in New Adult literature that are either direct or indirect cause of various toxic behaviours in romantic relationships. The paper will focus on examples from two New Adult novels, November 9 by Collen Hoover and Beautiful Disaster by Jamie McGuire.
