I often think about The Ripped Bodice, and especially this week as I’ve started Emily Henry’s newest book, which I’m sure is causing more foot traffic at TRB. But hearing this now is really making me wish they were also a dog treat purveyor

I saw a dog waiting faithfully at the door when we were there; maybe that connects to the romance more than previously thought! I appreciated your paragraph about P&P world view, helpful in understanding why she ignores other things going on but it's not offensive.

I feel so sad for those dogs because The Ripped Bodice sisters could so easily solve this by having romance-novel-themed dog treats at the door for them and their owners.
