Have we mentioned how much fun we had playing Romanceopoly last year? We've been making our TBRs for this year's challenge but thought we'd take some time to help out our fellow players with our recommendations for some of the prompts. There are also a few that we're struggling with, so leave us a rec in the comments if you can help.
