Abstract
This thesis is focused on finding out if the romance novels today break or perpetuate the stereotypes about the genre, its heroines and the social gender stereotypes about women. It does that by giving an overview of the definition and the evolution of the genre itself, presenting the relationship of society and literature as the basis of comparison for the stereotypes. The analysis of the stereotypes is based on a sample of five romance novels written by American authors in the period from 2018 until 2022 and were chosen as the representatives from the sample of almost 300 novels. The analysis is done by the method of close reading of the five novels. Based on the results, conclusions were drawn and the original hypothesis was answered.
