How is this Romance ranking calculated?

We count how many chapters readers actually open, then rank 100 Romance novels by total reads since we started tracking. Nothing here is paid placement or editor-picked — the order comes entirely from reading activity.

How often does the Romance ranking update?

The snapshot is recomputed every day at 03:00 UTC. The all-time board therefore shifts daily, and the ▲▼ arrows next to each novel show how far a title has moved since the previous period.

Are all these Romance novels free to read?
