Amateur YA authors have written multiple novels about two people falling in love during the pandemic. However, one book seems to have taken the COVID-19 romance sub-genre to its very peak. Kissing the Coronavirus is a brand new novel that tells the story of a doctor who falls in love with the literal embodiment of the coronavirus itself. Here is how Twitter reacted to this strange new novel written by M.J. Edwards.
