Move on over, 1989 — the year 2023 might be Taylor Swift’s best year yet.

On top of the recent release of her "1989 (Taylor’s Version)" studio album in late October, the singer-songwriter, 33, has also kept the heat going via her romance with Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce.

Well-known for writing her own heartfelt song lyrics about love and romance, the “Cruel Summer” singer has made an impact on fans, the music charts and even the literary world. A number of romance and YA authors have been directly inspired by Swift song titles when naming their books. Others just coincidentally have books that share their titles with Swift songs. Here are 17 that are worth checking out.

'‘Tis the Damn Season' by Kimi Freeman

This contemporary romance novel is directly inspired by Swift’s song from her evermore album. It follows the life of Aspen Moore, a star who has both fame and fortune, but not love itself. So when she’s entangled in a Hollywood scandal and returns to her hometown, the chemistry she feels with her first love is undeniable. Can she give up her original dream for “the best thing” she’s ever had?

“'‘Tis the Damn Season' has such a unique vibe and aesthetic compared to other songs I’ve listened to," author Kimi Freeman says. "There’s a clear second chance romance aspect to it, and this sort of ‘star-crossed lovers’ vibe which is obviously perfect for a romance. Like all of the other songs on folklore and evermore it really tells a story which is what called me to write this novel. The title perfectly encapsulates the feelings of lost love and angst during the holiday season, which both the song and novel have.”

'Begin Again' by Emma Lord

What happens when all your plans seemingly fall apart? This is what Andie Rose explores when her lifelong goal of being an iconic self-help figure is derailed in this YA romance novel, bearing the same name as Swift’s Red album song. There’s also an extra bonus, according to Amazon reviewer Amanda Uhls: “Emma Lord is a huge Taylor Swift fan. There are SO MANY hidden (and not so hidden - hello Begin Again) references in this book, it’s incredible that she fits them all in so seamlessly.”

"It is my personal mission to sneak in as many Taylor Swift references as I can in any novel I write," Lord added. "I think it’s safe to say that this time I got a little less sneaky about it."

'I Think He Knows' by Katie Bailey

Lana Mae is on a mission to rid herself of her impossible crush for “The Sexiest Smile in Hollywood” — which happens to belong to her best friend, Carter James Callahan. So of course, no one is more shocked to see the news that Carter is getting married to a mysterious fiancée. This rom-com novel of the same name as Swift’s Lover album song is not only filled with pop culture references to Taylor but also Harry Styles, The Gilmore Girls and Zac Efron.

Author Katie Bailey says she was directly inspired by Swift's Reputation and Lover albums while writing.

"I listened to both of these albums on repeat as I wrote, and the song 'I Think He Knows' just perfectly summed up those giddy feelings of being head over heels for someone, but doubting if the feeling is mutual, and all of the emotions that brings with it," Bailey says.

'Call It What You Want' by Alissa DeRogatis

Situationships, undefined labels and the challenges of moving on. This novel of the same title as Swift’s reputation album song promises all those themes and more as it follows the journey of former hopeless romantic Sloane Hart. When she begins to “date” the guarded Ethan Brady, they must confront whether the relationship is worth taking the risk or simply not meant to be. “I CONSUMED this book, couldn’t put it down,” wrote Amazon reviewer Hannah Stephens. “A lot of very insightful quotes throughout and tons of Taylor Swift quotes to make it all better. LOVE LOVE LOVE.”

Author Alissa DeRogatis says she chose the title for her debut novel because it's an "ode to all 'almost love' stories."

"One day while I was writing, I was listening to the 10-minute version of 'All Too Well' and my favorite line in that song is, 'Anytime now, he's gonna say it's love. You never called it what it was,'" DeRogatis explains. "It was at that moment that I realized that one line summed up the book I'd been writing about a heartbreaking situationship."

"Maybe your relationship wasn't conventional and didn't have a label or a title," DeRogatis adds. "Call it what you want — it was still a relationship."

'Long Story Short' by Serena Kaylor

To make a “Long Story Short,” (a nod to Swift’s evermore album song), Amazon reviewer Megan Lally describes this YA novel best: “If Taylor Swift sat down and wrote a YA novel about a bunch of theater kids at camp, filled it with angst and longing and a desire to belong, and then wrapped it in little snippets of laugh-out-loud humor, you’d get something close to the masterpiece that is 'Long Story Short.'”

'I Knew You Were Trouble' by Pip Fox
