I'm Team Adam ALL the way. All the way. <br /><br />I'm so wary of love triangles (and what they do to me), I usually don't start book 2 until book 3 is out. Usually I can handle stopping at book 1, even if book 2 is already out.<br /><br />So glad I stumbled across your blog. Your reading taste so far is so much in line with mine. <3Stephhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16046088647444406115noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6652084782125897918.post-28562136604618145112013-02-10T18:49:54.038-05:002013-02-10T18:49:54.038-05:00Just you wait, Hannah!

But I guess all I really need to know is that the heroine is going to end up with her first love, right? Now I kind of want to go read a love triangle paranormal romance series or something and put this to work! (I'm also very curious to see if this can be applied to the finale of The Infernal Devices. I'm guessing it will be.).

Potential interlopers and decoys-- that's good stuff Lauren!<br /><br />Ok, the whole time I was reading this I kept think about a book I recently read (hasn't yet published) that is one of the rare 5% that breaks with the rules. Of course I don't want to tell you what it is because I want you to read it. I'll just say that it releases within the next couple of months and that I will be posting an early review on my blog SOON. Maybe that will narrow it down enough and pique your interest enough to give it a try:)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07026974627724672435noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6652084782125897918.post-42888354541737385022013-01-31T13:13:13.640-05:002013-01-31T13:13:13.640-05:00Love your post!

But even though, very few people actually end up with their first love in real life, in YA, most of the time first love = forever love. I think we have a similar series in mind here ;).
