Okay, so I got three books today. I was excited to read them, so I read the descriptions, trying to decide which to read first. Ha, ha. They were all the same. All about a "normal" girl meeting this oh-so-attractive guy and being "unable to resist." Yeah, the descriptions varied, but they all went along those lines. I can't believe how similar they are. I'm reading Die for me right now. It seemed like the most interesting out of the three. I guess it's okay, but what is up with those life-changing, supernatural, and fatally attractive guys? Come on. Is that the only storyline romance fantasy writers can follow these days? No, it's not. Has anyone else noticed this? Or do you have another annoyance to add in?

Twilight sequel? Now you mention it, I've noticed. I guess the idea is popular and currently is in rage of new trend. I have no comment, but I hope after this idea dies and more romance fiction coming up in future, doesn't talks about normal girl fallen in love with vampires or superheroes!

Do you want to know what I hate about these plots? All the people are sooooo beautiful,sooooo rich, sooo young (18 isn't the time to have a marrage!) and sooooo complicated. Why can't it be the butt-ugly 30 year old homeless people having a relationship? Seriously people, life doesn't revolve around the beautiful and rich. It revolves around the sun. 'Nuff said.

Haha, according to an article on young adult novels: "Any YA novel worth its salt has romance, whether it's supernatural or supernatural. Sparkling vampires and sexy angels, anyone?"
I hope that this changes, because I am not a big fan of romance as it is, but now it's all strong-attractive-powerful-abnormal romance. Ugh. Please change!
