Unnecessary love triangles
did you mean the entire teen fiction section
OH LOOK!
TEEN FICTION!
WITHOUT
ANY OR UNNECESSARY
LOVE TRIANGLES
IN THEM.
I DIDN’T KNOW THERE WERE SO MANY!
Stop hating on and generalizing teen fiction. They are great sources of reading material if you just take your time and choose wisely.
Can I have teen fiction WITHOUT any romance, period? (Or very little… but is not focused on as a plot point)
That would excellent.
I’m super picky about my romances, I generally find most fictional ones to be uncomfortable or problematic. Looking for a good YA without it is difficult, not impossible, but certainly difficult. ESPECIALLY if it’s female lead. I actually actively avoid most female-lead YA novels for this very reason. Sad but true…
Any suggestions?
(As a side note, The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time was a good book without pivotal romance, but I don’t think it strictly counts as YA. Also, Le Guin’s Earthsea novels dodge the romance trap. LOVE those books.)
