And I've made my opinion about Throne of Glass before on here, it wasn't really my cup of tea, but I didn't think the love triangle was that bad.

You ma...That's such an awesome graphic Rachael! You make a great point, I got so annoyed with how overdone they were becoming, but when done right--love triangles can be a great plot device. I agree with all of your points but especially the 'strong lead' part. It's just SO annoying when the main protagonist is agonising over two boys for the whole book. BORING.<br />One love triangle I like atm is Caleana, Chaol and Dorian from the Throne of Glass series by Sarah J. Maas. The love triangle isn't the focal point of the whole freaking book and it evolves with the characters. The thing is, I love both of the guys and don't want either to be heart-broken :''( I hope they all end up happy!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03980656592819266422noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4078099649003893015.post-15200083507317279182014-01-10T11:58:44.591-08:002014-01-10T11:58:44.591-08:00I didn't know Gone Girl is becoming a film!

Glad you enjoyed them. I know Gone Girl is becomming a film so I'll probably read it before I see it.<br />I love the fault in our stars so much! I can't wait to see that film adaptation as well! Game of thrones looks pretty lengthy to me and puts me off but my friend is reading it and adores it.

I really recommend them all. I've added your recommendations to my to read list.

Like Ruby said though, it's the best love triangle out there and the only one I can tolerate. I hope you continue with them. I love The Geek Girl series, it's so funny and quirky. It's like my fun uplifting read because they always leave me smiling. I loved GG so it's shame you didn't enjoy Hiest Society, I haven't read it yet but I read a bit and I get what you mean about Kat. Thanks for your lovely comment on my Blogoversary post.

It's ...Do not fear about the TID love triangle! It's literally the only love triangle I can stand & that's because it is done beautifully! Clockwork Angel was actually my least favourite of the three, with Clockwork Prince being my favourite… I cannot even begin to think about Clockwork Princess – a book which brutally ripped my heart into tiny pieces! It's funny though, I really disliked TMI but looooooved this series. :)<br /><br />Oh and Heist Society was a fun book for me too… I guess I wasn't really expecting much from it, so it left me surprised. I haven't read the sequel though and I'm not sure if I will. I mean the series is just light and fluffy, not life-affecting, and I'm in the mood for quite heavy reads at the moment.Ruby // Rustled Pageshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01497768837938772551noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4078099649003893015.post-38484638860569393272013-09-24T13:30:28.207-07:002013-09-24T13:30:28.207-07:00The film equivalent of a UKYA books?

You've definitely convinced me to buy this, it sounds absolutely brilliant. I usually don't go for historical novels so I'm glad to know that someone who also doesn't, was still able to enjoy it. I love that the 9 year old protagonist still managed to become a favourite of yours. I truly must read this!
