Ally’s comments from the The Wide Web of Friends in YA Books group.

We are the same person lol!

I put all ya books that are set in a realistic, current setting (with no fantasy or dystopian elements) as contemporary novels! Basically ya romance fiction books!

Love is an Open Door - Frozen Soundtrack
(love is an open doooooor haha)

Yayyy!!! You definitely should!!!

The Darkest Minds by Alexandra Bracken
Nineteen Minutes by Jodi Picoult
Hate List by Jennifer Brown
Thirteen Reasons Why by Jay Asher
Before I Fall by Lauren Oliver
Between by Jennifer Warman

(TFiOS and Allegiant are the only books to make me ugly cry!)

Should I read The Coldest Girl in Coldtown by Holly Black?

I don't know if it is under hyped, but All Our Yeaterdays by Cristin Terrill was one of my favorite books last year and not enough people have read it (meaning not every single person lol)! It was AMAZING!

It hurt me the most to finish Harry Potter, Vampire Academy, and Divergent. Most of all Harry Potter!

I know!!! I have been waiting FOREVER for that book! Stephanie Perkins is the best at cute contemporary novels that are not just fluff (if tht makes sense haha)!

Too many to list! But my favorites include:

- Four/Tris (Divergent)
- Jace/Clary (TMI)
- Hazel/Augustus (TFIOS)
- Sydrian (Bloodlines)
- Romitri & Dragozera (VA)
- Mara/Noah (Mara Dyer)
- Anna/Etienne (Anna and the French Kiss)
- Tessa/Will (TID)
- Ruby/Liam (Darkest Minds)
- Chaol/Celaena (Throne of Glass)

Definitely! I loved how Katy had a book blog (even though I could never figure out how she had time to read and review books lol)

(Let me know if this topic is somewhere else in the group)

Here is a place to discuss your favorite contemporary novels! I always have to read read a cute, happy contemporary book after a super sad dystopian (I read about 10 after Allegiant). I am obsessed with them and always looking for recommendations!

My favorites include:
Anna and the French Kiss by Stephanie Perkins
Fangirl by Rainbow Rowell
Lola and the Boy Next Door by Stephanie Perkins
This Is What Happy Looks Like by Jennifer E. Smith
Just One Day by Gayle Forman
The Summer I Became a Nerd by Leah Rae Miller
The Lonely Hearts Club by Elizabeth Eulberg

Rose Hathaway (Vampire Academy)
Em (All Our Yesterdays-Cristin Terrill)
Hazel Grace (TFiOS-John Green)
Tris (Divergent)
Katy (Obsidian-Jennifer L. Armentrout)
Anna (Anna and the French Kiss-Stephanie Perkins)
Tessa (TID)
Clary (TMI)
Harper Price (Rebel Belle)
Madelyne (The Summer I Became a Nerd-Leah Rae Miller)

Good one!!! Love Sia and the Catching Fire soundtrack!

The Moon Song by Karen O.

Me!!! It is AWESOME!!! Reminded me of Buffy the Vampire Slayer lol

@Mahnoor Torched by Andrea Colt is an awesome cutesy read that I found on kindle for $3 (it is an indie book)..I wish more people knew about it!

It reminded me of the Lux series and Alienated by Melissa Landers! And of course Roswell!

I am so excited/nervous/terrified for tonight's episode!!!

Yeah I'm finding it hard to believe that no one has figured out that that is not Elena. I get Damon not knowing because he always expects people to leave him and now he is too busy spiraling to notice, but Stefan or Caroline should have already figured it out!! This season started off really good, but I'm not loving it right now!

Books I usually recommend (that people may not give a chance or not know about for some reason):
The Lux Series by Jennifer L Armentrout
Mara Dyer Series by Michelle Hodkin
Anna and the French Kiss by Stephanie Perkins
Vampire Academy Series by Richelle Mead
