Lavi asked P.C. Cast:

I really enjoyed reading your serie House of night,but why is Zoey like sort of I-am-confused-I-like-them-both? I find it difficult to accept that she is SOconfused. I mean it is sort of unfair toward the boys.But I understand that is probably how it should be to catch the readers interest Why was it vampires and not werewolf?

P.C. Cast Hi Lavi,
Zoey's not confused. She's young. She should be dating different guys, and in the culture of the HoN women aren't judged for being real about their feelings. No, it's not unfair toward any boy. They should be dating different girls, too. They're too damn young to commit to one person forever. It has zero to do with getting the attention of readers. In my books young women are allowed choices. Sadly, in real life young women are too often judged for dating more than one guy, even when guys are rarely judged for it. Your question is an example of that misogynistic ideology.

I never considered werewolves. HoN was a vamp school from the very beginning. The two aren't interchangeable.
