Title: An Abundance of Katherines Author: John Green Summary : From Amazon : When it comes to relationships, Colin Singleton's type happens to be girls named Katherine. And when it comes to girls named Katherine, Colin is always getting dumped. Nineteen times, to be exact. He's also a washed-up child prodigy with ten thousand dollars in his pocket, a passion for anagrams, and an overweight, Judge Judy-obsessed best friend.

ReplyDeleteI agree, love triangles can be annoying and the insta-love is usually ridiculous.
ReplyDeleteOh yes, insta-love with at least one person or more. It is very, very over-done and usually not done well! So I completely agree! Thanks for sharing and I hope you have a great weekend! I'm an old follower!

Insta-love is so cliche! lol. I want to feel the connection between the characters. Maybe they can begin with a friendship...I mean that's more believable. :)

Insta-love irks me as do most love triangles. If they-re written well you can understand why the MC is confused about who she has the real 'love' feelings for, but mostly they're just a pile of annoying-ness!
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by, new follower. :)
Yes, I totally agree. And it seems like most people agree... These are very popular answers! We all appear to feel the same way about this stuff! :)
ReplyDeleteYes! I couldn't agree more, I brought these 2 points up in my post as well. A love triangle can be done well, but it's overdone and it does totally ruin the love the MC has for whoever he/she ends up choosing in the end. Anyways, thanks for sharing and for stopping by my FFF New follower via GFC & NB :)
