I was never the greatest fan of George, but I can see the appeal. I remember when I was in middle school how badly I wished I was Alanna. Seriously.

And yeah, but he was sort of pressured in the Kel situation. BUT I love how he matured, and how important Alanna is to him and vice versa.

Alanna is an amazing character, and you're spot on in your observations and commentary on her in the first book! She's pretty kick-ass for a heroine, and there's no one quite like here.<br /><br />ALSO. I didn't know you were a twin. But now that I do, I officially pronounce you ALANNA. (And I can do that as a #PierceFest co-host!)Alexa S.https://www.blogger.com/profile/13185723439360170259noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4932292247636823526.post-4888055947848932792013-05-02T14:56:58.038-04:002013-05-02T14:56:58.038-04:00See, I started with Alanna, and then Daine, and th...See, I started with Alanna, and then Daine, and then Aly, and though I love all three of them, Alanna will always be number one because she WAS number one.<br /><br />AND YES. SEX POSITIVITY. This series is the BEST for that. And exactly what you said about the right one and the experiences and yes. Thrice yes.GillyBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03622344092774777709noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4932292247636823526.post-41608587042319962722013-05-02T13:59:16.022-04:002013-05-02T13:59:16.022-04:00What do I love about Alanna?

I was just so charmed by her daughter, Aly, but that's skipping ahead a bit. <br /><br />My favorite thing about the Alanna series is how sex positive it is, though obviously that's not really a thing in book one. I read them all in a row, so I really can't distinguish one book from another; it's just the series as a whole to me. Anyway, I think it's awesome that Alanna gets to have sex with several guys without ever being shamed for it. And I love how she winds up getting with the right one when the time comes, but she needed those other experiences for her and her man to really work. :)Christinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00370486039531015541noreply@blogger.com
