    I AM ON THE HUNT NOW cause a discussion about avatar got my brain thinking!

    SO: like you know how in percy jackson, harry potter, avatar, etc, they always have this cliche trio of BOY BOY GIRL? Two boys and a girl? and then at the end of the book or in the series it's always like, the main guy with the main girl, or sometimes the main girl with the sidekick guy (hermione/ron)?

    WELL it'd be a nice change of pace if they actually had the two GUYS get with each other instead of the typical boy girl straight pairing of obviousness! i would LOVE to see such a bold move as aang sokka, or harry ron, for instance, in YA books or movies or shows – but we're probably never going to get there in my lifetime in TV shows… especially teen/kids shows. which sucks!

    ARE THERE any fantasy YA books or anything where this happens? cause i can't think of any who'd ever take the risk. 🙁 like i can't even think of a single one that ever has done this and i've read a lot of them!

    but i think it'd be pretty amazing rep and all you know? like it's some typical YA fantasy thing like those series's, but it just ends with a guy guy romance instead of the guy girl one everyone is expecting cause it's so cliche and normalized?

    so yeah does anyone actually know if any YA book/series exists that does this? is there even ONE…?

      Carry On by Rainbow Rowell… sort of? The triangle is never all THAT convincing, but it is present.

      The Buried and the Bound by Rochelle Hassan! I found this book very enjoyable. It fits this almost exactly.

    3. The raven cycle kind of?? It’s more like a group of 5…w 4 guys and 1 girl but it should suit your fancy if you are looking for a rec
