I do think this novel could have worked without the romance; however, I liked the way Elder's infatuation with Amy affected the story and his own major decisions. I think it added a little bit of a twist to an otherwise slightly predictable mystery. I loved Across the Universe, too, though. In regards to your question, I think romance is kind of key for most YA novels, since romance is so huge in real-life for teens, but I think a YA novel can be just as good, if not better, without any romance at all.

Oh! About Ren. I had a few complaints about him: 1. He often acted like Calla was something to be claimed, not a person who had emotions and might, in fact, not be in love with him. 2. He was hot and cold with Calla from the start. If she wants a little space, he completely ignores her. If she's into him, he's all over her instantly. 3. He uses her to make Shay angry. Even ignoring the fact that I liked Shay better in general, Calla shouldn't be a pawn in a competition for who's manlier. All that being said, I've got no problem with the love triangle; it makes for an interesting (and hot) story line, lol.

DFTBA,

Woot! Nerdfighters ftw! And I'm sure you'll love any John Green books you pick up- they're all great in my opinion. :)

Thanks! I'm still in shock.

Oh! I'm so team Jace too! Gotta go with team Ky for Matched, even though Xander seemed sweet and all.

DFTBA,
Caroline
