Top Ten Trends You Would Like to See More or Less of
Less
1. Girls falling in love with supernatural boys. I'm tired of the same thing. I want something different. Let the girl be the supernatural one or maybe even both the boy and the girl be supernatural.
2. Love triangles. Why can't there just be one love interest?
3. Characters instantly falling in love. I hate this. I like it when the love in a story is developed correctly. You know, with time and special details that make me swoon.
4. Parents who aren't around. Why are parents so clueless in some of these books. I wish the parents were involved a little bit more. Also, I want there to be siblings in books as well. I'm done with only child protagonist.
5. Whiny characters. Especially teenage whiny characters. I don't want to hear that! As If I didn't hear enough of that at school!
6. Books with series that never seem to end. *cough* House of night *cough*. I think three of four books in a series is enough.
7. Broody, angsty love interests. I'm done with it. I want to see more funny, sweet boys in books.
More
8. Alternative POV'S. Its so much more interesting to read a story this way. I feel like I understand things more. Like for example why to characters love each other.
9. Guys who are funny and sweet and who don't hate themselves. No more angsty boyfriends.
10. Amazing book covers.
SO with you on less love triangles. I feel like there's one in every book I read these days.

Fantastic list. We have a few in common. I want to have more funny, less angsty boys too. I'd also love to see different POVs and less in first person.
