It doesn't have to be huge stories or anything, but when I see minor characters in books doing nothing really but supporting the main characters romantic crisis or whatever, it drives me nuts. Life isn't like that, especially in high school, and it makes it feel so much more authentic to show other people dealing with things, too.

Have you read Jellicoe Road? That manages to weave in two time periods and bring them together, and I loved it.Kate Fallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12856887940900664692noreply@blogger.com
