Thanks for linking to Elizabeth Vail's piece, Renay - I'd missed it and it's excellent. I discovered her blog sort of recently and I've been enjoying it a ton. And yeah, I really really hope someone will do a study about ALL the YA soon, because we need that data badly.

I almost linked to the friend-love comic myself, but then I worried it would be creepy. This little anecdote probably tells you everything there is to know about me ;)
