I can handle that kind of stuff in literature when I know it's probably going to happen. But I was blindsided by this. I mean, okay, she fell in love in book 1. But there wasn't any indication that it was going to lead to marriage and a baby! There are those of us who never marry or have children. We exist! We're not many, but we are here. I just want to see that represented in fiction for once.

And yes I'm still very young. Possibly too young to know what I'm talking about? I never fantasized about my wedding, or imagined myself married with kids. When I was little and I pictured my future, I was always single. I had tons of animals, dogs and cats and horses, and a nice house and everything, but I never imagined myself with a partner. Maybe that doesn't really mean much, but it seems like every other little girl planned her dream wedding and had a dream husband and all that. *shrug* Maybe I will meet Mr. Right one day and be married, but it will be an act of fate and not through my own doing.
