I get turned off from YA for the overwhelming angst and hot blooded romance. Too fast, too much. YA has a tendency to be as angsty and the romance too quick. Urban Fantasy now is all cookie-cutter YA/NA attitude. But, I've read some really good stories in both genre's. Awesome you still love your first series.<br /><br />Your energy and enthusiasm has worn me out, lol.
