I saw this over on Books for Thought (go check her out!) and thought it looked fun. OTP, for those that don’t know = One True Pair.
1. An a unpopular OTP that you ship
Clary & Simon from The Mortal Instruments series. I felt bad for Simon that Clary led him on for so long. At the end of the day, though, I think Simon is too good for Clary, so I guess I don’t ship it all that much. But I couldn’t think of anything else.
2. An OTP that you didn’t ship but now you do
Warner and Juliette from the Shatter Me series. The first book was obviously Adam Forever, but book two totally changed that.
3. Your most hated OTP
Hayley and Bryce from Blackmail Boyfriend. Hayley is a complete psycho and needs therapy, not a boyfriend.
4. An OTP that took way too long to get together
Jennifer and Anthony from The Last Letter from your Lover. It took decades.
5. Your favourite non-canon OTP
Cricket and Anna from the Anna and the French Kiss series. Cricket is my favorite and he deserves much better than Lola. And while I do like Anna and St. Claire together (once he finally dumped his girlfriend), I always thought she and Cricket would work.
6. Your favourite BROTP
The Raven Boys, hands down.
7. An OTP you adored in the books but not as much in the movies or tv adaptation
Sookie and Eric from the Sookie Stackhouse Series/True Blood. They were a major thing for many of the books, but barely a thing in the show (though I never saw the last two or three seasons of the show).
8. A popular OTP that no matter how hard you tried you just can’t ship it
Cole and Ali from The White Rabbit Chronicles. I just can’t even. I’m on the third book right now and every part I read that’s about their relationship makes me want to throw my Nook. I don’t think I’m going to be able to finish this series (so if anyone wants to give me a spoiler on how it all ends, I’m all ears!)
9. Your favourite LGBT + OTP
Simon and Baz from Carry On.
10. Your all time favourite OTP
Kami and Jared from The Lynbun Legacy series
Cinder and Kai from The Lunar Chronicles
I tag anyone who would like to participate.
Ahh it makes me sad that you don’t like Cole and Ali. They’re a recent love for me. But good picks!
I liked them in the first book, but grew a little wary of them in the second book. And now in the third book they just drive me crazy. But I think I’m in the minority opinion about that! Have you read the whole series yet? I want to know what happens but I probably won’t finish the book before it expires from the library.
I’ve read the first three. I’m not sure I’m interested in book four because it’s more of a side book really. I had moments where I hated Cole but I dunno he’s just such a sweet guy that I can’t help but love him.
Can you tell me what happens in book three? I’m at the part where they’re in a warehouse and just found out Collins died and they’re fighting some zombies. Who else dies by the end? How do they win against Anima? Does Cole keep his “wait until Ali is 18 resolution” ?
I don’t want to ruin it for you! But I can tell you that one other member of their group dies. It’s pretty sad actually. Ali ends up going into Anima to try and destroy them and I don’t think Cole waits until Ali is 18.
Haha ok. I probably won’t end up finishing it, but I might! Tsk tsk Cole! Jailbait! Haha
Haha read the summary for book four on GoodReads. It has a spoiler for who does 😉
Kami and Jared, I think I shipped them before I even read the first book. Raven Cycle is such a great example of many complicated yet essential friendships.
Kami and Jared will always be one of my favorites. I just love them!
