Picking sides

November 4, 2007 by Ally Carter 1 Comment


I just…like literally two minutes ago…finished ECLIPSE and I have to wonder, would you guys think I was crazy if I kinda, sorta chose Jacob over Edward?

I know–craziness, right? But Jacob is flawed and passionate and Edward is cool perfection. Plus, I’m INCREDIBLY cold natured and I think having a soul mate whose natural body temperature is 100+ degrees might come in handy.

But Edward…very, very yummy.

Still, Jacob…technically still human.

It’s waaaaaaay too close to call.

Speaking of too close to call and choosing sides, I have to say a big THANK YOU to everyone who has embraced Zach so completely. I have to admit I was more than a little worried about that. I remember having very long pieces of email correspondence with my good friend Jennifer Lynn Barnes after she read an early draft of CROSS MY HEART AND HOPE TO SPY.

I can’t remember exactly, but they went something like this:

JEN: By the way, is it sick and wrong if I’m totally in love with Zach?

ME: You like Zach?!?!? Really? You’re not just saying that?

JEN: Totally. I mean, I liked Josh…but I liiiiiike Zach.

ME: But the girls! The girls like Josh. They’re probably going to hate any boy who isn’t Josh.

JEN: Yeah, but Zach is not a normal boy.

And he’s not. And Jen was right. Zach is uber complex and sorta yummy. (And…no, I’m not going to give away anything that will happen in the future books. Gallagher Girls are patient, remember?)

Anyway, thanks to everyone who has written to say that you liked him. I like him. And I’m glad to see I have good taste.

In other news tomorrow kinda, sorta marks my first day as a full-time writer. I have some work commitments later this month, but beginning tomorrow I’m going to be taking all of my accumulated vacation time so…it’s official. I’m unemployed and if you guys don’t buy books I might starve (no pressure or anything!)

have a great week!
