I love how annoyed they'd get when Archer would read their minds haha. I also loved Archer's obsession with Olive Garden, It was so cute. I hope you enjoy Heir of Fire!

You did find a lot. I've heard great things about Celaena/Rowan and I can't wait to read Heir of Fire. KATY AND ARCHER *SOBS* I can't believe I forgot them! I was trying to think of someone from the Lux series, because subconsciously I think I remembered about Archer but UGH not in time. They are the best!! Their friendship is so cute and Archer really helps Katy when she's in a tough situation. I also love the banter between him and Daemon. Cinder and Thorne! How can I keep forgetting people from my favorite series?? I am a disappointment. <br />SO many great friendships on your list!!<br />Thanks - I always like it when I can see that I made someone really think about something or they enjoyed the topic I chose.

I never finished reading the Shatter Me trilogy because I saw how it ended and didn't like it so I just stopped after the first book but I loved how funny Kenji was. Roar was also my favorite in Under the Never Sky. His story was so heartbreaking. I agree that there's more emphasis and focus on romantic relationships but after seeing your topic, I sat down in front of my bookshelves and found some great platonic relationships:<br /><br />Celaena and Rowan from Throne of Glass series<br />Tessa and Magnus from The Infernal Devices trilogy<br />Katy and Archer from The Lux series<br />Mara and Jamie from Mara Dyer trilogy<br />Charlie and Xander from The Pledge trilogy<br />Ruby and Cole from The Darkest Minds trilogy<br />Sydney and Eddie from The Bloodlines series<br />Cinder and Thorne from The Lunar Chronicles<br />Harry and Hermione from Harry Potter<br />Alina and Nikolai from The Grisha trilogy<br />Ellie and Cadan from The Angelfire trilogy<br />Isla and Kurt from Isla and the Happily Ever After<br /><br />I think that's all I've got in my shelves.
