      Currently reading "The One". America is the WORST protagonist, but I need to know what dumb thing she is going to say so that I will have another reason to complain about her. The selection series is like a late 90's romantic comedy. The characters play a stereotype, the protagonist is "too pure to be real", the jokes aren't funny but they're funny that they're not funny and the love interest only has eyes for the protagonist. You know they're going to end up together, but you still want to watch anyway because it is such trash. haha!!!

      I was so surprised at how much I loved this series because I never read romance kind of stuff. But it has just enough dystopian and conspiracy themes to make it appealling beyond the romance, and that's part of why I think it was so good.

    I've always sort of felt like The Princess Diaries series was sort of "trashy." I was so obsessed with those books as a teenager and even freaked out when Meg Cabot came out with a new novel for the series featuring adult Mia two years ago. Actually, most of Meg Cabots books (I've read most all of her books and serieses) are sort of trashy and I adore all of them!

    The book series that saved my life. Hands down the mortal instruments. No other book affected me like that. I was going through a really rough time and alllll I did was read. I was like 13 or 14 and it was thanksgiving and my mom bought me City of bones and I fell in love. I struggle with depression and anxiety so I read so much at this time (I still read a lot ) like I was in 7th grade and my school tested us on how fast we read. And I was reading 3-5 pages a minute (still kinda do) because I get so obsessed with the series. I will never not have love for Cassie Clare. She really saved me. Also the twilight series played a big role in my development as an early teenager. So when I hear ppl say they don't like it I'm shocked because yes it corny and cringey but it's such beautiful work

      Aleena Tanveer, there's characters that are introduced in vampire academy that appear in Bloodlines, and it would spoil the Vampire Academy series if you decided to read it later.Sydney who is the main character in Bloodlines has a huge part in book #4 of vampire academy series. It's my favorite of the first series. I mean The author does write the Bloodlines series in a way to remember what happened in the Vampire academy series with returning characters. I'd say read Vampire Academy series first if you can. 😁😊😁

    My favourite trashy YA books are deeefinitely the House of Night books by PC and Kristin Cast. They're just a lovely bit of easy, fun, infuriating YA fluff. There are so many love triangles and squares and octagons I've literally lost count, they're a weird new take on vampires because duh they came out around the same time as Twilight, the main characters are all so simultaneously badass and stupid and you can't help but love them, Aphrodite is my absolute favourite 'bitchy best friend' character from any book ever, the main villain is actually incredible and really well written, the main character has this awesome Grandma that reminded me of my Nana, and there are so many real legends and folk stories woven into it in really cool ways and I just... *sighs contentedly* I love these books. If you're a person who still enjoys Twilight, I can pretty much guarantee that you'll enjoy these too. And the authors are busy writing a new sequel series set 5 years (I think) after the end of the last book and I'm so freaking excited :3

    As soon as I saw the title I thought of The Selection Trilogy and the Lux series. Such good books! I was so addicted them when I read them back in 2014.
    I love trashy YA. I kinda consider everything Jennifer L Armentrout books as trashy YA. You should pick up the Covenant series by her- it's really like Vampire Academy!

    Wasn't sure how to class it before but daughter of smoke and bone is my absolute fav trashy ya and if you havnt read it do go check it out. I really love how it pulls together the similaritys there are in good and bad and how just because someone is 'good' it doesn't mean they do good things.

    I love how unashamed you are to love these books! For years I felt so embarrassed to read these kinds of books but they're just the best kind of books. These are the kinds of book that had me crying at 4am in the morning when I had to get up early for school the next day, and I would still be thinking about them a few weeks after I had finished them 😂 love your videos!! 💞

    The "to all the boys I've loved before" series is so so good. I personally didn't feel a need for the third one and it took me a week to get through the 3rd one but the first and second I inhaled. I LOVED THEM.
    And I feel like they do differ a lot from the movie in terms of how characters feel and act.
    So def give it a go it's so so freaking nice!

    I would've said the Pretty Little Liar series by Sara Shapard. No, not the TV show, but the books. The show is so totally different than the books, and I don't like that, so I stopped watching after season 3. I would have to say that anything by Sara Shepard, really, is on my "trashy YA" list, though. She always writes the cliches with a twist. But I don't care, and that's what I come for! xD

    Ahh yes, the selection series. I read a book a day and I can’t even explain to you how frustrated I was with America but I still pulled for her and Maxon. Soooo good. It also is kind of sentimental for me because it marked a growth in my reading taste. It sparked an interest in me for more dystopian novels and such. The selection series will definitely always be on the top of my list.

    I'd say TMI is pretty trashy. Sure the story is well-developed and interesting, but the focus is on the romance between Clary and Jace and their stupid decisions. Don't get me wrong, I love TMI, but they're still pretty trashy.
    Makes me wonder if there's "trashy" stuff targeted at dudes. The stuff you've mentioned on this list has never interested me (though tbh I'm only interested in romance stories if they're gay), and I doubt many guys would consider them. Maybe _Ready Player One_? Haven't read it but I've heard that it like glorifies the male gamer types.
