Back to my earlier point... for shannon, it might have been fun to write a main character like her (straight and white), but like I said, it shouln't be what is FUN for the author to write, a good book includes what is FUN for the readers to read. I've only read a couple books where the main character was black but the author was white (and usually only when there is more than one point of view). We need more of that!

Also back to another earlier point that I made (before I was logged in), I also always thought it strange that the Song family could somehow still be 100% Asian when I was reading the series, without mixing them with any other skin tone at one point or another. If race doesn’t exist, then the match lists shouldn’t be biased against biracial couples. There are actually more black humans than there are white humans in the world, so why isn’t this the same for elves?

Or rather, why isn’t everyone a blend of every race the earth has to offer. If the elves have been around long enough to stop every species that has ever existed from going extinct, then billions of years after their creation, every elf should be a mix between every skin tone. How in the world did the Vacker family the Sencen family and the Disney family, along with many many others, remain pure white if every time they marry, there is a more than 75% chance that they would marry someone of a different race? This I simply do not understand.
