Enclave

I think I may be sick of female YA protagonist. These books all seem to be getting fairly formulaic to me. The young heroine faces hardship with the help of a slightly older, much more worldly young man. He will be dark and brooding (even if he's fair haired and tanned) because he is misunderstood by his friends and peers (such as they are. He is usually some kind of outsider in his society also.) Together these two "unlikely" partners will solve all of societies problems with their pluckiness and fortitude against overwhelming odds.

As far as Enclave goes, it was an enjoyable, if ultimately forgettable YA tale. Good enough so I will be getting to the rest of the series at some point.

Seriously someone please point me to a YA genre series with a male protagonist. I think I need a dose of testosterone!
