Your mention of Menolly got me thinking about my experience with the original Dragonriders series. I was in love with Lessa and wanted to be Jaxom...and then as a late teen I came to the conclusion that almost all of her male characters were douchebags and Lessa was the first character that "Petra'd" on me. I didn't see it for what it was at the time though.
I keep thinking about doing a second paring of the books, because I don't think I'm ever going to re-read some of the things I re-read a dozen times as a teen.
