User blog:PurplePassion20/List of Firsts in Choices

Almost each book/series introduces something new (excluding the first three books that were released when Choices began). The TBAs are things that I can see happening in the future but have yet to happen.


 * Rules of Engagement: Chronologically the first series with multiple points of view throughout (The Crown and The Flame starts as a "dual lead" between Dom and Kenna, then becomes "multiple POV" in books 2 and 3). Also chronologically the first series where the MC has a default name ("Emily" from The Freshman didn't have the default name at first, only in later books).
 * Endless Summer: First "gender of choice lead" series and first series with the "relationship system".
 * LoveHacks: First series where each chapter ends with a preview for the next chapter (along with the name of the next chapter) and first Comedy-themed book.
 * Haunting of Braidwood Manor: First standalone book and first horror-themed book.
 * The Royal Romance: Chronologically the first series to use strong language (specifically, Drake uses the word "bullshit").
 * Hero: First book with a non-human MC (and first book with a superhero theme).
 * High School Story: First series with a non-binary character.
 * It Lives: First series where the main characters can die (including the MCs), first series with content warnings and first series with a transgender character.
 * Red Carpet Diaries: First series in which the MC is a celebrity.
 * Perfect Match: First Sci-Fi themed series.
 * Bloodbound: First Vampire-themed series.
 * America's Most Eligible: First Reality TV themed book.
 * Desire and Decorum: First Historical Fiction series.
 * Across The Void: First book to take place entirely in space (and as such, it's the first book where there are no human characters at all). Also, it's the first book to have a long hiatus in the middle, effectively splitting the book into two parts.
 * Big Sky Country: First Western-themed series.
 * The Elementalists: First Magic(k)-themed series, first series where you can choose the MCs sexuality and first series with an asexual/aromantic character.
 * The Heist: Monaco: First Action-themed book and first series with a criminal MC.
 * Ride or Die: First Thriller-themed book.
 * Open Heart: First Medical Drama book and first book with a wheelchair-bound character.
 * Nightbound: First Paranormal-themed book.
 * TBA: First Nautical-themed book.
 * TBA: First book/series where you can only play as a male MC.
 * TBA: First book/series where you can play as male, female, trans and non-binary.
 * TBA: First book/series with a confirmed autistic character (Sloane is implied to be autistic, though this hasn't been confirmed).
 * TBA: First book/series where certain love interests are only available to certain genders of MC.
 * TBA: First book/series with a "villain protagonist" (The Heist: Monaco has a criminal MC but they aren't a villain, more like a noble thief).
