Today's theme is Top Ten Favorite Characters
{Hosted by The Broke & The Bookish}
{in no particular order}
- Alice Cullen from the Twilight Saga: She is so much like a fairy - she's quirky, fun, and full of energy. But she is also incredibly protective of those she loves. She was hands-down my favorite character in the saga.
- Zsadist from Black Dagger Brotherhood series: Oh, tortured soul. I was waiting and waiting for Z's story and I was sucked in when it happened (book 3). I always like the dark, "broken", bad boys in stories. They are like the underdog and I always root for them.
- Hannah Swenson from Hannah Swenson series: Hannah is so awesome. I cannot stress this enough. She's a fellow Minnesotan and she has a cookie shop. She's sassy and stays true to who she is. She's not a girly girl, but a guy's girl.
- Sirius Black from Harry Potter series: The first time I ever cried reading a book was over his death. It was devastating. He was only in a few of the books, but what he did in that short time was insanely memorable and heartwarming, etc.
- Albus Dumbledore from Harry Potter series: How can you not love Dumbledore? He's one of the best characters of the literary world. He is probably my favorite book character ever.
- Eric Northman from Southern Vampire Mystery series: SWOON! Part of the swoon may be due to Alexander Skarsgard's part in this character, but even in the books, so hard not to love a bad boy! :P AND he's a Viking. This helps :)
- Prince Ash from Iron Fey series: Another mysterious "bad boy" type, the Winter Prince! I wasn't necessarily the most fond of Meghan...and I was totally in love with Puck's character until Ash came into the picture.
- Anita Blake from Anita Blake series: She is easily one of the most kickass women in the literary world. AND she's surrounded by amazing men.
- Nathaniel from Anita Blake series: In some ways, his character reminds me a little of Zsadist now that I reflect back on him. He such a special person in Anita's life and a very, very important part too.
- Jean Claude from Anita Blake series: The "Eric Northman" of St. Louis! But really...he is much like Eric Northman. Love it!
