  • Top Ten Tuesday: Characters That Deserve Their Own Book

    Posted at 3:26 pm by Laura, on November 11, 2014

    Top Ten Tuesday, a concept started by The Broke and the Bookish, is a themed post that connects bloggers to bloggers, bloggers to readers, and readers to readers. Every Tuesday has a special topic, and this Tuesday is Top Ten Characters I Wish Would Get Their OWN Book.

    You know what? I love reading the romantic interest’s side of the story, but sometimes not within the same book. Dual perspectives can really work, and I have nothing against them. But I also like to read a story through one character’s POV and speculate what the other character is thinking and doing. Just like real life: you only know your perspective…what about your friend’s? Probably why I love Gayle Forman so much — her companion books are divine.

    So the characters I’m most interested in reading are, in no particular order…

    1-3. Hermione Granger, Ron Weasley, Sirius Black

    4. Etienne St. Clair

    5. Mr. Rochester

    16081202
    16270141
    17286849

    6. Matt Finch

    7. Alexei (though this may ruin the ambiguous ending of the story)

    8. Levi

    17332313
    51Bl9ADBdlL

    9. Miss Havisham (this has been done, though! I’ll need to read it!)

    10. Augustus Waters

    Which character’s perspective would you love to read? Do we have any similar ones?

      ETIENNE ❤ ❤ ❤

      I've seen some people list Reagan or Wren from Fangirl, which I'd also be interested in reading after Levi 🙂

      And I'm all for more Harry Potter in any way, shape, or form.

      Oh and what about Outlander, completely from Jamie's perspective!!!

        I did wonder if I wanted to read from Jamie’s perspective. And I do – I’ve enjoyed his chapters – but I’m going to be really frank here and say that I’d only want to read his perspective from the first book and his initial reaction at seeing Claire again.

        I’ll probably change my mind after continuing more into the series and say ALL JAMIE ALL BOOKS…

          Oh I def meant just the first book and mainly the first half 🙂 I know they made a graphic novel of it but I’d want a novel novel!

    • Hello, I’m Laura!

      I'm a bookish bookworm and book hoarder. By day I'm a literary agent, and by night I'm forever rearranging my bookshelves. I could talk your ear off about Gothic literature, and in my past life people thought I'd become a professional musician. I have a fluffy black cat named Rossetti, I love to travel, tea is my drink of choice, British TV is the best, and I'm always down for chips-and-queso nights. Welcome to Scribbles & Wanderlust!
