Top Ten Tuesday is an original blog meme hosted by The Broke and the Bookish. This week is Top Ten Tuesday Freebie! Pick your own topic! This week I’ll be listing books/series with characters I am emotionally attached to, which basically means that when I talk about them, people tend to think I’m a little nutty.
Ten Books That Convince People I’m Nutty:
1. Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen
Elizabeth Bennet is my alter ego.
2. Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone by J.K. Rowling
Harry, Ron, and Hermione are my best book friends.
3. The Knife of Never Letting Go by Patrick Ness
Todd Hewitt, you wonderful, wonderful boy.
4. The Raven Boys by Maggie Stiefvater
Gansey, Ronan, Adam, Noah, Blue, Me. We are perfect together.
5. The Book Thief by Markus Zusak
Rudy.
6. Wildwood Dancing by Juliet Marillier
Jena and Gogu, but basically anything by Juliet Marillier makes me pretty emotional.
7. For Darkness Shows the Stars by Diana Peterfreund
Elliot North, you sweet girl.
8. The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins
Peeta. Is it wrong to be more emotionally attached to him than Katniss?
9. Dragonswood by Janet Lee Carey
Tess, you skittish wildling.
10. Shug by Jenny Han
Annemarie Wilcox. I understand.
Any characters you’re emotionally attached to? Let me know and I might have to check out those books.

Fabulous list. I haven’t finished reading The Book Thief, but I know who Rudy is. I definitely don’t think it’s wrong to be more emotionally attached to Peeta than Katniss. She’s hard to get close to–ask Gale and Peeta. 🙂
Thanks for visiting The Book Connection.

I’m an Elizabeth Bennet too. 😀 And Peeta would be my book boyfriend, if I wasn’t married and old enough to be his mom. ;P Great list! I’m sure people think I’m nuts about Austen, HP, THG, and Doctor Who!

Peeta’s pretty great and definitely in my top ten list of book boyfriends. Another list that will make people think I’m nutty. Fantastic!

Love your topic this week – it’s so true. This happened the other day when I wanted to buy a Hoody that says, “Make Love Not Horcruxes” and I had to explain what a Horcrux was, which obviously led into a 20 minute explanation from book 2-7 concluding with the Deathly Hallows… the other people in the conversation had open mouths and were in complete silence by the end of the discussion, you’d think I was speaking a different language, which in a way, I guess I was!

I want that hoodie! What a great way to meet other kindred spirits. Horcruxes can be difficult to explain to outsiders.

Exactly, everyone said I should get something more recognisable but I thought if it was a horcrux related item you’d really be able to weed out the fans from the movie-watchers!

While people might think you’re nutty, all you need is a group of like-minded people and you’ll share in all the feels that is in each novel/series! The power of feels, yo.
