Top Ten Tuesday: All Time Favorite Characters

Hosted over at The Broke and Bookish :)

My all-time favorite characters in books...

1. Percy Jackson from The Lightning Thief (and all other books in the series)
    He is just so darn hilarious, and he's such a great friend, and a mean demigod hero.

2. Rose Hathaway from Vampire Academy
    Hands-down one of my favorite heroines of all time. Seriously, she is just do tough and bada$$ and funny and I just loved her sense of duty and selflessness as a guardian.Oh and did I mention that she's pretty witty?

3. Cinder from Cinder (read my review here!)
    Following the tough-heroine thing, Cinder is the coolest Cinderella I've ever read about! She's sarcastic, strong, and also quite selfless. Oh, and did I mention she's a cyborg and has an immediate internet connection in her head?

4. WILL HERONDALE. (from Clockwork Prince--review here)
     I'm sorry! I CAN'T RESIST! I'm trying not to make this whole list about book boys....but it's so hard! If you've read some of my previous posts, you probably know I am kinda sorta IN LOVE with dear Will. Oh. My. Holy cheese on rye, you guys, he is probably my all-time favorite book boyfriend. I even like him better than Jace! If you have not had the pleasure of reading about Will Herondale, then whatareyoustilldoinghere?! Go read the books! (OR check out my book boyfriend post on him HERE
(but quite honestly, ANY one of Cassandra Clare's characters could be on this list.... Will just happens to be my all-time fave)

5. Rebecca Bloomwood from Confessions of a Shopoholic
     Because.... ok, confession time: I am..... a... shopoholic. As such, I cannot not love plucky Becky Bloomwood and all her hilariousness when it comes to shopping dilemmas (such as shopping when you don't have money...)---If you haven't read the book, then I suggest you try to watch the movie; I love both the book and the movie and I think you'll love Rebecca in either media.

6. Atticus Finch from To Kill a Mockingbird
    If you've read this book, then I'm pretty sure you know why Atticus is so awesome. He's just such a good person and father---and also... I like his name.

7. Puck from The Iron Fey series
  Don't get me wrong, I adore Ash and Meghan together, but I freaking LOVE Puck! He's hilarious, but underneath all that humor, he's loyal, honorable, and brave--and a genuinely good guy, er faerie. Undoubtedly one of my favorite characters from the entire series (Grimalkin was a close second)

8. Professor Snape from Harry Potter
    He was, by far, one of the most complex characters in the entire series! At the end of the series, he was also one of my favorite ones too because his selflessness was just so astounding, and quite frankly, kinda inspiring.

9. Sophie Mercer/Archer Cross from Hex Hall
Ok, this is kind of a two-fer but what can I say? I'm a total sucker for a character with snark and a great sense of humour!

10. Jacob Tolan from Saving June
OH MY GOODNESS GRACIOUS, I am freaking in love with this boy! (Him and Will Herondale) All I can say is that Harper is one lucky lady for nabbing such a snarky, but sensitive and sweet boy like him. Seriously. Swooning right now just thinking about him! If you need more convincing, check out my book boyfriend post on him here

  7. What a fantastic list! I love that you mention Becki Bloomwood. She is hilarious and I adore Luke Brandon. Love him.And yes, yes, yes to Percy, Snape (he makes me want to cry) and Will (one of my total book crushes). But I don't think there's a better character than Atticus Finch. :)

  8. SNAPE!

    I've seen so many people putting Harry Potter characters in this list, but everybody seems to forget about him. Of course, he was in my list. I love him ^^
