Literary Crushes
I was reading...
I was reading this blog the other day where someone listed all their literary crushes and I thought I'd do the same. I did more or less the same thing before with my old "Crushes" page, but this is strictly about book characters. Here are mine.
1. *whistlesandlooksaroundtheroom* Aragorn *goesred*
2. Laurie from Little Women. I hated Jo for about three seconds when she refused his offer of marriage. I always thought that, even if they did quarrel, they would make a better couple than her and Mr. Bhear, and him and Amy.
3. Luke Castellan from Percy Jackson and the Olympians. Sadly, I like villains, especially if they semi-reform by the end of the book.
4. Edward Rochester. Even though I don't really like Jane Eyre as a novel, I do think Rochester is an awesome Byronic hero. Same with Heathcliff, but Heathcliff's a little too cruel to everyone to actually like.
The list on the blog I read included Gilbert Bythe from Anne of Green Gables. Somehow, though I've never been able to consider him all that great. He was nice to Anne and all, but he didn't have much character. And he did hang on to her a bit, too.

I thought of some others:
Prince Julian from Bella at Midnight.
Rory Williams from Doctor Who. How could you not love someone who says: " I don't care that you got old, I care that we didn't grow old together." I mean seriously, where do you find a Rory?!?!?
Hook from Once Upon a Time. He's hilarious and very attractive, although I would prefer it if he lost his guyliner.

HOLD EVERYTHING. SOMEONE METIONED OUAT AND HOOK!!! HE'S SOOOO CUTE (I had a huge crush on him last year) I ALSO LIKE PETER PAN AND YOUNG BAELFIRE FROM OUAT.
Sorry, cute boys and OUAT equals a fangirling Blu.

Gosh, I don't know. I usally prefer shipping characters with each other than with me. Here's just what I remember right now: I kinda have a crush on Yasaman from the Flower Power series, by Lauren Myracle, as well as either Elphaba or Galinda from Wicked. And - yes, I know it’s probably cheating - Tara from Buffy the vampire Slayer and Lilah from Angel. Oh, and Misty from Pokemon, even though I haven't watched it for years. She was my first love...

Skylar from The Familiars
Ripred from Gregor The Overlander (because why not, rats are cool)
Ell from The Girl Who Circumnavigated Fairyland
Bluefur/kit/paw/star from Warriors: Bluestar's Prophecy
I'm not sure if this actually counts because it's from a movie but I'll say it anyway...
Surly from The Nut Job (I know right)
So yeah. There's probably more but I just can't think of them.

Harry- I think thats easy to guess what series.
I'm curious- whats with the Draco fanclub? Currently (no offensense ment) I find him a bit jerk-ish. That might change- I'm only on the fifth book:)
