Top Ten Characters I wish I could be BFFs with!
Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted by The Broke and the Bookish
I’m disappointed in me with this list! It was so easy to think of fictional crushes a few weeks ago. The hard part was narrowing it down. However, when trying to think up BFFs for this list I had a MUCH harder time coming up with names! Apparently I’m pickier about who I’ll be friends with than who I have a crush on. I guess that makes sense… crushes can be from afar and you don’t ever have to actually speak to them (sometimes it may be best not to!) but a BFF is someone you really have to click with. There are lots of characters that I really admire but wouldn’t want to be BFFS with. Hmmm… I still don’t know how I feel about this.
1. Elizabeth Bennet from Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen
She’s smart, fun, witty… I kind of want to be her! I’ll settle for being her friend. She’s the one whose opinion I’d want to hear.
2. Anne Shirley from Anne of Green Gables by L.M. Montgomery
Kindred spirit or bosom buddy… either one works for me! She’d keep things interesting.
3. Evie from Paranormalcy by Kiersten White
Two reasons: 1. She’s awesome. 2. Tasey.
4. Katarina Bishop from Heist Society by Ally Carter
The whole time I was listening to this audiobook I kept thinking that I wanted in!
5. Mae from The Demon’s Lexicon & The Demon’s Covenant by Sarah Rees Brennan
I just loved her voice in The Demon’s Covenant. Plus, she’s loyal to those she cares about.
6. Scarlett from Suite Scarlett & Scarlett Fever by Maureen Johnson
She’s got flair. I’d love to just spend a day wandering around New York with her.
7. Beauty from Beauty by Robin McKinley
She’s good and kind but not boring. Her bravery would make for some fun adventures.
8. Valerie Russell from Valient series by Holly Black
She’s tough and a survivor. Val’s the friend you want to have when things go awry.
9. Cammie Morgan from Gallagher Girls series by Ally Carter
She could teach me all sorts of fun spy stuff… need I say more?
10. Alexandra from The Season by Sarah MacLean
I love that she didn’t just conform to what a young lady was “supposed” to do. I’d want to be in her group of friends instead of the type that only wanted to land a husband!

I had a hard time coming up with this list, too! I haven’t read most of these, but it seems like you’re pretty consistent, at least 🙂

I didn’t have Anne Shirley on my list, but I would love to sit down for tea with her… maybe some cooking sherry too.

SO with you on Elizabeth. I’d scratch her eyes out for Darcey though. Just sayin. I don’t think our friendship would last.

Nice call on Anne Shirley. I read the entire series growing up. Such great writing!

Jamie, I know what you mean! Lizzie and my friendship would only work with the understanding that Darcy is mine.

Oh, Evie’s a good choice! She’s bright and energetic and could totally take care of any paranormals that attacked us.
