Top Ten Tuesday is a feature run by the lovely crew at The Broke and The Bookish
Top Ten Characters I Wish Would get Their own Book
Oh so many for this week! First and foremost I want every short story from the My True Love Gave to Me anthology to be a full length book! But for specific characters, here are my top ten(in no particular order!):
1. Eleanor from Illusions of Fate by Kiersten White: Ohmygoodness. I loved her! I really, really, really need a book full of all the mischief she could get in to!
2. Meredith from Anna and the French Kiss by Stephanie Perkins: There are a number of characters from Stephaine Perkin’s books that I would like more of. Meredith tops that list. Maybe some adventures in Italy? 🙂
3. Hassan from An Abundance of Katherines by John Green: He just cracks me up! Also, I would have said Tiny Cooper but David Levithan is making my dreams come true with that one!
4. Any character from the Curse Workers series by Holly Black: I just want more of this world, period. Specifically, I would love more Barron! There is a scene in Black Heart where Cassel goes to get money out of Barron’s wallet and he sees something that basically breaks my heart to even think about. I WANT MORE!
5. Hayden Fire Dancer from The Seven Realms series by Cinda Williams Chima: I never wanted to leave the world of the Seven Realms! Thank goodness Cinda Williams Chima is writing more books in that world! (I cannot find the link but I swear it’s true!!)
6. Kim from If I Stay by Gayle Forman: I just really, really like her and want to be her friend! I would love to see more about her adventures.
7. Ella and Vivi from The Season by Sarah MacLean: We got Alex’s story in The Season. Now I want a book for each of the other girls in this trio of best friends! (And maybe I just want to use any excuse for more books from Sarah MacLean!)
8. Zuzanna and Liraz from Daughter of Smoke & Bone by Laini Taylor: Two of the characters I came to love the most during this series were Zuzanna and Liraz. I would love, love, love books devoted entirely to them! I devoured the short story featuring Zuzanna!
9. Toyla and Tamar from The Grisha Trilogy by Leigh Bardugo: I am a greedy, greedy reader and would love more of their backstory or really anything!!!
10. Ronan from The Raven Cycle by Maggie Stiefvater: I know he features heavily in the books (especially book two!) but I would totally read a book that is all Ronan all the time!!!
I should mention I considered some characters from Sarah Rees Brennan’s books but I really don’t want them to die and I’m pretty sure she’d do something like that!
Quinn @ Quinn's Book Nook
I would totally be up for more and more Ronan. I also think it would be really fun to have a Meredith story, too.
Jaime
OMG I would do anything to get more Ronan!!! Great picks!

La Coccinelle
I don’t even remember Kim from If I Stay… but then, I’m not a fan of that particular book.
Zuzana and Liraz would make good main characters for their own books. Ziri and Hazael made my own list today. There are so many great characters to choose from in that series!
Bonnie @ A Backwards Story
That’s one thing I hate about anthologies. I always want fleshed out worlds!!! Meredith, yes! I should have said her instead of Rashmi. DOH! *slaps self* Gahhhhh, I have to finish some of these series. I’m hiding now!
Alysia
I’ve only read the first book so far by yesss to Zuzanna and Liraz!! Great List. 🙂
Gwen
Fantastic list! I’d personally love a book about Nikolai from the Grisha series — either more about his childhood, the world through his eyes, but especially his privateering days! ~Gwen

I would love to have a book featuring Toyla and Tamar. I just read that trilogy and it was non stop action. I loved it.

Liraz! Yes! I’d love to see more of Liraz and… what was the name of the guy who had a crush on Karou? Can’t remember o.o Well, him and her ♥
