Today’s Top Ten Tuesday, hosted by The Broke and the Bookish, is: Top Ten Characters You Wish Would Get Their OWN Book (minor or just maybe a semi main character you wish a book was from their POV).
1. A Nicolai/Sturmhound (I’m pretty sure I spelled both of those wrong) from The Grisha series spin-off would be amazing.
2. Eleanor from Illusions of Fate. She stole every scene she was in and I loved her!
3. While we get some of his POV in the Kate Burkholder series, a John Tomasetti prequel would be awesome.
4. Iko from The Lunar Chronicles series. She’s so funny!
5. Kenji from the Shatter Me series. I basically hated him until the final book, but then I couldn’t get enough!
6. Ethan Mirabelli from The Next Best Thing. Kristan Higgins now writes her books from the POV of each romantic lead, but when this was written, it was still just 1st person POV from the heroine.
7. Lucas from All the Truth That’s in Me. We only get Judith’s POV and I would love to see Lucas’s.
8. Edward Cullen from Twilight. I’m one of those people that devoured the Twilight series, which got me back into reading after a long hiatus, and then when I went back to read them later, did not enjoy them nearly as much. But I still want Midnight Sun!!
Ok, looks like a top 8 is all I’m going to get. I’m sure as soon as this posts, I’ll think of a bazillion characters. Oh, well. What characters do you want to see get their own book/POV?
So, uh, I haven’t read any of these books except for Twilight, and I personally don’t like Edward, but several of these books are on my TBR: Shatter Me, Illusions of Fate, The Lunar Chronicles…
Team Jacob, eh? You should totally read those books on your TBR. They sre great!
I mostly just not team anything in regards to Twilight. Ha. But if I had to chose, it would be Jacob. Edward is a freaky stalker. Lol.
Lol I get that. But i was still Team Edward. I tried to re-read them not too long ago and couldn’t get through them haha
I picked Darkling because I think there’s more material for a story there, but Nikolai is my favorite character! He’d make a great main character too!
I’m kicking myself that I didn’t think of Iko, she’s the best character from Cinder, her book would be so cute!
The Darkling would be an anazing pick too! I would read that book!
We need more Iko in EVERYTHING.
Agreed!
Great choices – I totally agree about Iko!
Love Iko!
I loved what there is of Midnight Sun, but it was horrible when it just stopped. I hope she will eventually finish it.
I know! I was so upset when i realized she had no immediate plans to finish it. Hopefully she’ll surprise us one day with it. Even though i don’t care for the series as much anymore, i would so read it.
Ye me too, I know I cannot bring myself to reread the series, probably read it too much.
I completely agree with Iko. I would love to have a whole book about her. I was so mad when Midnight Sun wasn’t published. I mean Twilight is far from my favorite series, but I need to know what Edward was thinking while he was stalking Bella, haha.
Exactly! I’m a sucker for dual POV and i was so mad when i started reading it and it just stopped!
Kenji was always there for us when the plot got too melodramatic and Warner got too insane.
Yeah, though I like Warner a little insane haha 🙂
Me too. Me too. And I will admit to liking melodrama as well. I always liked Warner better; Adam just bored me.
I loved Adam in the first book, but I also oddly liked Warner. I still liked Adam in book 2, but he definitely became 2nd place to Warner!
Yes, I actually liked book 2 a lot better. Maybe because it had more Warner in it?
Adam was nice, but he was just a bit too perfect. I understand why Juliette latched on to him, though.
