Natasha asked Madhuri Pavamani:

Hi Madhuri, Who is your favorite character out of all the books that you have read (whether own or external)?

Madhuri Pavamani Girl, this question is SO difficult. I love so many characters for so many reasons.

Of my own creation, my favorites are Wyatt Clayworth and Darby Winthrop from The Sanctum Trilogy and from my upcoming series, The Nine Deaths of Dutch Mathew, Dutch Mathew, and Juma Landry. I love Wyatt's quiet devotion and fierce loyalty, I love Darby's zest for life and all-around badassery, I love Dutch's pain, and Juma's unapologetic sensuality.

Some of my favorite literary characters are The Lorax because he speaks for the trees and he's kind of a badass, The Cat in the Hat because he's the ultimate mischief-maker, the Buendia family from One Hundred Years of Solitude because they are so full of magic, Nikhil/Gogol from The Namesake because I totally get it and he is me, Louis from Interview with the Vampire because I love a tortured soul, and Ziri and Liraz from Dreams of Gods and Monsters because I am a TOTAL sucker for a good love story and theirs is the shit.

I'm sure I could go on and on, but those are a few of mine, Natasha.

Thanks for the question - I loved it.
