*high-fives diana*
*whacks rachel in the face*"
I liked Rachel's character, personally.


yes, I have. I just wasn't sure if you were talking about the rachel I was thinking of. but if it's that rachel.... I probably would whack her, too



lolz. but that's a good thing!

Favorite guys:
1. Sydney Carton (A Tale of Two Cities - Charles Dickens ): because he’s tragic and sad and touching and hopeless and sweet, and noble.
2. Mr. Knightley (Emma - Jane Austen): because he’s so reasonable and grounded and steady. And he says “if I loved you less I might be able to talk about it more.” *loves it*
3. Peeta Mellark (The Hunger Games - Suzanne Collins): because he’s sooo sweet!
4. Gilbert Blythe (Anne of Green Gables - L.M. Montgomery): because, he’s romantic, and sweet, and boyish…with his roguish hazel eyes and dark hair. ;)
5. Max Meyer (The Shiloh Legacy - Brock & Bodie Thoene): it was really hard choosing one of the Thoene’s guys because they’re all really pretty much awesome, but I decided on Max because he starts out as a jerk and becomes such a nice guy. He grows so much.
Favorite girls:
1. Capitola Black (The Hidden Hand - E.D.E.N. Southworth): because she’s absolutely nuts, eccentric, and fiercely brave and loyal. Overall, lovable!
2. Anne Shirley (Anne of Green Gables - L.M. Montgomery): ‘cause she’s Anne! With an E, of course.
3. Katniss Everdeen (The Hunger Games - Suzanne Collins): because she kicks butt. xD
4. Maximum Ride (Maximum Ride - James Patterson {duh}): she kicks butt and she’s funny. ;)
5. Elisa Lindheim (The Zion Covenant - Brock & Bodie Thoene): eh, there is no one reason. I just like her.
TOP FIVE:
BOYS:
*Skulduggery Plesant (Skulduggery Plesant series) -Whats not to love about a smart dressing skelleton detective with awesomeaction skills and a great sense of humor?
*Jacob Black (Twilight Series)-I mean the character, not Taylor Launter. I loved Jacob before the movies were made.
*Remus Lupin (Harry Potter series) he was so supportive and awesome. Plus David Thwelis did him justice in the movie.
*Finnick (Catching Fire) Such a unique character. Caring, action packed, brave man.
*Ron (Harry Potter) Come on, every body as a spot for Ron...
*Dustfinger (Inkheart Trilogy) Hes an awesome fire eater with attitude!!!!
GIRLS:
*Elinor (Inkheart Trilogy) an old woman who loves books and has serious attitude.
*Johanna (Catching Fire) What a fierce character she is. What sealed her as my favorite was when she and kat had the wire, taking it down the hill. That and the awesome axe throw on the beach.
*Hermione (Harry Potter) So clever and plays a super important role.
