Goodreads asked Chris Philbrook:

Who is your favorite fictional couple, and why?

Chris Philbrook It's a close race between three couples, and I waver.

I loved the relationship between Iggy and Merrin in Joe Hill's book Horns. Despite her being dead the whole book, the flashbacks and their sweet, flawed love resounds with me.

I also love Fran and Stu from The Stand. They were one of the first relationships I was mature enough to understand when I was a young reader, so there's nostalgia there. Plus... I just like the two characters independently, and they feel like they belong together.

Thirdly, I really enjoy the relationship in the Saga comic book between Alana and Marko. They are so messed up, and so in love, and I can't help but get swept up into their storm.

Love all three, and depending on what I'm doing at the time... I'll pick a different favorite.
