I'm kind on infatuated with Miles from Torment
I was infatuated with Peeta at some point, now I'm not so sure.

Yes, or take this discussion to the Twilight thread. I think it's making me crazy :P

It was actually a comment about how could you not love Edward that spawned this whole discussion. Then someone asked a question about why people dislike Bella so much.
People sometimes think that those of us who hate Twilight are lurking in wait to insult it. When someone asks a question we answer. To be honest if people just forgot about Twilight and I didn't have to hear about it again I'd be all the happier....

i hated linger.. shiver was OK... :) love love love HG..

I was also infatuated wiht Peeta in the first two books, then in the third I was a little put off, but I guess I can understand after what happened....I can't really post more in case someone on this topic hasn't read it yet, but if you have you'll understand.

That's it exactly. Anytime anyone mentions loving anything about Twilight, the haters come out of the closet. It gets old.

Don't call us "haters" because when someone asks "Why do people think Bella is weak?" that we answer their question.

Love it or hate it, it's definitely not going away.
I love Peeta, but too be fair I've only just started Catching Fire. Gale hasn't really been around at all.

p.s. I thought I tried to move on from the "series that shall not be named" people!

You called yourself a hater by saying "those of us who hate Twilight". Just sayin'.

I think he's the most perfect boyfriend in any YA book, well, ANY book, honestly. He's truly flawless and his relationship with Bethany is enviable.

I thought Peeta was a bit...bland throughout the series, but Catching Fire was definitely my favorite of the three! Enjoy!

I didn't mean it in an insulting way. I always feel like I'm being insulted by those who hate Twilight because I love it. I'm cool with agreeing to disagree. Just ask Heidi. :)

I have to go find the DVD's now. Just finished Anne of the Island and I think Gilbert is such a good, true, strong man and I love every time that he ends up with a good true strong woman. I'll never loose the heartbreak or the magic of this book no matter how many times I read it.
I have to find Windy Poplars on audio if I want to continue the series, but they don't have it free on itunes. Time to hit up the library. Sad because I have been loving this reader.

Drizzt is pretty hot..."
You're the first person I've seen mention Drizzt, who, by the way, is all kinds of bad-assedness


For me:
Edward Cullen from Twilight (duh!)
Tamani from Wings
Sonny Flanni..."
Pretty much in love with Draco Malfoy... lol

I also love Peeta (Hunger Games), Jace (Mortal Instruments), Seth (Wicked Lovely), well, the list goes on and on ;)

That's where I had heard the name!!! Oh my goodness I was wracking my brain trying to figure out why it was so familiar to me. The books I read with him in them didn't really give me an infatuation with him, but I only read two out of the series and they were far out of order from how they're supposed to be read, but I didn't know it. Interesting, I may have to revisit the series and see if it can hold my attention this time.



Same here! I love love love Dimitri. His personality, his accent, his total badass-ness and everything else, too. He's so freakin' awesome and sexy. <333

I know what you mean, that scene totally made the whole of VA #5. I was really mad at Dimitri for being so caring towards Lissa and then making Rose cry, but when he stood up for her in front of the Guardian Police, I totally fell for him all over again.



Jacob Black .. duh
Edward Cullen .... double duh
Leo in Sea Change by Aimee Friedman
Sam in Shiver by Maggie Stiefvater


I know exactly what you mean, me too!

Same here!..."
Oh yeah!

So worth the read or the listen...






Roiben is awesome and oh so dreamy.
