Best Character Ever

[Sayshisweetie]

I read "Heart on a Chain" a while ago and the main character in their was amazing! Well written and totally likeable! She was the victim of child abuse and she was one of those characters you care about.

[Kimber]

The Vampire Lestat, Ya gotta love him! I'm convinced he's for real and that I would know him right away.

[Fiona]

Remember when Anne Rice finished writing Memnoch the Devil, her answering machine on her phone said that she had nothing more to say about Lestat, he was quiet now and not talking to her anymore. Obviously she changed her mind after that! At the time I thought it was an odd was of putting it, almost as if Lestat really WAS alive and telling her his life story. But now that I'm a published author, I have characters "talking" in my head all of the time, waiting for me to write their stories also. I guess that's why I write.

Hermione from harry potter, i just love her, even when she's a bit annoying
Mr. Darcy from pride & prejudice
Edmond Dantes in the count of monte cristo
Hareton Earnshaw in wuthering heights
Grover Underwood in the Percy Jackson series

[Fiona]

Foaly from the Artemis Fowl books by Eoin Colfer. And Artemis' bodyguard: Butler. If you enjoyed the Harry Potter books, you have to read the Artemis Fowl series! They are much better written, and more fully-developed characters.

Edward is my favorite too. Except my Edward isn't a vampire, he kills them with a flame thrower. Edward (aka Ted Forrestor) from the Anita Blake Vampire Hunter series by Laurell K. Hamilton.

[Valerie]

Hmm...a lot of you guys like fantasy? My favorite is probably Holden Caulfield. Hahaha

[Beatrix]

Best character? Jace Wayland of City of Bones He's terrificly horrible. Although my all out character crush is Jem Cartstairs from Clockwork Angel.
Teehee, I love her books. :3

[Susan]

Nora Bonesteel from the Ballad Books by Sharyn McCrumb. What a wonderful, wonderful character. I wish I knew her.....

[Susan]

OK, I just posted, then was going back through some of the older posts and there seem to be a lot that mention being in love with Edward Cullen. One says he's every woman's perfect man. Yes, he's good looking....or rather, Robert Pattinson is good looking....but he's also cold. I can't imagine finding a man whose skin is icy to the touch that exciting. Maybe it's just me.

I agree! I also really like Charlie from The Perks of Being A Wallflower, Turtle Wexler (The Westing Game), Addie (The Two Princesses of Bamarre), and pretty much all of the characters in the Harry Potter series.

Oh Edward Cullen, he who has captured the hearts of many

[Dorottya]

first of all, my view of best character is what I think is a really complex an authentic, well-written character which I like to read about... not a character I would be soooo good friends with in real life :).

Ohh I just love Tyrion in game of thrones. He's just sooo cunning, I like that.

I watch an interview with George R.R. Martin and he says that Tyrion is his favorite character and he would want to be witty like Tyrion. I love him but no one can beat Danny for me.

She is so mature for her age...
