Day 14 - What is your favorite book pairing?
I have a lot of favorite book couples (Mr. Darcy/Elizabeth, Jane Eyre/Mr. Rochester, etc.), but my all time favorite is actually from a Wuxia novel called, "Legend of the Condor Heroes." Huang Rong and Guo Jing! Huang Rong is described as being very beautiful, playful, very clever, and she's very skilled at martial arts and the art of herbs/medicine. She helps Guo Jing in his journey and is a valuable partner to him because he's not as clever as she is. I think they started my love for partnership pairings who are in every way equals and help each other out. He's kinda dumb-dumb, but she finds that cute because he has such a good heart, and he helps her become a more considerate person, since she's the only daughter of one of the five great masters of the wuxia world at the time, so she starts out very selfish and very mischievous.
Anyway, if you're interested in Wuxia series, you should read or watch Legend of the Condor Heroes! The newest 2008 version has my favorite version of Huang Rong, played by my favorite Chinese actress, Ariel Lin!
