This challenge comes is
And the Nominees Are and it's SUPER HARD! I'm going to be thinking about this the whole hour, probably!
Favorite Female Character in a book: Jo March in Little Women, Little Men, and Jo's Boys. Easy!
Favorite Male Character in a book: *headdesk!* WHY OH WHY DO YOU TORTURE ME SO? Maybe Peeta in The Hunger Games books? I adore him, but I adore many a fictional male!
Favorite Side Kick in a book: I suppose Simon from Cassie Clare's The Mortal Instruments series is considered a sidekick. So far it's him, because he has a really amazing story arc -- and I'm looking forward to City of Fallen Angels to see how his story progresses.
Favorite Couple in a Book: Katniss and Peeta? THIS IS SO HARD! (or maybe Rose and Emmett.... *smirks*)
Favorite Book Series: The Hunger Games. EASY, thank you!
Favorite Author: Louisa May Alcott, always and forever.
Favorite Book Cover: Ooooh! I love this! Recently, I've LOVED LOVED LOVED LIndsey Eland's Scones and Sensibility cover so much that I've gazed at it and touched it for minutes on end.
Favorite Book of 2009: Catching Fire by Suzanne Collins AND Eyes Like Stars by Lisa Mantchev
Pretty book!
