[WEEKLY MUSING] 10 of my Book Cruhes and/or Fave (male) Characters

tell me i'm not dreaming alone (against the current)
Hello,

It's Valentine's Day and I spent the lovely day with my family. I've read a couple of pages of Nine Stories by J.D. Salinger. And now, I'll be working on my univ. homework. Ugh.

Anyway, since I didn't do anything that screams Valentine's Day today, I decided to create a list of my book crushes (or book boyfriends!!) and or fave male characters in books. Just because why not?

Peter Kavinsky (To All the Boys I've Loved Before Duology) | Dorian Havilliard (Throne of Glass Series) | Frank Porter (Since You've Been Gone) | Ben Parish aka Zombie (The 5th Wave Series)

These are my top book crushes. I don't usually swoon over characters but when I do, I just end up fangirling so hard over them (you can go ask my younger sister for it).

You know I'm a black sheep. I'm sorry that I like Dorian more than Chaol. Please don't hate me for it. I'm also more of a Zombie fan than an Evan fan on The 5th Wave. Actually I never liked Evan. Meh. AND who wouldn't like Peter K && Frank Porter? :D

Prince Kai (the Lunar Chronicles) | Noah Shaw (The Unbecoming of Mara Dyer) | Dashiell aka Dash (Dash and Lily's Book of Dares)

These are some guys I like but don't fangirl so much about (except for Kai maybe, since I still swoon over him whenever I read the Lunar Chronicles. LOL). I need to buy the entire Mara Dyer series. I've only read the first one because of PulseIt's free reads. I suck, I know.. But soon. I promise. And Dash? I just plainly think he's adorable. I like how nerdy and maybe daring he is :)

Connor Lassiter (Unwind Dystology) | Darrow Au Andromedus (Red Rising Trilogy) | Maven Calore (Red Queen Series)

These are some of my fave characters! I don't have a crush on them but I just LOVE them as characters. Connor is definitely my #1 fave character and no matter what, I'll always cheer for him. And Darrow? He's one of the best characters ever! He has some great developments like Connor. Maven? He's one of my black sheep moments again. I ended up liking him in Red Queen more than Cal. Just because Cal is so 'meh' :P

AND if you're not so busy and are interested, you can go ahead and take this quiz from Alternative Press: Who should be your Valntine's Day bae? I just randomly tried it. Some crazy quiz, I know. But yeah.. I really wish I got someone like twenty one pilots, or Lynn Gunn, or Jenna McDougall. But Derek DiScanio is also fine :)

How about you guys, who are you book (or fictional) crushes? do we have similarities?


let's connect!

Oh gosh. Too many to mention! I do remember Dash as one of those boys I had a crush with many years ago, tho. :D

it's just too difficult to miss Dash just because he's so adorable! haha,

Dorian and Maven? You really do like the less popular guy in the triangle. I love that! It's also the road to frustration and heartbreak. But you probably already know that....

I'm certainly more than prepared to take on the burden of liking the less popular guy. I hope you continue to support my struggle, haha

I am an Evan fan sorry. And I do love Kai but Thorne is actually my favorite. To be honest though I think Meyer did a great job with all the guys in this series. They are all swoon worthy.

nah, that's fine... I can really see why people like him. He just isn't my type of guy, I guess.. I LOVE Thorne as well because he's the funniest guy out there (and Cress just brought out the romantic side of him which is really cute!!) but I chose Kai over Thorne just because he's the type I literally like more of. Have to agree that Meyer did a great job with the guys in the series!! really makes me look forward to her next work!

I actually love both Dorian and Chaol haha. Dash is definitely one of my book crushes, too. ;) And YES, I'm so glad I'm not the only one who likes Ben! I honestly cannot deal with Evan. He gets on my nerves SO much.

I like them both, Dorian just got the edge for me, haha. Yay for people who prefers Ben over Evan! I really just don't like the way Evan is sooooo all over Cassie and trying to be super protective and all... he makes me dislike Cassie at some points..

Oh, such great crushes you have, and such a fun post! :D I just started reading Red Rising and I'm LOVING it. My crushes I'd have to say are Rowan from Throne of Glass, Rhysand from ACOTAR, Raffe from Angelfall, and Nikolai from the Grisha Trilogy. I probably have way more but those are the first that come to mind, haha!

I really have to go further in Throne of Glass (finished Crown of Midnight a couple of months ago) and start reading ACOTAR!! I hope you enjoy Red Rising. It's one of my all time favorite series (even though I still haven't read Morning Star, shameful of me).

Yes to Noah and Maven. Love the both them. Aside from Peter I haven't met the rest. I obviously have some reading to do!

YAY FOR ANOTHER MAVEN FAN! I really need to get around the next two of the Mara Dyer series so I can get more of Noah :D
