Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted by The Broke and the Bookish. This week's Top Ten Tuesday asks bloggers to blog about their top ten book boyfriends. So a couple years back I did a guest post featuring a summer bookish boyfriend road trip on The Bookbandit's blog. I'll list some of the book friends that I mentioned in the post but I will add a few new ones as well. The following boyfriends are in no particular order.
1. Levi Stewart from Fangirl by Rainbow Rowell. Levi has always supported Cath from day one. He is interested in listening to Simon Snow fan fiction, drives a red pick up truck and works at Starbucks making Mocha Pumpkin Breves. He is always there for you, will cheer you up and can make a mean caffeinated beverage.
2. Carter Penrose from The Sententia series by Cara Bertrand. He works at a bookstore and loves Dad's Diner. Not only is he patient and thoughtful, but he helps bring the best out of people.
2. Will Herondale and Jem Carstairs from The Infernal Devices series by Cassandra Clare. What can I say about these two? Will might be a little bit on the strong side and is impulsive. Jem, on the other hand, is calm, patient and very intelligent.
3. Park Sheridan from Eleanor & Park by Rainbow Rowell - Park loves comic books and 80's indie music. What is there not to love about him?
4. Newt Scamander in Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them by J.K. Rowling - So, technically Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them is a screenplay for the film but I have to say that Newt is the Hufflepuff everyone dreams to be with. Not only is he loyal, but he has a way with all the magical creatures in the Wizarding World. He can be awkward at times but he is super nice! Also, I love his sense of style.
5. Thomas Cresswell from Stalking Jack the Ripper series by Kerri Maniscalco. So not only is Thomas British and Romanian but he lives in the Victorian era and is studying forensic medicine. He is quite the charmer and he knows want he wants in life. Check out Mr. Cresswell in Romania this October!
6. Max Watson from The Start of Me and You by Emery Lord. Max loves literary references, is involved with QuizBowl and might be a bit nerdy. However, he is a total sweetheart!
7. Seth Nguyen from Lucky in Love by Kasie West - Seth work at a zoo, loves film making and he doesn't care if someone has a lot of money. He is genuinely friends with people for who they are.
8. Wallace Warland from Eliza and Her Monsters by Francesca Zappia. Wallace is a huge fan of the online webcomic, Monstrous Sea. He is such a big fan that he actually write Monstrous Sea fan fiction! I love how Wallace breaks stereotypes. He loves football but he is a writer and loves webcomics.
9. Rishi Patel from When Dimple Met Rishi by Sandhya Menon. Rishi loves to please his parents but sometimes he needs a little push in order to speak up for what he is passionate about. He is artistic and loves comics, graphic novels, manga and anime! He is a bit geeky but he is quite the gentleman and is quite funny.
10. John Ambrose McClaren from P.S. I Still Love You by Jenny Han. I know everyone ships Peter K and Lara Jean but I have always loved JAM! I can't say too much about JAM because I don't want to spoil the series but definitely read more about him in the To All the Boys I've Loved Before series.
What are you top ten book boyfriends? Do we share any in common?
I can't believe that I forgot about Newt! I absolutely love him! :-) Great choices, Nicole!
ReplyDeleteNewt is awesome. I can't wait to see more about his story line in future films/screenplays.
DeleteAww... I wish I'd remembered Max!! He's one of my favorites too. I remember loving Emery's book (story AND the characters), which is sadly the only by her I've read. Glad to see Rishi and John on this list; both are guys from books I *really* want to read. Also, happy to see a character from 'Dracula' on this list. That's a duo of books I'd like to read soon-ish. :D
ReplyDeleteOh, and Seth appears on my list too! Loved this character.
I enjoyed Emery's When We Collided as well. Definitely check that one out. I hope you have a chance to read When Dimple Met Rishi and P.S. I Still Love you because both are fantastic! Stalking Jack the Ripper and Hunting Prince Dracula are perfect books to read during this month! YAY for Seth appearing on your list!
DeleteOkay, so I like a lot of your list but I had to specifically say a thing.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely yes to Newt Scamander! #PuffPride
Woohoo! I haven't seen Newt on anyone's list yet but it seems like everyone loves him!
DeleteI added Levi on my list, too, but I can't believe I forgot about Park. Egad! Great list. My Top Literary Crushes, reprise
ReplyDeleteToo many book crushes! Lol. I forgot a few guys on my list like Cricket Bell.
DeleteYour list includes a bunch of books that have been on my radar for a while. I should definitely check some of them out.
ReplyDeleteAnd very yes on Newt Scamander (although I haven't read the screenplay yet)! - Katie
The screenplay is pretty much the same as the film of the same name. But woohoo Newt! I hope you have a chance to check out some of the books I've listed in this post. Thanks for stopping by.
DeleteI kinda loved Newt in the Fantastic Beasts movie, so I get it!
ReplyDeleteAlso, have been wanting to read Fangirl forever now. Need to push that up the list here soon.
Here is our Top Ten Tuesday.
Eddie Redmayne was casted perfectly as Newt! I hope you get to read Fangirl! It's such a cute book!
DeleteI totally forgot about Newt, wish I hadn't because he's totally adorable!
ReplyDeleteMy TTT: https://jjbookblog.wordpress.com/2017/10/03/top-ten-tuesday-127/
I totally agree that he is adorable! It seems like everyone has been raving about Newt on my list.
DeleteWe definitely share Rishi Patel. I haven't read the other books from your list, so maybe I will have more BBF in common with you later.
ReplyDeleteWoohoo for Rishi! I hope you get to read some of the other books at a future date.
DeleteJem made my list too. That boy is definitely swoon worthy.
