Thank you The Broke and the Bookish for this wonderful Tuesday Meme
There were two topics today and I was going to do the first one, but then I thought about it and decided on the latter… Top Ten Characters I’d NEVER Want To Trade Places With. It seemed like something that would make me think and more interesting to write about so let’s get on with this week’s topic!
The first two characters I would not trade places with are Tris & Four. I may love these characters so much and will root for them and just wish they were my friends, but at the end of the day I would not in a million years trade places with them. If any of you have read Allegiant or have been spoiled… You all know why.
Cia. I really like her as a strong female character. She has morals. She has a heart. Not like some other characters in this book. Again, I would not in a million years trade places with her either. What she had to go through… nope. I wouldn’t be alive if I were her. The world she’s living in is so full of pain and deceit, I don’t want to go there.
Katniss & Peta. My babies. My loves. The OTP that wasn’t my OTP until Mockingjay. I love them, but nope. I would not trade places. Ever.
Finally we get to a character that is in a contemporary novel. Jennifer. I really like Jennifer as a character, but the pain she had to go through in this book broke my heart in two. I love her, but I wouldn’t trade place with her… now Beth… that’s a different story. 🙂
Oh, Sydney. I’m sure several of you are shocked that I would not trade places with Sydney. Adrian Ivashkov is my #1 fictional boyfriend and the love of my fictional life, but I still would not trade places with her. If you’ve read the end of TFH, you all know why.
The last three characters in my list are Rose, Lissa, and Christian. Each character’s past is so sad and horrible. I don’t want their pasts to be my past. I don’t want to fight strigoi, have a family that voluntarily turned strigoi, or have the continuation of royal family on my shoulders. I honestly don’t want my life to be in constant danger and have all this emotional baggage to deal with. I love all three of them, but I’m sorry. I ain’t trading places with them any time soon. or Ever.
What are some characters you wouldn’t trade places with?
Great list. I also wouldn’t want to trade places with Katniss. I would fail badly at The Hunger Games. I almost added Tris to my list too. Especially because of the ending of Allegiant 😉
I wouldn’t trade places with Katniss either. I’d die before making it into the forest!
