Top Ten Characters We Wish We Could Check In With


For future Top Ten Tuesday topics & info on how to participate, click here!


Daisy's Picks


Han and Raisa from Cinda Williams Chima's Seven Realms Series: I LOVE this series, it's So amazing! And I'd love to know what's going on with Han and Raisa.

EVERYONE from J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter series: obviously this series is one of my favourites of all time and though we got an epilogue, I would still love to learn a little more about what everyone is up to.

Elizabeth and Mr. Darcy from Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice: so much love for these two! This is also the reason why I will forever add all the novels dealing with what happens after Pride and Prejudice to my TBR list.

Sturmhond from Leigh Bardugo's Grisha trilogy: I LOVE Sturmhond and felt there was obviously not enough of him in Ruin and Rising and I just need MORE, ok?

Elisa and HECTOR and everyone from Rae Carson's Fire and Thorns series: so, you know, I kinda pretty much adore this series with all my heart and would love to know what's going on in Elisa's kingdom and what's happening with the other queens and with HECTOR and just. Can we have another series with them please?

Bridget's Picks

Tommy and Del from Tick Tock. An uptight-but-trying-not-to-be Vietnamese novelist meets and falls for the ultimate Manic Pixie Dream Girl while a devil-doll-turned-terrifying-ghoulish-assassin chases him. After all the excitement of the beginning of their relationship, I’d love to see how they settle into being in, you know, a regular relationship with more mundane problems.

Richard Mayhew from Neverwhere. Richard’s decision at the end of Neverwhere is a rather interesting one and I’m curious to know how it’s working out for him. I personally think he might have made a mistake, but there’s no way to know.


Tahleen's Picks


6442769

Q and the gang from Paper Towns. Topical? Sure. But I love these guys, and have ever since I read Green's novel 5 years ago. They are probably one or two years out of college at this point, and I'd love to know if they are working or (in Margo's case) traveling the world.

15795357

Eleanor and Park from Eleanor & Park. Right now they probably have enough of a story between the two of them for three more books at least. I'd love a condensed version, at least.


Emma and Galen from Anna Banks' The Syrena Legacy trilogy. The final book left things pretty good for our two main characters here, but I'm sure the politics between humans, Syrena, and the half-human/half-Syrena of the world are not completely settled. I'd like to know how things are going among the realms.



Tell us which characters YOU would like to check in with!!

  1. I did a fun fairy tale-themed version of this for Fairy Tale Fortnight! Um, I agree with Daisy about J.K. Rowling and Elizabeth/Mr.Darcy ummmm and YES Elisa/Hector SO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Especially...UM, THAT ENDING. I so want another series set way, way in the future!!! And I was talking about Sturmhond on Twitter the other day and Leigh Bardugo said MAYBE SOMEDAY we could have some more of him!!! <3<3<3

  2. You've all got at least one pairing/couple on your list. I think a character's interactions with others really shows the varied sides of their personality.

    ReplyDelete
  3. Agreed with everyone from Harry Potter. Especially Neville and Luna, but really everyone.

    ReplyDelete
  4. I also included Harry and his gang in my list. There were just too many great characters that were lost and survived in this series and I'd like to know how everyone is getting along.

    ReplyDelete
  5. Love this topic! I have Eleanor and Park on my list as well. :)

    ReplyDelete
  6. Great topic and great choices! I also wanted to know what happened after the end of Paper Towns.

    ReplyDelete
  7. Yes, Harry and company were on my list too. An epilogue, but not enough info for me. LOL

    ReplyDelete
  8. I had everyone from harry potter, Eleanor and Park, and Elizabeth Bennet on my list!

    ReplyDelete
  9. Checking in with everyone from HP is a MUST! I'd definitely love another book about them all.
    Sturmhond! YES! There definitely wasn't enough of him in Ruin & Rising, plus, after everything he went through in that book he's got a long journey ahead of him.
    Great list! :D

    ReplyDelete
  10. Daisy like ALL of yours I really want to know about post life!! Especially Han/Raisa and Sturmhond - in fact I would love just a Sturmhond book. He's like the epitome of my character weaknesses - Rogue? Quippy? Charming? *sighs dreamily*

  12. I totally have Harry Potter on my list. I expect them to be on a lot of lists. I didn't even think about Elizabeth and Darcy though. I hope they lived happily ever after.

    ReplyDelete
  13. Eleanor and Park are also on my list. The characters from Harry Potter seem to be very popular this week.

    Aj @ Read All The Things!

    ReplyDelete
  14. Terrific list! Elizabeth and Darcy and Richard Mayhew are great choices.

    ReplyDelete
  15. I cannot believe I forgot Elizabeth and Darcy!! Great picks ladies!!

    ReplyDelete
  16. I'd definitely love to know what's going on with all the HP characters. A spin-off series from Rowling would be awesome!

    ReplyDelete
  17. Eleanor made it to my list too, as did Jane Austen heroines. As did Hermione. I just want to make sure they're okay after all they've been through. Are they happy? What are they up to?

    ReplyDelete
  18. Oh, Neverwhere is a good call. I picked the Marquis de Carabas, but Richard's probably hanging around somewhere near him...

    ReplyDelete
  19. Elizabeth and Darcy are on my list, too! I loved them.
