Top Ten Tuesday is an original feature/weekly meme created at The Broke and the Bookish.
My favourites right now are definitely:
1. Anne & Gilbert from the Anne of Green Gables series by L. M. Montgomery
2. Sephy & Callum from the Noughts and Crosses series by Malorie Blackman
3. Leah & Jonas from the Abram's Daughters series by Beverly Lewis
4. Francine & Davis from Shades of Grace by Barbara Delinsky
5. Jane & Mr Rochester from Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte
6. Ross & Lia from Second Glance by Jodi Picoult
7. Rilla & Kenneth from Rilla of Ingleside by L. M. Montgomery
8. Caddy & Michael from the Casson Family series by Hilary McKay
9. Marvinder & Patrick from the Surya trilogy by Jamila Gavin
10. Annie & Samuel from A Simple Amish Christmas by Vannetta Chapman
What are your favorite couples in books? Do you disagree/agree with any of mine? What makes a good fictional couple in your mind? What couples make you want to gag?
Your choices make me feel illiterate since I haven't even heard of most of your book choices. You might think the same from my list. Let me know. Headdfullofbooks
ReplyDeleteLol, I have to agree with Anne here! I only know Anne & Gilbert (and Rilla & Kenneth) from your list! I have Jane Eyre on my TRB. I will definitely check out some of the books from your list, these meme's are great for new novels to look for
ReplyDeleteAww, Anne, don't feel illiterate! Several of the couples I mentioned are from kids/YA books from my childhood - not exactly literary fiction!
ReplyDeleteI only came to love Jane Eyre this year after attempting it a few times as a teen and hating it. Funny how your opinion of a book can change over time. It's a lovely book, I definitely prefer it to Wuthering Heights. And as for Anne and Gilbert, I could read about them a million times. Those books never get old!
I had lots of trouble with this week's meme. It was tough for me to come up with literary couples.
