Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted by The Broke and the Bookish.
This week’s theme is pretty straightforward! I did add “Girlfriends” to the title since I did include one female character but a majority here are book boyfriends! Let’s just get right to it!
Lucy/Lucifer (The Wicked + The Divine)
My only bookish girlfriend on the list but I HAVE to add her because I love her character so freaking much! Lucy was such a badass in the first volume of The Wicked + The Divine and also extremely attractive in general.
Sevro Au Barca (Red Rising)
Is it weird that I adore Sevro to bits and pieces? Hopefully I’m not the only one! He’s just so…unique, I loved his character.
P.S. I also adore Pax…
Jon Snow (A Song of Ice and Fire)
Because I mean…..come on…. who doesn’t love Jon Snow?
Tyrus (The Diabolic)
While I completely ship Tyrus and his love interest I wouldn’t mind having him for myself either! He’s ruthless, deadly, and extremely smart and I tell you any character that can play around with all that court intrigue is attractive as hell.
Brack (Kingdom of Ash And Briars)
Definitely a lesser known book and definitely a lesser known character! Brack isn’t the main love interest but he is an important side character and I just loved him, if you read the book you may know what I’m talking about!
Dr. Pellinore Warthrop (The Monstrumologist)
I really do just swoon at the mention of this character! He’s just so dark, broody, and intelligent and while he does come off as a little standoffish there is a lot more to him than that.
Kaz Brekker (Six of Crows)
Yet another character I’m pretty sure anyone who has read this book will love! I think Kaz is the definition of roguishly handsome.
Adrian Ivashkov (Vampire Academy)
I read this series AGES ago but I still remember Adrian being one of my favorite characters! He’s so suave, sometimes an asshole but still not that bad of a guy.
Fred & George Weasley (Harry Potter)
Probably my all time favorite set of bookish boyfriends, I have had a crush on these two since I was a kid reading Harry Potter for the first time! What’s not to love about them, honestly?
Victor Vale (Vicious)
I loved Victor when I was reading through “Vicious”, I loved how he thought he was playing the part of the villain but in reality he was a pretty good guy. I adored his soft spot for Sydney and Mitch!
Do we have any bookish boyfriends/girlfriends in common?
Any that are from the same books listed?
Who are some of your favorite bookish boyfriends or girlfriends?
Let me know in the comments!
Sevro is not your typical book boyfriend, but I get it. I love him to pieces. And I love Kaz Brekker to probably an unhealthy degree.

He definitely isn’t but thank you I’m glad you get it! I wasn’t sure I wanted to include him or not but he’s pretty underrated in this sense so I did!
I think we all love Kaz Brekker to an unhealthy degree, it’s like a rite of passage into the book blogging community haha! 🙂

I can’t believe I forgot Jon Snow on my own list! *Inserts shame bell…you know the one*

I do know the shame bell, haha! I honestly thought of him last because for some reason I forget about book characters that have been adapted into TV or movies? I don’t know why! 🙂

I feel you! Jamie from Outlander was last on my list too, and I’m like surely the TV adaptations should be fresher in my mind! lol

I also love Sevro! 🙂 He just lights up the page!
I also love Jon Snow – I rarely care for the “lead”, but he’s one of the very few lead characters I adore.

I know right?! I was so worried I was the only one who just adored his character, glad you love him too!
I also 100% agree with you on the “loving the lead character” thing because I’m usually more for side characters but not Jon! 🙂

He’s a fantastic character! I was worried I was the only one who adored him to bits and pieces but I’m so glad to be wrong! I liked the fanart as well and I discovered now I’m obsessed with finding it haha!
That reminds me of the Road to El Dorado gif where they’re saying “Both? Both. Both is good.” haha I can relate to that so much right now! 🙂

Glad I’m not the only one who though Dr. Winthrop was swoon worthy! I don’t even know what it was about him because he wasn’t the nicest guy a lot of the time but still….so handsome haha!
Good! I want to be a “Vicious” enabler, haha! 🙂

AH I’m so glad you love Lucy too! I haven’t really heard anyone ever mention her, ever and she is such a fantastic character. And of course the Weasley twins because how could anyone not love those two?! 🙂

She really is! Not to post spoilers in your comment thread here, but I was sooooo bummed about a certain something that happened at the end of Volume 1… 😦

Since “Six of Crows” is a book I’ve not yet read, anytime I see these characters on others list, I get excited. Makes me so happy to see them as characters we root for or swoon over because those are the best kind – and this makes me have all the higher hopes for these stories. 🙂
When it first released, I heard a lot about “The Diabolic” too, but haven’t read it either. Maybe someday.

I hope you enjoy “Six of Crows” when you get to it because it really is a great book and the characters are definitely the best part!
Same goes for ‘The Diabolic’ I hope you enjoy that one as well when you get a chance to read it! Both of these books are worth the hype in my opinion! 🙂
