This was a hard topic this week. When it comes to books that I dislike I tend not to pay as much attention to them as I could, so I don't have many characters that I like from them because I don't remember them well enough. However, there are some non-favorite books where I liked a character, so I managed to find a few characters for this topic. So, here are my top four characters I liked in non-favorite books.
- Maxon from The Selection series by Kiera Cass - This series was one of the most frustrating series I've ever read. The main character, America, was constantly making poor decisions and could be, again, frustrating. However, there was one character in the book that helped keep me reading, and that was Maxon. Maxon is a prince in this world and is one of the love interests of America. He is kind and funny and just an enjoyable character to read about.
- Beth from Little Women by Louisa May Alcott - I definitely enjoyed reading this book, but I wouldn't say it was one of my favorite books, so Beth makes the list. Beth is one of the main characters in the book, and I felt like I could really relate to her. I wish the book focused a little more on her than they did.
- The Darkling from the Grisha Trilogy by Leigh Bardugo - While I loved her Six of Crows Duology, I didn't love the Grisha Trilogy. There were many parts I liked, but also a lot that frustrated me. Oddly enough, my favorite character was the Darkling. He was just a fascinating character to read about and I would have liked to have learned even more about his background and how he came to be the way that he is in the books.
- Fanny Price from Mansfield Park by Jane Austen - Fanny is the main character in Mansfield Park. I thought she was a great character, however I hated just about every other character in that book. Fanny was a kind girl who's relatives walked all over her whenever they felt like and practically ignored her otherwise. I think she deserved so much better than what she got.
