    I admit that when I was reading Gone with the wind I felt that Rhett Butler was described in such a way that he just had to attract you
    That was a year ago actually but I was still 16 then

    I would have to say either Nightfall, from The Legend of Nightfall by Mickey Zucker Reichert

    or Robin Hood from The Lady of the Forest by Jennifer Roberson

    Those two chars I fell in love more then any others I have read about thus far.

    ......................

    You know, every litnetter that's ever read any of my posts know which literary character I am in love with.

    I'm famous in the blogs and the General Chat section for lovin' Boromir.
    "The time has come," the Walrus said,
    "To talk of many things:
    Of shoes--and ships--and sealing-wax--
    Of cabbages--and kings--
    And why the sea is boiling hot--
    And whether pigs have wings."

    Heathcliff from Wuthering Heights...I know, call me twisted, but I love him!

    Marius from Les Miserables...a revolutionary who is also romantic in the literal sense of the word.

    Newland Archer from Age of Innocence...for many reasons.

    Alright that is pretty dorky. Elizabeth Bennet? She so uptight and repressed. I like the fiery women in novels. Jane Eyre is a good one. I kind of like Sue from Jude the Obscure, but with all the Victorian novels the heroine has to become married and soon her character is diminished so much by having to be the sympathetic and caring wife. Look what happens to Sue. I think Olga from Goncharov was kind of hot, too. She seemed witty and intelligent--a little fickle maybe, though. Hmm, I'm not sure what exactly makes a good woman in literature, but some combination of those female leads I think is close.

    I, as well, liked Natasha from war and peace but I liked Catrina Ivanova in Crime and Punishment she was so hot headed and always there for her kids.
    For the men I liked Rodya in Crime and Punishment for his crazyness and the strong hold of his believes and ideas which I found to be pretty inspiring. I also liked in Ivan in The Karmazov Brothers for I have no idea what reason lol.

    To get things clear, they have to firstly be very unclear. But if you get them too quickly, you probably got them wrong.

    Maybe Liz is like that on the surface...But I bet when Mr. Darcy got her home...
    Jane Eyre is too, oh, I don't know — "good". She would someone who insisted you go to church twice on Sunday or be damned. And forget about letting a curse word slip, or having a drink with the boys once in a while.
    As much as I love Thomas Hardy, "Jude" was one of his first books I read of his and I don't remember too much about Sue. But there's nothing wrong with being a sympathetic wife.
    I don't believe I met Olga.

    That's EASY! Back in the 60s it my ideal doll was Honey West:





    Alas, she was only a work of fiction!
