    Darcy!!!! Man, I think Lizzie Bennett and I are pretty much the same person.

    That, and I think I'll always have a soft spot for Holden Caulfield as well. You just wanna make everything better for him!
    I'm weary with right-angles, abbreviated daylight,
    Waiting for a winter to be done.
    Why do I still see you in every mirrored window,
    In all that I could never overcome?

    Who is Holden Caulfield? Which novel is he from? Just wondering....

    I started Pride and Prejudice a few days ago and I can see that I am going to fall in love with Mr. Darcy!

    Holden Caulfield is the leading character in J.D. Salinger's novel The Catcher in the Rye.

    Is it demented to say Rodion Romanovich Raskolnikov from Crime and Punishment? I always wanted to to be the soft light to his melancholy darkness.

    Again last night I had that strange dream
    Where everything was exactly how it seemed
    Where concerns about the world getting warmer
    The people thought they were just being rewarded

    I know what you mean about Holden Caulfield, just because he's so smart and perceptive and a rebel! Oh yeah and he's depressed,, well, I don't really know much about that but it certainly makes him interesting!

    Yeah, Black Flag, I'm with ya on the whole Elizabeth thing, from [I]Pride and Prejudice.[I] Also Elinor from Sense and Sensibility. Also the protagonist from Persuasion. Let's just face it...Jane Austen is hot.

    Yep... Im usually a dare-to-be-different kinda girl but I have to admit... Mr Darcy is rather dashing
    Although I do like Mr. Bingley too just because hes lovely...bless him.
