(I'm saying this because I am as well, obviously).<br /><br />I regularly really start to care about the characters in books I read, but still manage to forget their names afterwards (I'm that bad with names). So here's a soulful couple I looked up: Georgina Maitland and Harry Pye from Elizabeth Hoyt's The Leopard Prince. Star-crossed lovers, *sigh*...Nynkehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08810044360681034104noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3217012316587200736.post-18579850384832811342009-05-27T16:02:29.131-04:002009-05-27T16:02:29.131-04:00Cindy, I'm with you on Jamie, but I have to imagin...Cindy, I'm with you on Jamie, but I have to imagine him without red hair. I had a bad experience with a red-headed guy when I was in college (sort of a stalking situation) so now any "dreaded red-headed man" pegs out my ick-o-meter. (Imagine how hard it is for me to watch CSI Miami?!?) <br /><br />Mari--My girls and I read Anne of Green Gables aloud and how we all wept together when Matthew Cuthbert died. That's a memorable character.<br /><br />Penelope--About the Romulan, I beg to differ a bit. His reason for being so evil was compelling, but that's what makes him a good villain, IMO. The best villains might be the hero but for a few bad choices. He suffered a deep personal tragedy so the universe has to suffer with him. I can pity his pain, but because he deals with it in such a heinous way, he's not hero material. But it makes him a realistic villain instead of a sad cartoon.<br /><br />I'll have to look for Elizabeth Peters. I've not read her.EmilyBryanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03542349086762747179noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3217012316587200736.post-45388803460553685612009-05-27T13:33:56.198-04:002009-05-27T13:33:56.198-04:00Oh my God, I just thought of another awesome coupl...Oh my God, I just thought of another awesome couple! (Now I am going to be totally preoccupied with this all day long...thanks a lot, Emily!). How about Sara Fielding and Derek Craven from Lisa Kleypas' book Dreaming of You. I LOVE them!

And, as far as characters I have fallen in love with....how about Nephret and Ramses from Elizabeth Peter's Amelia Peabody series...I have dreamt about them after reading her books! Elizabeth Peters is brilliant and that entire series is wonderful.Penny Watsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14729149456469452771noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3217012316587200736.post-49089196721014675902009-05-27T10:00:11.660-04:002009-05-27T10:00:11.660-04:00I love Anne Shirley from Anne of Green Gables!I love Anne Shirley from Anne of Green Gables!Marihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11377379401542936661noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3217012316587200736.post-14967592840238366492009-05-27T09:23:38.659-04:002009-05-27T09:23:38.659-04:00Jamie and Claire from the Outlander series.

Gone With the wind has had two sequels and even if the plot got a wee bit far-fetched at times, I wanted to know what happens. <br /><br />So far everyone who has seen Star Trek in my circle of friends has raved about it! Maybe I will give in and watch it.<br /><br />RachelRachel E. Monizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13983194017072589283noreply@blogger.com
