Hi Munchworms!
This week’s topic for The Broke and the Bookish‘s Top Ten Tuesday is “Book Boyfriends / Girlfriends” so… Let’s dive in!
I always went for the bad boys – no reason, just did – in both books and real life. For some reason, I’ve stuck with that for years now and it still hasn’t changed!
So prepare for a whole load of badness – I think…
As usual, every picture is the link to Goodreads so you can read the blurbs and add them to your TBR if you like!
Because.. Kaz! I honestly wish there was more Kaz to look forward to but, alas… That probably won’t be happening.
But not only Kaz, no. For some reason, Jesper also got stuck in my head. So, does that count as two BF’s?Yup! Duology, so I get to pick two. Ha!
Ronan. Definitely. Where I was first intrigued with Noah, I ended up thinking more and more about Ronan whenever I wasn’t reading one of the installments. Even now, I’d definitely go back just because I want Ronan back in my life!
Pretty sure it all started with that tattoo, though.. Add the dark, handsome and mysterious to it: sold.
No, I’m not going with Harry or Ron or Hermione! Nope! Luna on the other hand… Not necessarily a bookish GF, but I’m pretty sure she can be a blast to hang out with. Okay, maybe I was doubting to pick Hermione because books.
I want more Arsen! Again: dark, handsome and mysterious. Am I such a cliche?
This is one of the books that I got to review and I’m still looking forward to reading the sequel. I haven’t gotten my hands on it yet, but definitely will!
It’s been quite a while since I read these books, but I remember vividly that I was thorn between Derek and Lucas all the time. All. The. Time. They both got on my nerves, they both got on my soft side, then they got on my nerves again.
I need to reread these books and see if I can make up my damn mind…
Another series I desperately need to reread because I loved it so much! Okay, that was years ago and I might change my mind now but there’s only one way to find out?
I doubt it’ll change my mind about Patch though! Typical bad boy: ye-hes please!
And all the remaining spots go to… RHYSAND.
No, I’m not ashamed. Never will be. Rhysand all the way – even though Tamlin had me during ACOTAR, sneaky duck, but I’m never going back there again!
I want more paint and soup and.. and.. Just give me Rhysand, okay?
This is definitely one that will pop up everywhere today,
sorry if I’m the hundredth one to mention him, haha. Nope, not sorry.
Aaaand, that’s it! What do you think?
Are there characters on here that you dislike? That you just simply don’t agree with?
Reading update since I didn’t set a fixed TBR for OWNtober:
I started and finished Mary Poppins yesterday and am currently reading Windfall by Jennifer E. Smith. 55 pages in and loving it so far!
Also noticed that one of my eARC’s was perfect to tick off another prompt of my Popsugar Reading Challenge so Remember November should be a breeze – or so I hope…
YES! Kaz and Luna ❤ I adore both of them so much. I haven't even read The Raven books yet but I already love Ronan because he's all over my timeline (my friends are huge fans)

Haha, amazing! Now you definitely need to read the books and see if you can love him even more! [Or maybe he even disappoints you and you start liking someone else more?!]

hahaha I completely agree about Patch. I loved it years ago, not sure how I’d feel about it now. And Luna was one of my favorite characters in Harry Potter! Check my Top Ten Tuesday out at Amethyst Blue

Ronan made my list too. I crushed on him so hard! I have to disagree with Rhysand though *hides from evil glares*. Although he is a lovable character, and did make me grin quite often, he is not my favourite. I am definitely an Azriel girl ❤

OMG Hush, Hush. I read that series and I loved it but then again they were so bad in my opinion ugh. Just didn’t seem that original or well written but same, I adored Patch. I wanted myself a Patch

Pretty sure that was a period where there were tons of stories like that – if I remember correctly, haha. Funny how you can love something but still be disappointed by it at the same time. :’)
Same here! Patch would’ve been welcome to visit aaaany time back then.

I LOVE LUNA! She is so much fun and so at ease with her quirky self. I will admit that Ron was always my favorite HP character, but mostly because I married a redhead an awful lot like him (long before the books existed)!
Here is our Top Ten Tuesday.

Haha, you’re biased! Completely biased! [Although my boyfriend tends to the ginger-side as well, but less than his brother and sister. His beard is ridiculously ginger in the Summer though.. :’D]

I love Ronan too! Although I like all of the characters he is 100% my favourite! In terms of Six of Crows, I agree with Jesper who I love but if I had to choose I would have to go with Matthias! And omg, I had literally forgotten about the hush hush quartet, but you’ve reminded me that I had such a mega crush on Patch!! 😍😍

I liked them all as well; although Noah did freak me out at times, not that he could help it.
Jesper or Kaz for me! I love the mystery surrounding Kaz all the time.
Haha, every time I see the word “patch” I still have to think of him. Definitely need to reread them one day..

True, he made me laugh as well, but I always tend to go towards the more mysterious ones and Kaz’s definitely in that category, haha.

Some great picks! I love Kaz so much, I’m still hoping that there will be more Kaz in a distant future haha. There was so much story left to tell at the end of Crooked Kingdom!
And Ronan ❤ although Gansey has always been by personal favourite to be honest.
