If you could be reincarnated as any fictional character, which would it be?
Ok, this was difficult for me as I am sure it was for everyone else. There are just too many great characters and my love for dystopian novels doesn't help me much. Dystopian novels are filled with brilliant, strong characters but let's face it they go through the most challenging things. I am just not sure I would be up for that. So I continued to rack my brain for other characters and then I remembered one particular character that I loved.
The main character from Inkheart, Meggie Folchart, was one of my favorite characters and books growing up. I have always loved reading and books and Meggie's ability to get in and out of Inkheart is amazing. I also remember relating to her and her father's great relationship. My father and I continue to be very close even now that I live most of the year at college. As I have gotten older I also have admired, and been incredibly jealous of, the Aunt's huge home filled with books. It has always been a dream of mine to have a library, although with the digital age of books I am not sure how that will become a reality.
Other than that I of course would love to be reincarnated as Hermione Granger or Lucy from Narnia. Both those characters are so different yet intriguing and the worlds they call home are utterly amazing. They all remind me of my childhood.
So, that is who I would choose, but who would you choose?
Inkheart is awesome!!! Great pick. I loved those books as a kid!
ReplyDeleteThanks! Something about being literally sucked into a book is thrilling to me. :)
DeleteOooh Lucy from Narnia!! I never thought of that, that's a good one!!
ReplyDeleteI love her! She is one of my favorite characters in that series. I checked out your blog. It is very nice I like your post for this week!
DeleteI have this one sitting on my shelf, but so far I've only seen the movie. O_O And Lucy from Narnia is a great one! I'd love to have tea with Mr. Tumnus. Then again, I might be confusing this with wanting to have tea with James McAvoy. :P
ReplyDeleteI can fully understand wanting to sit down for tea with James McAvoy anytime. :)
DeleteI love The Thief Lord by Cornelia Funke, but couldn't seem to get into Inkheart. It's a bit of a shame, since it seems to be quite popular, and it was even made into a movie featuring one of my favourite actresses (Helen Mirren). I might have to try reading it again someday.
ReplyDeleteI think I'd have to choose either a heroine from a Jane Austen novel (probably Elinor Dashwood from Sense and Sensibility or Anne Elliot from Persuasion) or Artemis Fowl, just for his intelligence. :)
I was thinking about Jane Austen even though I haven't read must of her writing (other than PRIDE AND PREJUDICE). That period in history fascinates me. :)
