Our Feature -Progress & Procrastination
Hey! I’m jfeldt. I love to read – duh! And this last December I set a goal to read a bunch of books off a Face Book challenge. I decided the best way to keep track was start a blog. BOY I’ve been hurled into the world of crazy.
I’m 50% through and hooked on blogging. Stop by and check out my journey. I’m slightly self-deprecating; totally laid back; and mostly un-organized. Also, I sort of make up the rules as I go along; but hey, I have fun, and who doesn’t like fun? Hope to see you around.
Q: Define what characteristics your favorite books share. Do they all have a kick ass heroine or is the hot love interest the Alpha Male?Well, naturally, I like kick ass heroines. I like strong women in the books I read. I don't relate to weak, simpering, submissive women. But I also like it when the female and male characters are equally strong. I tend to find slightly mouthy, sarcastic characters to be my favorites. A great example would be Georgia Mason from FEED by Mira Grant.
Not familiar with that character/book but I like both leads to be equally strong as well. old follower hopping through.
ReplyDeleteSarcasm is always a bonus for me! Its the best comedic relief and a real favorite of mine- especially in the male lead.

I completely and utterly agree! It's great to have a strong character in a book, and for them to be sarcastic and snarky. Nice answer! New follower, by the way. If you want to follow back, here's my link:

It's true it's better when they're equal, otherwise it's not so good.
