Top Ten Tuesday is a bookish weekly meme hosted by the Broke and the Bookish where bloggers share a list based on a weekly theme.
This week's topic is Top Ten Characters I Would Want With Me On A Deserted Island. I can't quite come up with ten so five will have to do for this week.
Katniss Everdeen from The Hunger Games Trilogy
Plain and simple, she's a good huntress. She'll make sure there something to eat.
Finnick Odair from The Hunger Games Trilogy
While Katniss hunts and forage the land for food, Finnick will fish.
Now that food and safety is quite settled, the other three would be for company.
Mr Rochester from Jane Eyre
I'm sure a few days living in a deserted island would get depressive after awhile. Rochester is certainly a character who would draw out a quiet person and talk.
Myfanwy Thomas (the second one) from The Rook
She is quite a rambler and very funny. Someone who would lighten the mood ...certainly she rambled more the more tense the situation.
Gansey from the Raven Cycle
Gansey has it all doesn't he. Wealth, brains and friends. Trustworthy and loyal, he is a great friend and would make good company. Being a smart determined person he'll probably find a way out of the deserted island too.
I picked that pair from the Hunger Games as well. Myfanwy is a great choice, both for her rambling and her excellent organization and planning skills.
ReplyDeleteGreat that you've read The Rook too. I haven't come across many that have. I can't remember if the 2nd Myfanwy has great organization skills...if she hasn't, I'm sure she'll eventually develop it.
DeleteI have Katniss on my list this week too. I think she's such an obvious choice! :-)
ReplyDeleteI know right! She's a tough girl.
DeleteI wouldn't mind having Gansey, too, but not because of his survival skills.Ha!
ReplyDeleteGreat choices! Katniss and Finnick would probably be on my list too :)
ReplyDelete- Allie
Haha ya...land and water covered.
DeleteI have Katniss on my list as well, but I forgot about Finnick. He would've been perfect! :) Great list. :)
ReplyDeleteHere's my TTT
:) you'll need seafood once you're tired of deer or rabbits or what ever the land has to offer.
DeleteGreat choices and I really like your justifications! I picked Katniss too (it seems most people did)!
ReplyDeleteHere are my Top Ten!
Haha...I don't think Katniss is the frolic kind. She is so very serious isn't she.
ReplyDeleteGood choices! Katniss is on my list this week too. I'd definitely want Katniss for her skills! I should've added Finnick too.
ReplyDeleteKatniss and Finnick both made my list, too. :) Great choices - I think Mr. Rochester's a great choice, I love your reasoning!
ReplyDeleteDang! Katniss was on my list too. It seems like everyone thought she'd be a good pick.
