“Dreaming After Midnight” aka “My book boyfriend” is hosted by Missie at “The Unread Reader”.
It is a weekly article about your book crush, including stats, a picture of what you imagine he looks like and some quotes that made you fall for him.
Carlos Fuentes (from Rules of Attraction by Simone Elkeles ) I haven’t done a dream boyfriend article in a while, so I’ll try to take it slow with a character most of you are familiar with. I guess there are not too many people that haven’t swooned over a Fuentes brother in the past years, … Read more
Jasmine (from Amplified by Tara Kelly) So… I’ve made a promise to someone that I’ll write a ‘book girlfriend’ kind of article (for the reading male population to enjoy as well), and this is me keeping my promise. Hope you’ll like it! “Sure, I had pretty high expectations. […] But I had nowhere to go but … Read more
Sean (from Amplified by Tara Kelly) Amplified is one of my favourite books. It is amazingly funny and the characters are lovely and smart and (so very) witty. Every time I read it, I laugh until my face hurts and I fall for the romance (and the friendships created in it) all over again. “Welcome to … Read more
Froi (from Froi Of The Exiles by Melina Marchetta) “I’ll come and find you wherever you are. I’ll not stop breathing until I do.” [separator] What do we know about him? Do you remember him from “Finnikin of the rock“? Froi is a thief whom Evanjalin and Finnikin meet on their journey. He has a nasty attitude … Read more
Book Boyfriend #7: Henry from Catching Jordan by Miranda Kenneally. What we know: “Favorite color? Silver. Favorite band? Led Zeppelin. Favorite vacation? A cross-country trip with his dad to the Grand Canyon. Mustard or mayo? Ketchup. Birthday? December 1”. PROS: He is cute, funny, honest, caring, a good friend and a good football player…
Tucker (from Unearthly Series by Cynthia Hand) “And then I can feel what he feels. He’s waited such a long time for this moment. He loves how I feel in his arms. He loves the smell of my hair. He loves the way I looked at him just now, flushed and wanting more from him. … Read more
Shaun (from Newsflesh Trilogy by Mira Grant) I don’t read books about zombies, but with characters like Shaun and Georgia I would read anything and I bet I’d still love it no matter what. Seriously, I fell in love with Shaun from the first chapter in the first book and I was so happy to … Read more
Shadow (from Graffiti Moon by Cath Crowley) “ I like that about art, that what you see is sometimesmore about who you are than what’s on the wall. I look at this painting and think about how everyone has some secret inside, something sleeping like that yellow bird.” [separator] What do we know about Shadow? His real … Read more
Ian O’Shea (from The Host by Stephenie Meyer) “It’s not the face, but the expressions on it. It’s not the voice, but what you say. It’s not how you look in that body, but the thing you do with it. You are beautiful.” [separator] What do we know about Ian O’Shea? He is most probably “black-haired with oddly … Read more
Alex Fuentes (from Perfect Chemistry by Simone Elkeles ) “[Life]It is what you make it. If you think you can’t change the world, then go on and follow the path already carved out for you. But there are other roads to choose, they’re just harder to trudge through. Changing the world is’nt easy, but I … Read more
Etienne Saint Claire (from Anna and the French kiss by Stephanie Perkins) He’s so beautiful, so perfect. I’m dizzy. My heart pounds, my pulse races. I tilt my face toward his, and he answers with an identical slow tilt toward mine. He closes his eyes. Our lips brush lightly. “If you ask me to kiss … Read more
