This week's question:

Who do you want to be? If you could choose any character from a book. What do you think that character looks like and what do you have in common?

 

Sheesh... this one's harder than one might think. There's so many characters out there that I've loved and connected with, that I've admired and wish I could be more like. 

 

My choice, as of right now, would be Blue from Maggie Stiefvater's The Raven Boys. Not that I'm full of energy or make things "louder" in the psychic sense (maybe in the literal sense sometimes, but not psychic). I felt connected in the way that interacted with people, with the fact that she tried to be different but at the same time she cared what others what to some extent. 

 

So what does she look like? I received a signed (this picture is from the internet, not my own personal one) book plate from Maggie with artwork she had done for The Raven Boys. Since the author herself drew it, I am inclined to say this is what Blue looks like. However, I will admit I pictured her with a bit of a softer face than this and with hair sticking up more. But otherwise, I'll go with this. :)
