Literary Dinner Party Tag

Well, I was meandering through the blogosphere when I came upon this Literary Dinner Party tag over at Treskie's blog, Occasional Randomness. Thanks for this, Treskie! The thing I like about this tag is that you are tagging characters from books, instead of real people.

This is the first time I've ever done a tag, so here we go!

1. One character who likes to cook.

Granny Relda from The Sisters Grimm series. No one ever said that she had to be good at it, right?
Or maybe Caroline Ingalls from the Little House series by Laura Ingalls Wilder. She was always making my mouth water with her cooking! Or perhaps Marty from the Love Comes Softly Saga...So many choices!

2. One character who has money to fund the party.
 Who else but Ebenezer Scrooge from a Christmas Carol?



3. One character who might cause a scene.
Puck the Trickster King from The Sisters Grimm. I can totally imagine him doing something to cause a scene, like throwing sludge bombs at someone or shape shifting into an Orangutan....
 



4. One character who is funny/amusing.
Daphne from The Sisters Grimm. She is always coming up with new words, or just saying something that amuses me. (Can you tell that I love The Sisters Grimm?)



5. One character who is super social/popular.
Anne Shirley from Anne of Green Gables. She is totally social!
 

6. One villain.
Opal Koboi from Artemis Fowl.
 



7. One couple (doesn't have to be romantic).
Oh, definitely Holly Short and Artemis Fowl from the Artemis Fowl series. Yes, they might be bickering half the time, but they would be so funny!


8. One hero/heroine.
Ooh, Ooh! I know! Miri Larendaughter from Princess Academy and Princess Academy: Palace of Stone. I just love her, and she is most certainly a hero!
 



9. One underappreaciated character.
Grace or Carrie Ingalls from the Little House series. They just weren't talked about as much as Laura, Mary, Ma, and Pa were. And I think that they were great.


10. One character of your own choosing.
Sara from The Summer of the Swans. I think that her brother has Autism, (or something similar) and my brother does too, so we would have plenty to talk about. I understand how she feels, as well...

Well, there you go. These are the characters that I could come up with. That was really fun! Thanks again, Treskie!

TTFN!

  1. Ooh, I haven't read Artemis Fowl in a while. I LOVE Artemis. He is so cool by the last couple of books.

    Hmmmm. I may have to try the Sisters Grimm sometime soon. ;)

    I liked your answered, Sarah!

    Cheers!

    1. I agree! Artemis is awesome! Have you read the last book in the series yet? It was amazing! :)

      I highly recommend the Sisters Grimm. Those books are great.
