Top Ten Tuesday: Fave Minor Characters!

Good morning everyone! It's time for Top Ten Tuesday, my favorite meme and hosted by The Broke and The Bookish. This week's topic is Top Ten Favorite Minor Characters. Hopefully I can think up ten!

1. The Weasley twins from Harry Potter: Fred and George were really only there for comic relief and because they are crazy geniuses are inventing, but I just adore them.

2. Jenks from Dead Witch Walking: I actually hate this book, mainly because the main character annoyed the crap out of me. However, Jenks is awesome. Jenks is a pixy who makes really snide remarks but deep down is caring and stuff. He's a little tiny bundle of cool.

3. Mary from Pride and Prejudice: I always feel a little bad for Mary. But she's so cool in her own way - she loves to read and wants to be thought of as smart, and she's not as stupid and annoying as Kitty and Lydia. Sure, she's a bit pretentious, but brains in a girl count for a lot.

4. Abby from You Suck: A Love Story by Christopher Moore: Abby is a Goth girl with a snarky sense of humor, and all about helping her vampire friends attempt to live a somewhat normal life and escape those trying to do them in. Abby makes me laugh out loud A LOT.

5. Kona from Fluke by Christopher Moore: Kona is a white fake Rastafarian with a horrid Jamaican accent, but he is absolutely hysterical. He was definitely one of my favorite characters in Fluke.

6. Vizzini from The Princess Bride: Okay, he's not around for long and he's a total jerk, but his constant "Inconceivable!" just makes me giggle. I'm seriously giggling as I type this.

7. Young Ian from the Outlander series: Young Ian and funny as a youngster, and then later grows really serious but kind of badass after some bad shit happens to him. I would love it if Diana Gabaldon gave Ian his own whole book someday.

8. Sieh in The Hundred Thousand Kingdoms: Sieh is a really old god who often looks like a child, because... he pretty much is. His disposition and personality are very child-like, but he's also really powerful and smart. I'm very, very excited that the third book in this series is going to be all about him.

9. Devi from The Name of the Wind: Devi is one of those characters who seems really likable and trustworthy, but might turn into a problem at a moment's notice. She is however super-cool - she's an illegal moneylender, and used to be a member of the Arcanum. She's really, really powerful, but also cute as a button.

10. Roran from the Eragon series: Roran is Eragon's cousin, but I love how tough he is. His role definitely grows as the series goes on and he grows up in many ways. And his weapon of choice is a hammer! Awesome in so many ways.

Alright, I did it! Minor characters add so much to a book, I think. What are some of your faves?
