Top Ten Favorite Heroines from Books
I love this topic, because personally I love a book with a fierce, witty amazing heroine. Here are a few: 
1. Hermione from Harry Potter
This is a must. Everyone wants to be Hermione. She is brave, loyal, smart, and beautiful. 
2. Celaena from Throne of Glass
After reading the Throne of Glass series, I seriously fell in love with Celaena. She is so fierce and amazingly talented. 
3. Vera Dietz from Please Ignore Vera Dietz
I loved Vera, because I knew that she was going through a lot, but she was strong and somehow held herself together.
4. June from Legend
 
One of my absolute favorites. She is true to herself, a leader, and her character was written flawlessly. 
5. Jessica from the Running Dream
She went through so much. This book made me really think about what is important in life, and I think Jessica made that journey with me. 
6. Max from Maximum Ride
An oldie but a goodie. She is smart, and can lead her pack as well as anybody. She is incredibly strong as well and can beat off anything. 
7. Anne from Anne of Green Gables
Not your classic heroine, but I think that to be able to stay so positive, so radiant, and yet so utterly hilarious is something to be admired. 
8. Ridley from Beautiful Creatures
I always loved Ridley more than anyone else. I felt her pains, but I also felt that she had great power. 
9. Cinder from Cinder
Cinder is great. She is down-to-earth, strong-minded, but knows how to control herself. 
10. Nehemia from Throne of Glass
I can't forget Nehemia. Beautiful and ever so loyal to her country, I honestly think we need more people like her in real life. 

What are some of your favorite heroines?

  4. I love seeing Cinder on your list. I cannot believe I didn't think of her for my own list. I also like seeing Vera. I went with Astrid from Ask the Passengers by AS King. Vera is another strong King character. Great list!

  6. I thought about Anne of Green Gables, too. She didn't quite make the list, probably because I was only going with books, and even though I love reading way more than movies, I actually like the movies better in this instance. :)

    1. I haven't watched them! I probably should, because she is such a childhood classic.
