Top Ten Tuesday: Top Ten Characters I Would Crush On If I Were Also A Fictional Character

Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly feature hosted by The Broke and the Bookish. Each week, we'll make a list of our top ten something and this week, it's the Top Ten Characters I Would Crush On If I Were Also A Fictional Character. 
I realise I haven't posted a TTT for a couple of weeks as I have been so busy and I apologise for that, I've really missed it. Also, I haven't posted a review for a while either for this same reason, but I am re-reading the Bloodlines series by Richelle Mead in order to write a fantastic review on The Indigo Spell which should be up in a few days, so keep an eye out for that. Now for the list!

1. Adrian Ivashkov of the Vampire Academy & Bloodlines series'
Okay, so he has been my number one fictional crush for so long and all the old feelings I had for him when reading Vampire Academy have just come rushing back as I started reading Bloodlines again. If I was a character in these books, I would definitely be crushing on him. Though he wasn't the best person in Vampire Academy, his character has evolved so much in the spin-off series that I love him even more. 
2. Harry Potter of the Harry Potter series (obviously)
Harry is a beautiful person. Courageous, smart, dedicated, friendly, the Chosen one, etc. I would no doubt be crushing on him if I were in this series. He could teach me all sorts of offensive spells and we would have Hogwarts classes together and our eyes would meet across the room and he would smile at me and then we would buy Butterbears and drink them in Hogsmeade. Wouldn't that be fun?
3. Patch of the Hush, Hush series
I recently finished reading this entire series and Patch has been on my mind for a while now. How could you not crush on this guy? 
4. Peeta Mellark of The Hunger Games trilogy
Cinna was always my favourite character in this series, but Peeta was my crush. Not just because he's good looking, but he is an amazing character that has developed so much throughout the series. After I read what happened to him in Mockingjay, which sent my fangirl side wild, how could you not have a sympathetic side for this guy?
5. Jacob Black of the Twilight series
I was a Jacob fan since the first book and his character was always my favourite. My best friend even got me a phone sock that said 'Team Jacob' on it for my birthday a few years ago. 
6. Stefan Salvatore of The Vampire Diaries series
I haven't actually finished this series yet, I've only read the first four I think, but I'm a huge fan of the show and Stefan has always been my favourite Salvatore brother (well, most of the time). 
7. Roland Sparks of the Fallen series
Everyone I know who has read this series is in love with either Daniel or Cam, but I have a special place for Roland in my heart, with his easy-going nature, his slightly rebellious bad-boy side, and most of all his compassion and loyalty to his friends.
8. Balthazar of the Evernight series
This one doesn't require an explanation. Those who have read this series will understand my little obsession with this vamp. 
9. Jake Thorn of the Halo series
I haven't read this series in a while and I am still yet to read the last one, but based on the knowledge I have of this character, I like him. Yes I know, he's evil and a demon but this is just my secret love for fictional bad boys coming out. Plus, I love his wit. In real life, I go for the nice guys, but when it comes to books, I just can't seem to resist the bad boy characters. 
10. Willy Wonka of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory
I'm going to be a little different this week and go with Willy Wonka who I doubt is on anyone else's TTT list this week. I know he's not the most attractive character (Johnny Depp movie version aside) and his age is a little on the old side (sorry), but he owns a chocolate factory. Plus, he is a very interesting character and this was one of my favourite childhood stories. So it's not exactly a romantic crush, just more of a... I like you and I want your chocolate crush. 

That's all for this week, if you've read this far, thank you! Please let me know if you share any of these crushes or let me know the ones I missed and I look forward to reading and replying to all of your comments! :)

  1. I love that you are team Jacob- I certainly wasn't. But Edward didn't make it to my list. I liked Patch in the first book, but the others...

    Happy Reading,

    1. Hahaha! I watch the show too and Ian is one beautiful man. Personality wise, I go with Stefan which is why he made my list this week. Thanks for the follow, I've followed you back :)

  3. Lol, we are on total opposite sides with at least three of these (Dimitri Belikov has been MY number one for years)! I guess that means we'd get along because we would be chasing the same guys, haha.

    1. Haha! I do love Dimitri, but Adrian was always my number one, though people who disliked him in VA are starting to like his character as it evolves in Bloodlines. Thanks for the comment Niki! :)

  4. Haha using poor Mr. Wonka for his chocolate factory. I'm right there with you! I, too, have love for Jake Thorn because he's the bad guy. In real life, probably not so much, but book wise, HOT! haha.
    Great list :)

    1. Haha Mr. Wonka won't mind! Jake Thorn just has that perfect bad boy persona that I love in my book boyfriends, but I agree completely, I wouldn't go for him in real life either.
      Thanks for the comment! :)

  5. Haha. I love that you added Willy Wonka to your list! You own a chocolate factory? Let's get married :-P.
    Harry Potter almost made it to my list, but I opted for Ron instead. An odd choice.. ?
    And I can't believe I forgot all about Jacob? How was that even possible?!

    1. Haha thanks Jade! We should get married! :)
      No I don't think adding Ron is an odd choice, I love him just as much as I love Harry, especially in The Deathly Hallows. And poor Jacob!
      Thanks for the comment! :)

  7. That's and awesome list. I too have always been "Team Jacob". I learned to like Patch over the series, but at first I totally didn't get him. I also like that you put Jake on your list. I also need to read the last book. As for me, I am one of those Cam fans. Thanks for visiting my TTT.

    1. Thanks for the comment, I loved your TTT this week. :)
      I like Cam, but not as much as some of the other characters from that series.
      I didn't get Patch at the start either, but I love him now.

  9. Woooo! Stefan! I really don't like Damon in the books or the show. I also like Peeta and Adrian, though I didn't add them to mine.

    1. Haha wooo Stefan! I didn't like Damon at the start of the show, but if you've been watching season 4, you'll probably learn to love him.
      Peeta and Adrian are just fabulous. :)
