Top Ten Characters Who Have More Guts Than Me

Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted by The Broke and the Bookish where we make lists of bookish things! 

This week's topic was Top Ten Characters Who "X". We got to fill in the blank. I decided to go with characters that are braver than me, which, let's face it, is pretty much all of them. But I was able to pick the ten bravest and list them here.

All of these characters definitely have more guts than I do? What did you pick for your topic this week? Any other characters you would add to my list?

  1. I have to agree with that every single one of these characters are braver than me, too. Even the ones I haven't even met yet. I love a heroine that has a lot of strength--she inspires us readers to try to become stronger ourselves. :)

    I would never be able to be in Dauntless either. Ever. I'll join you in Erudite.

    1. Yes, exactly. Strong heroines are just so inspiring. I wish I could say I could be in Dauntless, but nope. We can read books in Erudite so that's where I'm hanging around. Lol.

  2. haha probably most characters have more guts than me being the baby that I am. I haven't read all of these books but I LOVE Hazel Grace, Celeana, Katniss, Queenie, and Ismae <333 Great topic!

    1. Yeah, that's very true. I had a hard time narrowing it down because so many characters are braver than me. Lol

  3. Aww... I really love Verity and Hazel. I need to check out the other books. Thanks!

  4. I haven't read them all, but I agree on Katniss, Elisa, Tris & Hazel. They are SO brave! I actually think I could be Dauntless, because the train jumping thing is fun, plus I would love to learn how to defend myself (I'm as skinny as Tris, lol). I really admire Hazel because of her attitude. She had all the reasons in the world to fall apart, and yet she was really strong. Great choices!

    1. Yeah, I would definitely fail at Dauntless. I can sit here and say that I could totally jump off a moving train, but I definitely couldn't... lol. Awww Hazel... *tears up*

  5. Oh man, great list! I so agree with all of these, especially Verity!

  6. haha I knew Celaena would be on this list. SHE IS SO BADASS.
    I agree with every character on the list! Actually, I think most YA dystopian/high fantasy characters would probs go on the list of characters who have more guts than I do. I'm the type to crawl under my blanket and refuse to come out when faced with something scary lol :P

    1. I know right?? She's my favorite. I wish I could be best friends with her.

      It's true. I am a coward. Lol. Faced with these situations, I would curl up in a ball and just cry.

  7. My list would be way longer than 10 because pretty much everyone has more guts than I do. I even think Erudite is too tough of a faction for me, I'm such a wimp I would have to pick Amity. :)

    Celeana…yes, what a badass she is. And Katniss, Tris, Paige…basically all of them! I still haven't read Code Name Verity. I keep hearing such great things, I should definitely get on that. Great list! ~Pam

    1. Lol, yeah that's true. I might die from stress if I was in Erudite. They are very competitive there.

      What? You haven't read Code Name Verity!!! You need to read it! Oh my gosh, I bawled my eyes out, but it was so freaking good.
