T5W: Favorite Minor Characters

For this week's Top 5 Wednesday topic is Favorite Minor Characters. Minor characters are less than a sidekick or a side character (but not in our hearts!) Everyone will have a different definition of what makes a minor vs. a side character.


These are those characters that I wish had more part in their stories...

1. Rue - Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins: Rue was only in the series for the first book, but was one of my favorite characters. She was everyone's sister. I loved all that she stood for and the way her and Katniss developed their relationship.
2. Daito and Shoto - Ready Player One by Ernest Cline: Brothers in the book, both Daito and Shoto assist in finding the keys to the Halliday's easter egg. I loved their quirkiness and involvement throughout the book. I am beyond excited for the movie that comes out on March 30, 2018.
3. Emmitt Cullen - Twilight Series by Stephenie Meyer: Emmitt is such a great brother character. Always joking with everyone and being there for everyone really showed how much of a family man he was. He always watched out for everyone else and seemed to be a big teddy bear of sorts.
4. Luna Lovegood - Harry Potter by J.K. Rowling: Luna is such a fun and goofy character. I loved her individuality throughout the book. Although we don't see her a lot through the series, I feel her role is pretty important to the overall story.
5. Julian Jacos - Red Queen Trilogy by Victoria Aveyard: Julian was a beloved father figure for Mare. I enjoyed his kindness and loving nature, even with his apparent hidden messages. I'd love to see more characters like him.
