I am returning with my new feature... Why I love which takes place on Wednesdays. Today's proclamation of love concerns our Book Crush
Why I Love...Achilles
I really had a difficult thinking of a character that really made me squee with delight. I thought of Rhett but we've already discussed his awesomeness. I also thought of Jacob Black but then I thought that Jade might dismember me or beat me to it. So I decided on Achilles from The Illiad. What?! I know but I thought it would be fun. Also, I'm not going to lie, I'm certainly thinking of Achilles from the movie Troy because I barely remember what happened in the book The Illiad. Otherwise, I would probably pick Katniss because emotional issues are sexy (I promise I'm in a healthy relationship. Promise!). Some of my difficulty may derive from the fact that I fall in love with characters a bit too easily. I have a crush on everyone!
How can you not like a man whose only weak spot is his Achilles heel? I have a crush on Achilles because he screams testosterone. That's pretty much it. I wish I was less superficial but I'mm finding that I'm not. He has a sense of family too. He loved his cousin, right? So that's something.
Help me out here. Somebody's got to have a better answer than me.
