Your love...Debbie, trust me and read Poison Study. Your love of Valek will grow :) I have yet to read Vampire Academy, but heard lots about the guys in it!<br /><br />BookMaid, I love Edmond from Count (but, not really the movie version, mostly the book). As far as Mr. Darcy, I think I still like Colin Firth better, but Matthew McFadyen was not bad. Especially since he was playing such an iconic character!melissa @ 1lbrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03292714636311546457noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5537602474198205550.post-4881098644308808772010-09-07T04:12:50.518-07:002010-09-07T04:12:50.518-07:00Oh yes, Mr Thornton is definitely a favourite as w...Oh yes, Mr Thornton is definitely a favourite as well. My favourite heroes (for the moment!) would have to rank:<br /><br />1. Mr Knightley (Northam) PS: I'm actually reading "Emma" for the first time, and he fits my imagination so accurately!<br />2. Mr Thornton<br />3. Edmond Dantes (Caviezel) Count of Monte Cristo<br />4. Mr Darcy (McFadyen)<br /><br />Would you guys prefer the Matthew McFadyen or the Colin Firth Mr Darcy?Jasmine Ruigrokhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01976708690026168727noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5537602474198205550.post-64348854503135234232010-09-07T03:51:41.191-07:002010-09-07T03:51:41.191-07:00Love Mr. Darcy!

Persuasion is actually my favorite of the Jane Austen novels. Silly me!<br /><br />BookMaid, I am definitely a fan of the Jeremy Northam Mr. Knightley. I don't know how Jane Austen did it!<br /><br />Lauren, I've loved Sir Percy for a long time, though I just recently read the book and loved it too.

I remember watching the show as a teen and being absolutely totally in love with him. I felt the same as you and really wanted Anne to figure things out sooner, because it was so obvious from the beginning he was the right man. Wow!

Captain Wentworth was sweet too.<br /><br />One of the best heroes that I have ever read is Sir Percy Blakeney of the Scarlet Pimpernel novel. I highly recommend the book.Laurenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15602756712271124931noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5537602474198205550.post-57506591267428492742010-09-04T15:53:15.556-07:002010-09-04T15:53:15.556-07:00Haha, two of them are my favourites as well!
