Follow My Book Blog Friday is hosted by Rachel at Parajunkee's View and Alison at Alison Can Read. The point is to follow as many book blog as you can and make new friends! As part of the adventure, she gives a weekly question. And, this week, Sinnful Books is one of the featured blogs!!Q: You are a matchmaker -- your goal, hook up two characters from two of your favorite books. Who would it be? How do you think it would go?
A:
Wow, what a question this week! If I were to be completely honest, this matchmaker will have to abdicate. The main characters in my favorite books are either already in perfectly matched relationships, or do not wish to enter into one. It would be wrong of me to mess with that. Man, rereading that answer, I am such a killjoy!What would you guys do?
Congrats on being the feature! This was a difficult question, for sure. I picked side characters so I didn't have to break up big relationships, lol!

Thanks, sweetie!
DeleteI totally agree! It's so wrong to mess with the perfect relationships they've already established in books! If they were single, though, that'd be another story! :)

DeleteI agree. This was a hard one. Most of the couples in my books are perfect for each other.

Congrats on being the feature this week! I hope you get lots of new followers, like me!
ReplyDeleteThis was a hard question since all my my favorite characters are in a relationship already, or two.

That's why I decided to pick sidekick characters. The books I love already have great pairings. That's why I love them.
ReplyDeleteTotally agree!! This week's question was hard and I had a hard time thinking of characters :)

Congrats on being Featured! It was a tough question - but I did it anyway! It was a tough decision, and I think I picked two that could be broken up, once they met each other, it would be cool?!
ReplyDeleteHopping by - here's mine!
LOL. I kind of liked the challenge and did something with my two fav characters from my two favorite series.

Well it is definitely ok to have that opinion! I actually thought of it myself (:

Aw c'mon! Sure, the central couples shouldn't be messed with, but surely there's some lonely secondary characters out there! Third wheels in love triangles perhaps?

Whoops, that was totally not my FF post. This is.

ReplyDeleteHopping through. Congrats on being the follower! I often wish to abdicate the question as well. Especially this kind of question.

Hi there, hopping through. Heavy Metal and Rockabilly? I sooo need to follow you. This was a hard question...because in a story people usually are with who they should be.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on being picked as a featured blog! New follower.

Congrats on the follow! I couldn't think of any good pairings either, so I just concocted a bunch of really bad ones for fun.

This was a difficult questions. Congrats on being featured.
ReplyDeleteI'm already following. My #FF
Yeah, I had trouble with this question for the exact same reason! Old follower! My follow
ReplyDeleteIt was tough, wasn't it? Especially since the vast majority of what I read has romance in it, so the characters are already well settled. I ended up getting a bit evil, I'm afraid. After trying (in vain) to hook up my one bachelor hero (Harry Dresden from the Dresden Files) with a super-cool and tough chick, I ended up throwing my hands in the air and putting Thomas Raith, and incubus from the same series, together with Belle from Twilight...because I didn't like her. Sigh...when did I get this evil streak?
ReplyDeleteNice blog. New follower!

I agree it was hard. New follower. my ff http://jennreneeread.blogspot.com/2012/06/follow-friday-20-and-tgif-5.html
ReplyDeleteCongrats on being featured! I totally agree-- it just seems weird to tear up already-existing match-ups and pairing them with someone else!
ReplyDeleteNew follower :)
Here’s my hop
Congrats on being Featured!!!
ReplyDeleteI agree with you. That's a good answer. It's tricky removing characters from their settings, you know?
Nice feature and answers!! I agree. It's hard when the characters are a good match already!

Congrats! on being featured. A hard question, I agree.

I had a hard time picking a match too. SO I picked one that would definitely fail so I wouldn't be messing with anyone's happy endings lol! New Linky Follower
ReplyDeleteThis was so hard for me, too! I tried to think of secondary characters and even that was hard to sift through.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the feature!!!
My FF
Congrats on the feature!
ReplyDeleteThis was a tough question because I completely agree with you--the main characters usually either end up with the person they should be with or end up deciding to stay single for at least the moment. Who am I to mess with that? I think that is why my answer focused more on secondary characters because I do not always think they get what would make them happy.

I kind of agree with what you're saying. When people complain about who characters end up with in books, I always think it was the author's story, they wrote it how they wanted it or saw it happen. So for my answer, I just picked people with similar stories. New follower, here is mine:
ReplyDeletehttp://misclisa.blogspot.com/2012/06/feature-and-follow-friday-6-1-12.html

This was my first FF and found the question to be very difficult as well. I literally sat in front of my laptop for half an hour trying to come up with an answer. I finally had to sit in front of my bookshelves to get some inspiration. I came up with Butch from JR Wards Black Dagger Brotherhood series and Betsy Taylor from Mary Janice Davidson's Undead series. No real big reason except for she has an affinity for designer shoes and he for fine suits. Also, he's a Bostonian and she a Minnesotan, I thought listening to them talking would be funny.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on being featured this week. I'm also a new follower.

Thanks for the comment and your not alone and you can tell I a read to many Romance books or another genre.
