Top Ten Tuesday- 5 musical theatre and 5 bookish couples I love



Hi! Welcome back to Top Ten Tuesday. This weekly meme is hosted by Jana @thatartsyreadergirl and it was brought together out of a love of list and bringing the book blogging community together. This week is a love freebie and because I always love weaving my love of musicals into other posts on here.

The Musical couples 

 1- Maria and Tony from West Side Story

This is a classic musical theater couple from one of my favorite movies. Their plot is inspired by Romeo and Juliet, and they're very sweet. 

2- Alyssa Green and Emma Nolan from The Prom

The Prom is a more recent musical, I've not seen it yet, but I love them a lot. Throughout the story, they go through trials and tribulations, but as a couple, they come out better and get their happy ending.

3- Elphaba and Fiyero from Wicked

I've seen Wicked more times than I can count, but it's at least over 5. Anyway, Fiyero might not be the best guy when we first meet him, but he cares about Elphaba. They're different sure, but they both balance each other out. 

4- Amalia and Georg from She Loves Me

This is an older musical that inspired a piece for another site last valentine's day. The musical is a light-hearted comedy and the plot doesn't have a lot of drama, or sad parts.  The couple is so sweet and so cute. They work together, but you also see their relationship blossom through their correspondence. 

5-  Anastasia and Dimitry from Anastasia

Many people know this musical and the relationship. Anastasia Romanov was a woman who lost her family, and all of her memories of them. Dimitry is the commoner who wants the reward money for finding Anastasia. As the story progress, the two form a romance and they're adorable.

The Bookish couples 

 1- Cath and Levi from Fangirl

I have not talked about Fan Girl in a while-which is shocking to me.  You all know these two, but they're two nerds and so sweet. I love seeing how they get together and how their relationship starts.

2- Claudia and Gideon from Foolish Hearts

These two are sweet like most of these other couples on this list. I love seeing how they develop over the course of the story. 

3- Juliet and Dawsey from The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society

This Historical Fiction was very good and was very different. I loved seeing Juliet and Dawsey grow closer to each other and how sweet they are.

4-  Simon and "Blue" from Simon vs the Homo Sapiens Agenda

Yes, I know who Blue is, but I don't want to spoil the plot of the story. Simon and Blue are precious and I love them.

5- Feyre and Rhys from The Court of Thorns and Roses series 

I wanted one Fantasy couple. They're another one who had a lot of struggles, but once again, they came out better in the end.

Top Ten Tuesday- characters that remind me of myself

Welcome back to Top Ten Tuesday! This is a weekly meme where readers discuss ten or whatever number you would like to have based on a prompt. Our host is Jana at  thatartsyreadergirl . Our topic this week is Characters Like Myself. I am going to take a two words that each character has in in my opinion,  and discuss how that relates to me  as well. 1- Cather Avery from Fangirl Writer- At her core, Cath is a writer, and she loves her stories. I am a writer of both Fan Fiction and original stories like Cath so this was an automatic in for this. Both of us love our work and we tend to through ourselves whole hardheartedly into our work. Sisters- I might have mentioned this on the blog before but I have a younger sister and we’re only roughly 18 months a part. Cath and her twin sister Wren are polar  opposites and this is me and my sister. My younger sister is an extrovert and into science. I on the other hand,  am an introverted creative bookworm.  ...

Top Ten Tuesday books/ series I would recommend to someone who says don’t like to read.

  Hi! Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by Jana @ thatartsyreadergirl . This weekly meme was born out of a love of lists and bringing the book blogging community together. Each week, Jana will post a topic, and we will all make a list based on that topic. This week, the topic is Books Written Before I Was Born ( These can be books you’ve read or want to read! ) ( submitted by Davida Chazan @ The Chocolate Lady’s Book Review Blog ). I wasn’t feeling this, and so I went through and found a post from The Broke & the Bookish, and I did that. The original post can  be found here . I thought I would recommend some books from some of my favorite genres.   The Classics 1- Pride & Prejudice This is one of my favorite classics, and when making my list this week, I knew I needed to include it. The reason is that I think this is one of the best books by Jane Austen, and we use the story in a lot of modern media. 2- To Kill A Mocking Bird I was so surprised by how much...
