Swoonies…

Okay, Top Ten Tuesday.  b2bf5-toptentuesday2

This week The Broke and The Bookish wants to know what are your : Top Ten Books That Will Make You Swoon.

Now, I don’t really read a lot of swoonies in the traditional sense of the word, however, I will not be beaten!  I will find ten swoonies even if I fall over during the process.

  1. The Bronze Horseman by Paullina Simons – if you don’t swoon at this book then frankly you’re just beyond redemption!  That’s all.  Read it and weep!  One word: Alexander.
  2. The Outlander Series by Diana Gabaldon – all I can say is Jamie!
  3. The Rebel Angels by Gillian Philip – Seth McGregor… nuff said.
  4. The Gentleman Bastard series by Scott Lynch – and, in a step out of the ordinary I’m not swooning over the main man here but his buddy Jean Tannen – OMG!!
  5. Lord of the Rings – Aragorn

Well, I said I wouldn’t be beaten, but I fibbed.  I’ve only got five swoonies – but, they’re all so good that they count twice!

Hah, scrap the above, I’ve thought of some more:

  1. Gone with the Wind by Margaret Mitchell – Rhett Butler, you may not like him but ‘frankly my dear …..’
  2. Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte – moody Mr Rochester
  3. Wuthering Heights by Emily Bronte – Heathcliff – can those Bronte sisters write up a storm or what!

That’s it for me!  I’ve told you mine – so tell me yours…
