Ten Characters Who Would Make Great Leaders

Ten Characters Who Would Make Great Leaders

November 7, 2017 Posted by angelreads Features, Top Ten Tuesday 2 Comments

Top Ten Tuesday is an original feature/weekly meme created by The Broke and the Bookish. Each week they post a new Top Ten list that members at The Broke and the Bookish will answer. Everyone join as you please. This week’s topic is Ten Characters Who Would Make Great Leaders.

This week was so much fun. The characters that I chose are leaders of all different things from sports teams, to leading a rebellion. Some are already leaders and some I think would turn out to be great leaders. Like always these are in no particular order.  

leaders

Ruby from Frostblood and Fireblood: I love Ruby. Not only does she have a physical power, but she also has the drive to lead. I think that if she finds herself in the next book – she will a pretty great leader. Check out my reviews of Frostblood and Fireblood.

Lada from And I Darken Series: Okay this might be a little out there, but I think Lada is still a great leader. While she is driven by revenge – she will stop at nothing to get her land back. Her people. Her life. And I love that about her. She might just need a little compassion – but I just don’t think that will happen. Don’t forget to check out my reviews on And I Darken and Now I Rise.

Josh Walker from Full Measures: He might be all macho man sometimes, but in reality, he cares so much. Hence why I think Josh will be a fantastic leader, Weather it’s on the Ice or in the air – I think that he knows how to take control – Hallowed Ground anyone. 

Kell from A Darker Shade of Magic: While I have yet to finish the last book – I think that Kell would be a hell of a leader. He can fight and people listen to him in different ways. And well his has a few tricks up his jacket. 

Emelina from Ruined: She might not be your conventional leader, but she can kick butt. In Ruined she was in it for revenge, but after Avenged, I can see her becoming a leader. Helping her people and hopefully winning the fight. 

Magnus Chase from Magnus Chase and the Gods of Asgard series: I might be going out on a limb here, but I think Magnus could be a great leader – if he believes in himself.  I think for the most part he just does not believe that he can do it and that makes me sad. But I know that he can, he can fight and win. 

And that is it for this post! Do you agree with my leaders? Who are some of the characters that you think would be great leaders? Let’s Chat!

I have a love-hate relationship with this series. I have a love-hate relationship with this series. But I ended up really enjoying this one. It’s best friends to fake dating to-lovers. It’s always been you, bad-boy/good-girl, and I loved that. While Save Your Breath has quite a few tropes, it really leads itself to it, and it works. 

Aleks and Mia have known each other for years now. Since they were teenagers, that angst has been building up this whole time. And you can tell right from the get-go, it’s fantastic. I even wanted more of it, because I love pain. When Aleks went to live with Mia’s family as a teenager, sparks flew, but for many reasons, they both put their feelings aside. And well, now they are not only going to be fake-dating, but they might as well be engaged, too. 

I really enjoyed seeing how both Aleks and Mia both tried to hide how they were feeling throughout the whole ‘fake-dating’ situation, but anyone could see it. They know each other as no one else does. Aleks has a lot going on, and while I do think this was brushed over a little too much, Mia is his centre. Mia is a massive music star and is a female in the industry, so yeah, people don’t respect her. Obvsiouly because why couldn’t a female star be badass and write about the things that she has gone through? Aleks and Mia get each other, and that is very clear from the start; they are both just trying to squash everything. We get to see them slowly start to show how they feel, and well, one night it all explodes. 

Overall, I enjoyed this one a lot; it’s not my favourite of the series, but I had a great time reading it. I liked Aleks and Mia a lot as characeters and while I think the mental health aspect could have been explored a whole lot more, I can see why it wasn’t. The romance was slow and spicy, the angst was great, and the payoff for these two was what they needed.

Well February wasn’t the best reading month. I onl Well February wasn’t the best reading month. I only ended up reading 3 books in. 3 pretty fun books but one of my slowest readings months in a while. 

And I’m going to be honest here it’s because I’ve been constantly reading Heated Rivalry fanfics. 🤷‍♀️ I’m having the best time though. 

How was your reading in February? Any 5  star reads?
