This week's Top Ten from The Broke and the Bookish asks for the Top Ten Characters I’d Like To Switch Places With For 24 Hours.
1) Daniel Sempere, “The Shadow of the Wind” – I want to explore the Cemetery of Forgotten Books so bad I can taste it!
2) Claudia, “From the Mixed-up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler” – Who wouldn’t want to spend the night in the MET.
3) Cassandra, “I Capture the Castle” – I’d love to spend one day in that drafty old castle, drinking tea and day dreaming.
4) Lizzy Darcy, “Pride and Prejudice” – I want to switch after they’re married! I could spend the day wandering around Permberley and enjoying the company of the lovely Mr. Darcy.
5) Watson, Sherlock Holmes Books – I don’t think I would want to be Sherlock, because I have a feeling it would make my brain explode, but I would love to see him at work.
6) Trillian, “The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy – What girl wouldn’t want to be whisked off on adventures around the galaxy?
7) Hemingway, “A Moveable Feast” – Yes, I know this book is nonfiction and Hemingway is a real person, but lets forget that just for a second. I would love to spend a day in Paris during the 1920s, hanging out with Gertrude Stein and Fitzgerald and Pound, drinking and talking about life and what we’re all writing.
8) Jeeves, Jeeves and Wooster Books – P.G. Wodehouse’s infamous valet knows just about everything. It would be so much fun to be in his shoes for a day.
9) Arwen, “Lord of the Rings” – She lived in Rivendell and married Aragorn, yes please.
10) Hermione Granger, “Harry Potter” – What can I say, she’s awesome and I’d love to explore Hogwarts!
