road trip Wednesday- Fave Literary Couples

Road Trip Wednesday is a blog carnival where the YA Highway posts a question, and the community answers it on their own blogs.

This week's question: Who are your favorite literary couples?You know -- the ones you like by themselves, but LOVE together!


In book form it's Anna and St. Claire.  Hands down.  Sure most people will say Bella and Edward, but no I vote for the painfully realistic and totally lovable Anna and St. Claire.     What's to say, Anna is every girl.  And St Claire is British, American and living in France.  Come on!  Even the iciest hearts have to melt a little bit.  He loves his mom, his dad is a jerk, he's kind and cuter then a basket of puppies. 


My favorite TV couple... 
Josh and Donna of the West Wing.  They work for the President, Josh is Donna's boss and they are both madly in love, but they aren't willing to risk their jobs or the reputation of the President to make the first move.  Beside Jim and Pam on the Office, they are the best TV couple.   



Hey, I'm hosting a cool new blogfest, Gone but not Forgotten, on March 4.  You list your top 5 TV shows no longer on the air.   It's a fun and easy to find new blogs and have other people discover your blog.  Sign up if you get a chance.

  6. I feel like I'm going post to post saying "I need to read that!" But I do. Anna, we have a date soon.

  8. I love Emma and Mr. Knightley (I said that over on Holly's blog) and, showing my true shameful literary colors, I love Stephanie Plum and Joe Morelli in the Janet Evanovich novels. There's something stable about their instability. :)

    For TV, it's Ned the Pie Maker and Chuck from Pushing Daisies. That's pure sexual tension goodness and the fact that they were really in love made it all the more wonderful and sad.

  13. I really need to find a copy of this book--and by the sound of it, I need to find me a real-life St. Claire, too! ;)

  15. HOW COULD I FORGET! They are seriously one of the most fun and realistic couples in YA that I have ever read. Next to Ron and Hermione, who I did manage to remember (along with everyone else). SIGH. Etienne, y r u so hott

  16. LOVED Anna & Etienne. Maybe I'm a masochist, because their relationship was so up and down, but my all-time-fav would probably be Jessica Darling and Marcus Flutie from Megan McCafferty's Jessica Darling series. :)
