Hi friends! Today’s topic for Top 5 Tuesday (hosted by Shanah!) is all about main male characters. Which led me to realize that I don’t read many books with boy main characters anymore asdfghjkl. I DON’T KNOW WHY THAT’S HAPPENED DON’T COME FOR ME OKAY. I promise, I’ll try to do better*. So let me just try to redeem myself right now.
*i’m probably going to forget that promise in 3…2…1…
So technically Nikolai shares the spotlight with Vika but it’s fine he’s the one who really stole the show. Nikolai is an enchanter with ridiculously unique magic which I want to use for myself and he’s just so interesting and sweet and ugh.
Percy’s perspective is probably the singular reason why this is my favorite Uncle Rick series ever*. He’s funny and loyal and his inner monologue makes me want to constantly roll on the floor laughing. Which isn’t much different from how I normally am, now that I think about it.
*wait hold on it’s tied with the Kane Chronicles I almost forgot whoops
AUGUST AND JACK JUST NEED TO BE PROTECTED OKAY. I volunteer as tribute to bring them cookies every week. They’re both such wonderfully developed characters who would do anything for each other. Actual kings.
Adrian also shares the spotlight with Nova but he also holds my heart because HE’S SO PURE AND ADORABLE AND SWEET AND SLIGHTLY FRUSTRATING. I’m grinning like an idiot just thinking about him so if that doesn’t tell you how much I love him, I don’t know what will.
How could I forget Kaz Brekker, my favorite morally ambiguous Slytherin??? He’s special I love him to death and have ranted about him enough in the past few posts asdfghjkl.
So that’s it! Who are your favorite main male character???
The only one of these that I’ve read is Six of Crows and it was so long ago that I hardly remember anything. I really need to reread it soon!

I love Kaz! I have the same problem, I also tend to focus on books with women protagonists so a list like this could be challenging lol.

Kaz is one of my faves! And Percy’s inner monologue is hilarious; he’s sometimes so air-headed and laid-back about everything, that alone makes me laugh. 😉
