Hi all!
My name is Chiara and I am a Bookworm.
I had such a mental block trying to write this list. Last week the books were flowing that this week … they are no where to be found. I’ve managed to scrape together five book/character that definitely could have done with more love, though there’s even one that I think finally gets the love when he gets his own book, but I wanted to include him anyway because I’ve been rooting for him to have his own book for sooooo long.
Just as a reminder, Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and the Bookish in June of 2010 and was moved to That Artsy Reader Girl in January of 2018. It was born of a love of lists, a love of books, and a desire to bring bookish friends together.

Great list! Poor Mary, she’s definitely a character who deserves more empathy.

I definitely struggled this week as well but you came up with a great list! Nehemia is a character I’ve seen mentioned a few times this week and I totally agree, I’d love more about her. I also agree with The Russian and I am SO excited to read his book so sooon 😍

The Russian’s story is so good. I can’t remember if the review for it goes up this week or next, but I hope you check it out.

I love her too, but did she need to be killed off so early???

I’m not an Austen expert by any means but ooh I can think of some supporting characters who’d be interesting just going from the mov9e adaptations lol. And I keep seeing Vlad’s name pop up in reviews of that book so he must be fun!

Commander Root is such a great character! I would love to know more about Foaly and Butler.
I twisted the topic some, as I have trouble remembering secondary characters.

I had trouble with the topic as well, so I switched it up this week.
