Class of 2014: YA Superlative Blogfest - Day 2

Is it really that time of the year? No, not the time filled with red and green and presents and the perfume of pine. I mean the time filled with fireworks and a late night party around the world and a marathon of The Walking Dead that I will totally be watching, even though I own all four seasons on DVD. IT IS THE END OF THE FREAKING YEAR. Most importantly, it's the time of year to rank all the books we spent most of the year reading.

Like last year, I'll be participating in The Class of 2014: YA Superlative Blogfest hosted by Katy Upperman, Jessica Love, Tracey Neithercott, and Alison Miller. It's a four-day fest full of the best YA books and their components with Head of the Class, Popularity Contest, Elements of Fiction, and Best in Show. Get your books, put your thinking cap on, and join the fun!

(Note: All the books are Young Adult--unless otherwise stated--published in 2014, repeats will be avoided as much as possible, and what I've read in 2014 as of the date the post was published.)

Villain I Love to Hate

I don't love the Bastard King of Adarlan. I hate the Bastard King of Adarlan with a fiery passion. He's a filthy, evil bastard. [Goodreads | Review]

Most Likely to Become a Rock Star

Granted, he already was a rock star, but whatever. He's going to be one again and you can bet on that. Because HE'S COLE ST. CLAIR, DAMMIT. [Goodreads | Review]

Favorite Parental Figure

They're not really parents, but they're three older protective brothers who are excellent so they totally count. [Goodreads | Review]

Most Likely to Start a Riot

Okay, really, just about EVERYONE in this series is extremely likely to start a riot. But Celaena Sardothien's the kind of person who kills first and takes names never. Very riotous. [Goodreads | Review]

Biggest Flirt

He's not exactly flirty. Okay, okay, he totally is. But in a good way, because he's The Matt Finch. [Goodreads | Review]

Coolest Nerd

Sloane is also very quirky and somewhat likely to be president, but really, she's just a super cool nerd and akin to Dr. Spencer Reid in Criminal Minds. [Goodreads | Review]

Fashion King

Warner is very dapper and dashing and stylish. [Goodreads | Review]

Fashion Queen

SHE GETS TO WEAR PRETTY DRESSES ALL DAY EVERY DAY. [Goodreads | Review]

Character I'd Most Want For a BFF

HE'S A CHIMPANZEE, WE'D BE BESTIES. [Goodreads | Review]

Character I Wish I'd Dated in High School

CHAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL. Please have things go your way (and my way) in the next book. And don't ever die. [Goodreads | Review]

Most Likely to Become President

He's already royalty (like, the top of the crown), but seriously, he'd make a great president. [Goodreads | Review]

Quirkiest Character

His name is Finnegan that's all you need to know. Well, people call him Finn. But he's Finn Finnegan (and his middle name is Trouble). [Goodreads | Review]

Which characters do you think were the most popular this year? Also, be sure to return for more superlatives tomorrow! I'll be sharing the year's best Elements of Fiction!
