Book Blogger Hop December 17th - 20th
Posted by

I haven't done one of these in awhile so I thought what the heck. Jenn over at Crazy-for-Books does a Book Blogger Hop every week. The purpose of the Hop is as follows:
In the spirit of the Twitter Friday Follow, the Book Blogger Hop is a place just for book bloggers and readers to connect and share our love of the written word! This weekly BOOK PARTY is an awesome opportunity for book bloggers to connect with other book lovers, make new friends, support each other, and generally just share our love of books! It will also give blog readers a chance to find other book blogs to read!
This week Jenn asked . . .
"What do you consider the most important in a story: the plot or the characters?"
I actually did a whole post on that subject awhile back. You can refer to that here!
I'd also invite everyone who's taken the opportunity to stop on by. Look around and enjoy yourself and don't forget to leave a note in the comments!
I hope everyone has a great weekend~

This might be the best Book Blogger Hop question I've seen to date.
So what's the answer? Plot! Hop over to my blog and let me tell you how a good plot rescued bad characters from bad book oblivion.

HI I'm a new follower and it really depends on the author as someone puts it I like both but tend to lean towards characters .

Thanks to everyone for stopping by!
Just read your post from May...and man, I couldn't have said it better. Characters are the ones with which one can form some strong and lasting attachments. They're great "hooks" into a book or series. There are quite a few series that I follow specifically because I love the characters, and know that regardless of what antics will ensue around them, I will absolutely enjoy their company.
Characters are especially important in romances, I'd think. I mean...that's what the whole book should be about...two (or more ^_^) people's finding their way to each other. Add whatever obstacles and external hindrances...its the people that really make the connection and eventual HEA believable.
Okay. Rant over. Point it, I totally agreed with your post. You are not alone in your belief! ^_^
Cheers,
Alisha
