This heroine actually doesn’t have any of the redeeming
qualities of what a hero would have. Instead Georgia Nicolson of the
series Confessions of Georgia Nicolson by Louis Rennison is pretty much your
average British teenage girl. I mean the entire series is an autobiography of
her life. It’s pretty much her journal that is full of fun things she does with
her friends and boy troubles. Although she is an average teen girl she is very
crazy and the way she talks is utterly ridiculous and I love it. She uses the
words "boy entrancers" false eyelashes, "Froggie" short for
French and “How’s your father" which means a boy's penis and I'm not sure
how that is translated that way. But what I like most about her is the way she
talks and melodramatic personality. Because

Almost there but anyway my number two is Mary
"Jacky" Faber of the Bloody Jack series by L.A Meyer. I really
liked this character because she is such a tomboy even though the series is set
in the 1800’s and she supposed to be a dignified lady. In the first book of the
series the character, Jackie dresses as a boy when she was twelve and pretended
to be a ship’s boy. While she is a ships boy she killed a man and was covered
with his blood which make her such a fierce and strong character. But she can
be at times a regular girl whenever she’s thinking about her darling Jamie and
their promise of marriage when they were younger. She is a good blend of
toughness and feminity and a bit of a reckless maniac but that is also part of
her charm.

Here it is my
number one most favorite character. Artemis
Fowl of the Artemis Fowl series by Eoin Colfer. Artemis was a young evil
and rich genius. He is also what you would you call and antihero but later in
the series his morals change a bit so he became more of hero than villain. But
when he was twelve years old he kidnapped a Fairy named Holly and demanded a
large gold sum as ransom. He has one of the largest I.Q in Europe and has read
more psychology books than many other psychiatrist. Which would irrigate any psychiatrists
he has ever had. Also his only friend is his butler/bodyguard so his antisocial
mostly (but he makes friends with Holly and other fae folks later in the
series). But whether or not he is a changed men or an evil genius I love this character
a lot. He is so much more amusing than your average goody-two shoes hero and would
doesn’t love a hero who isn’t just black and white. It makes the story a lot
more entertaining.
