Jane Eyre ~ I want to be Jane when I grow up.
Violet Hayes ~ smart, clever, and very determined
Alice Grace Ripley ~ This girl puts up with a lot, and finally gets the adventure she has always wanted.
Susan Mitchell ~ No ordinary soccer mom
Julie Desmit ~ I have never rooted for anyone harder.
Camilla Deardon ~ My heart broke for her.
Jennifer Graham ~ This woman got her act together and became a funeral home director.
Anne Elliot ~ We need more people like Anne in this world.
Those are some of the women in books who have stuck with me. Check out more top ten lists at The Broke and the Bookish.
Anne and Jane are lovely choices. I think I've a couple of Lynn Austin's books, but not those. Nice list!
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by.
DeleteGreat list! I loved Camilla Deardon too! Still need to read book 2 in the series.
ReplyDeleteBook 2 is good, too. Happy reading.
DeleteJane Eyre is my favorite from on your list. She was so sweet and good and wanted to make sure she did what was right, even when she was treated so wrongly. Plus her wit, who could resist that?
ReplyDeleteJane is awesome!
