Bad: Bucktoothed and frizzy-haired (in the books, anyway), stubborn, bossy, sometimes humorless.

I am Hermione Granger. I guess I need to go get a perm now.
Mr. Darcy from Pride and Prejudice.
I’m … actually not sure how I feel about that. 
I got Mikael Blomkvist as well. (The female equivalent is Alice from Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland.)
Probably better referred to as a young adult book than a Children’s book. It’s author is Neil Gaiman, who if you know nothing about now is as good of a time as any to start. (Neil Gaiman - Wikipedia)
His first novel Good Omens was a collaboration with Terry Pratchett of Discworld fame, and is a hilarious riff on the end-of-the-world/Armageddon trope. (The Four Horseman of the Apocalypse ride on Harleys.)
I also can’t recommend American Gods highly enough.
Coraline has a similar dark tone to American Gods, but with less mature themes since it’s primary audience is younger. But like Roald Dahl, Gaiman doesn’t shy away from the dark side of human nature when writing for youth.
Or you could go with “adept”.
I’m Charlie Bucket from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. And just before taking the test I ate a piece of chocolate! Oh, the irony!
Put me in the Hercule Poirot category. I have the mustache already, though it’s not long enough for me to wax.
Hercule Poirot
Just did it again, answering every question the same but saying female instead of male, and apparently I’m… Batgirl?
*Your competitive nature and fast-paced, decisive approach makes you the perfect super-heroine. The original Batgirl, Barbara Gordon, became a feminist icon and you are a natural leader, with your ability to see the bigger picture and strategise.
Friends and colleagues may find you over-bearing and aggressive on your bad days… You’re programmed to excel and succeed and may ignore the emotional impact of your decisions. However, you’re Batgirl – enough said.*
Mr. Darcy. Not really how I see myself character-wise, but the description sounds creepily accurate for me:
Surprisingly, I am neither Rufus T. Firefly or Huckleberry Finn, but James Bond from Casino Royale.
Cool. Completely off the mark, but cool nonetheless. Jimmy Bond from the camp 60s film version? Sure. But, David Niven or Daniel Craig? Not even on my best days.
“I’ve got him in my sights, Mrs. Moneypenny…”
Skewered. One sympathizes.
Likewise, here.
-MMM-
ME TOO!
The first half dozen of the series are great, especially the first one. The recent ones, not so much.
Ok, I definitely need to read this. Winter break is coming up… hmmmmm
Yet one more Atticus Finch checking in. (And no, I don’t buy it either.) Have we hit double digits yet?
If you think this board is bad off now, just wait 'til we get through with it! ![]()
same here.
I am Spartacus!
Me as well.
You are Dean Moriarty from On the Road
With an ability to motivate friends and strangers to join you on crazy adventures, you share Dean’s best, inspirational side. Stopping short of Sal’s Dionysus comparisons, your outgoing, enthusiastic and passionate nature give you an ability to inspire others.
Your gift of the gab can land you in trouble if not properly harnessed, and on bad days your wonderful outgoing nature can lead to indiscretion and flamboyance. However, people who meet you feel like you bring out their best side. Just make sure you finish what you start and take some time out to process your crazy adventures.
Well, I’m pleased to be Scout, I was aiming for Elizabeth Bennett.
