Severus Snape. Gosh, where do I start? The greasy mop of hair? The large hook-like nose? Now some of you may object to this choice, or even to Harry Potter being counted as ‘literary’ but quiet, you. I heart Severus. Especially because we got to find out I was right about him all along. He WAS good. And he loved Lily. It was so sweet and tear-jerking. Also, he died. Nobly. He didn’t WANT to kill Dumbledore, he HAD to. To save Draco. One of those bad on the outside, good on the inside types. It’s a massive turn on. Also, Alan Rickman is sexeh! Best. Voice. Ever. Every time I read a book, I want to turn to page three hundred and ninety-four.
I also delightedly received the Prolific Blogger Award from Mae at Mad Bibliophile. Yay! (and thank you Mae) It’s a very special award, and even as a whole page dedicated to explaining it. The seven bloggers I’ve chose to award are:
Turning The Leaves (a new blog, but already filled with interesting reviews and literary insights)
Wordsmithonia (Ryan has given me awards before, but they got lost in my messy blogosphere -Sorry dude! – His blog rocks)
Savidge Reads (who have also started a new PenPals project that I think is quite rad)
Avocado and Lemon – a relatively recently discovered blog, but excellently written, and with some great discussion points on writing and literary events etc.
Snape… seriously… noooooooo!!!!!
lol, sorry – just don’t see it!! :p
Congratulations on the Prolific Blogger award :)
Cookie: Thanks! Congratulations yourself :) There’s a miniscule amount of Snape-lovers out there besides me, but I swear they exist
Elena..
It pains me to admit this but I do see where you are coming from. He’s just so..so..tortured!!
Something about tortured heroes just gets me going.

Jackie: A-ha! There are others out there who understand his allure. Indeed, the tortured hero is damaged and all the more loveable for it.
You crazy lady. I have to admit I’m not quite getting the Alan Rickman fetish, but I was as pleased as punch about being right about old Snape as well….
I seriously don’t know what to say about Snape. Now maybe Sirius or Remus I could have understood, but not Snape.
Thanks for the award, and don’t worry about. I think I’ve space on some awards given to me and haven’t got them posted yet.
hehe Snape. ;)
I went for Little Women’s Friedrich Bhaer this week.

I go for Harry, myself. Or, I would if that weren’t like, you know, illegal.
Oooh thanks very much! And now that I’m taking my laptop with me to working, there should be even more blogging going on!
I’m in two minds about your Snape lusting. On one hand, Alan Rickman is yummy with a beautiful accent, but Snape always got under my skin. Even in the end I wasn’t sure I could trust him. But his Patronus was a doe, and that was so sweet. Sigh.
I can’t wait for this Sunday’s LL – remembered an old LL of mine that deserves a mention :)
Kayleigh: You’re welcome. Haha, you’re in TWO minds about Snape? But..the doe…he loved Lily the ENTIRE time… lol but yes fair enough, I can’t help but be controversial, even when it comes to the lustiness of literary men :P
It amazes me that more people don’t find Snape sexy!! He is the main/sole reason I watch Harry Potter. And I even read some of the books just to read what he is like in the books.
J.T.: Ha! How illegal could it be? They’re fictional characters :P I was never a big fan of Harry, always preferred the ranga myself :P
Jade: You read the books JUST to see what Snape was like? That tickles me pink
Lol, I have noticed that about you, Elena :p
