tier ranking your book boyfriends (we all need help)
Real big character growth that the Darkling didn't make it anywhere near this list.
He’s still number one in my heart lol but I also feel a passionate hatred towards a bunch of your soulmates 😆
so true😫
I thought about it when mentally categorising my Grishaverse boyfriends. I can only say Nikolai is #1, everyone else goes after and Mal isn't in the mix 🤣
This was my first though!! 😂😂
that’s because he’s mine and belongs to me and not the rest of the girlies, because only I can change him and only I can fix him even if he makes me a single mother 🙏🏽
As someone who read Shatter Me when I was 18-ish I think the main reason Warner is so beloved is that he's the first instance of an MC who would burn the world down for their love interest and I appreciate that in a book boyfriend
Plus he's not possessive and actually believes in her strength and that she doesn't need protection.
as someone who loves Warner less than the average booktok reader, I think its cause I read shatter me a solid 6 years after I fell in love with a different "ill burn the world down for you" but its not toxic (aka percy jackson) . its definitely that feature that people love
@@laramcguire7520 Who would Percy burn the world down for? (Just began the series)
@@naoedouard4422 For Annabeth

Love how the exorcism tier is still empty although we secretly all know that half of these characters could seriously use one 😂
true!
Jace literally did need and receive an exorcism though. Twice.
Am I the only one who has no idea what a fixer upper is? Ok... thought so!
And what book is neena from?
@@seductiveraven4895Nina is from Six of Crows!!
Nina Zenik deserves a category all of her own that transcends soulmate material. She is BEYOND soulmate material
Nina is CULT material, like you wanna make a cult for Nina.
Yes. Just yes
she’s everything. i adore her so much
She does......I just want to have her strength and charm and everything. She is a goddess.
Am I the only one who has no idea what a fixer upper is? Ok... thought so!
one of the quotes from the Shadow and Bone cast reading fan thirst tweets and they said "I'd die for Kaz Brekker and he'd let me" and that. is... it.
Anne with an E not getting a season 4 will be villain origin story and everyone in my nursing home in 60 years will hear about it non-stop.
I pity your future nursing home mates 😂
😭😭😭
same man I bitch about it monthly to my fiancé he’s probably so sick of hearing about it lmao
@@Book_Dragon2562 I love the books, but still love the Anne with an E show.
Definitely read the books! It’s worth it even if it doesn’t have all the storylines that are in the show! The slow burn between Anne and Gilbert and the family they make is amazing to read about!
16:48
1: he fell inlove with her EVERY SINGLE TIME
2: told his soldiers not to shoot her even though she could've killed him
3: he had guns pointed at him but he just stood there smiling at her
4: he could've left omega point anytime he wanted but he chose to stay there just because he got to see her everyday
5: adam liked her when she was shy and scared but aaron wanted her to stand up for herself and learn to use her powers
6: he never asked his father for anything but he BEGGED his father to spare her life
7: he fought so many soldiers to make sure they don't reach her
8: everyone told him she might not make it but he never lost hope
9: THE SCENE WITH THE PUPPY??!?!?!?
10: never intended to use her as a weapon he wanted to study her because his mother had a similar "power"
11: kenji told him that she's not herself and that she might kill him but he didn't care
12: his fashion sense
13: told juliette that Adam has character traits of a little bitch
14: told adam he had as much charisma as a unidentified roadkill
15: eats cookies with a fork
16: "You're going to go on to do incredible things,” he says. “I’ve always known that. I think I just wanted to be a part of it.”
17: he never got gifts growing up except for a ring that his mom gave him and hes always wearing it
18: he let her friends stay at base even though he found most of them unbearable
19: he memorized her journal
20: when he read about people who hurt her he wanted to find them and rip them apart
i could go on and on but i think i should stop😭
this makes me so happy, good job, i love the comment, him and you for doing this
Aaron Warne supremacy right there ❤ he will forever be my favourite book boyfriend
My mannn 😭❤️
That's dedication 🙌🏼
12 and 14 should be in bold
Jem’s kind, writes ballads, plays the violin, and speaks multiple languages. He’s almost too perfect. 😭
right. He's practically unreal, fictional almost
He is literally the embodiment of ‘man written by women’ I love him sm
Jem Carstairs is THE book boyfriend of all book boyfriends, no one can top him
@@SuhaR0310 i can top him🧌
@@SuhaR0310 You’re so right. He’s just on a whole other level.
Love Cari just casually saying "yeah, I'd be in a throuple with Kaz and Inej" adsafsadsa
and you wouldnt?!!!!
@@caricanread ...it would be a lie to say no ajejdkwkd, even if just to annoy kaz by hitting his cane with mine repeatedly
Honestly i would JUMP att the opportunity 😛
The fact that Will and Jem came out on top even though their series is over a decade old - exceptional work ladies.
I LOVE THIS,WE NEED A GF VERSION
i asked for girlies and nina is the only one who made the list :'(
absolutely unfair we need to ask louder. what about gideon nav cmon
add cordelia carstairs to that list too!
Omg Gideon Nav. Always and forever. 💀
I'd vote for this. I just need to know where to vote. I think maybe it's confusing bc ppl don't think about main characters as love interest and most of the MCs are women. Also, fuck, marry, kill would be fun to vote on.
Cari: Puts Gilbert at the highest tier.
me: *looking at her ginger hair* carrots.
lmao
AH THE REFERENCE
Haha 😂 but seriously, blonde girl here had her first book crush on Gilbert Blythe and realized later my dream guy had many of his qualities & characteristics… Right down to the dark hair. I even imagined having babies with black/dark brown hair and blue eyes. After many miscarriages and battling infertility, our miracle baby has a lot of my husband’s looks and personality BUT although he did get the blue eyes (mine), he surprised EVERYONE by also getting my blonde hair! My first loss, like Anne, was a daughter and we have always pictured her having the long dark curls and her daddy’s eyes (it’s like looking into a galaxy). My husband could totally be described as boyfriend/soulmate book material! Kind, caring, loyal, sensitive, but with that bad boy edge and the full knowledge that he can and will destroy anyone who hurts me. I’ve always called him my “Dark Knight”. 😉 🖤
Gilbert was my first crush when I was reading the books when I was nine 😂
Omg😂💗
If I came across a Jem in real life, I would marry him right away no questions asked. Patiently waiting for my Jem to come along.
Bro he's my soulmate too😭😭❤❤❤❤❤❤
So we all just have the same soulmate, huh 😭
me too, jem is 1000% soulmate material, i'd drop everything 😭 i wish i had friends who were as into these books as me bec i'm always simping over jem and nobody knows what i'm talking about💀
Will Herondale over everyone always. was obsessed with him at 14, still obsessed with him at 23
literally me 🫶🏼
Same girl same
THIS IS ME
Book name Pls?
Same!!!
Pov:When Jacks and Carden are your favourite boyfriend and you know both of them need extreme exorcism
It's true
Might be time to look inward 😂
What books do they belong to?
@@fairjuniper8658 Jacks from “Once upon a broken heart” and carden from “The cruel prince “
Same 😭
While I was reading The Cruel Prince I was like “no I’m not gonna like Cardan I’m gonna remember what he’s done and I won’t forgive him that easily!” And the moment I started the second book I immediately realized I missed him.
I have no excuse for Jacks.
justice for Peeta lol he’s a soulmate for me. I don’t think he’s very passive by nature, but just made insecure by circumstances. everywhere else besides Katniss, he takes initiative in a really crafty, kind of scary way. boy is too clever. and he’s the one who always initiates the feelings talk whenever he would get even a hint of encouragement, he was dealing with a tough emotionally stunted girl, after all. I just really appreciate a male character who, even though he *is* physically strong, doesn’t choose that route, but goes instead with his brains and heart. he’s the emotional center of the series, and owns me forever ✋🏻
period
Yeah Peeta never seemed passive to me, he usually knows exactly what he’s doing, he just tackles problems with clever wording instead of aggressive behavior. One of the greatest things he did for me was apologizing to Katniss for holding her to stuff they did in the games and asking to just be friends rather than expecting more. THAT is what I want to see more of, not the chasing/pressuring we so often see especially in the context of the Hunger Games where half the characters are traumatized. I don’t think Peeta would come across as so passive if his love interest were emotionally available, it IS a two way street after all.
@@petloverspy I think this is only because he accepts all of Katniss’ boundaries (?) and so he seems like he’s just not assertive enough to make her accept him immediately. and I’m not saying that’s even something people think explicitly, it may just be in the back of their brains because of how our culture works
@@moonchild977 That makes sense yeah. We’re very used to seeing people ignoring boundaries or persistently challenging them as a romantic/cute thing - which as someone with important boundaries I need to function (autism) I’ve really not been a fan of. Peeta would be a great guy IRL as well as in the story, unlike a lot of other love interests who are only really fun in the fantasy
yes, yes! loving this thread😊
I was holding my breath when you were deciding where to rank Mr. Darcy 😭💀✋. I didn’t know how I would feel if you put him in “i could make it work” instead of “soulmate” 😂
hahahahhahha
Saaaaaaaaaaame!! 😂 😭
Same. Darcy is bae. Been crushing on that fictional man since I was thirteen.
Sameeee I was like "c'mon Cari, it's Mr Darcy!!!!" like, where else could anyone rank him? 😂
Haha was looking for a comment like this! Darcy forever!!! ❤❤❤
I knew EXACTLY what kind of silence that was after saying “pros:” for Kaz 😂 It’s everything, truly
I interpreted it more as "Pros: none" because there aren't really reasons to want to be together with Kaz, just reasons to be attracted to him imho ^^' (he's still in my top tier, though, love him to bits)
pros : he would buy a boat and poke someone else's eyeballs for his loved one
@@ref208and pay off a monarch to go find their lost parents and bring them back
I remember absolutely screaming out of love for Jem and Will in 2014 and its crazy to see they're still stealing hearts and made it to the top of the tier
Yes oh I loved this series so much as a teenager😍it actually touched me more than The mortal Instruments...and the bond that Will and Jem have is just increcible...overall the series shows so well that love has so many different facettes👌
I'd say a large amount of Aaron Warner's appeal is what you said, most of us were younger when we first read Shatter Me. Warner was most of our first introduction to "bad boys". (This might seem bare minimum now, but this is 2010s romance books we're talking here) Aaron never put Juliette down, recognised her emotions and fears sometimes even before she did, he always seen her as his equal but wanted her to be more, he was smart and above almost everyone in intelligence, he was actually funny and quick witted, he was hot (obviously) he's actually one of the only blonds most of us fangirls simped for at the time, him having a weak spot for fashion, him being a romantic and calling Juliette "love", he likes to read, DIMPLES, he's had a tragic childhood (like every bad boy though lol), he's always one step ahead in some way, and would do anything, anythingg for the girl he loves. Especially in the final 3 books. Even for his friends although he doesn't act like he cares about them (and to be fair, sometimes he doesn't. But when Nazeera's brother was depressed, Aaron was there for him and never held him helping Nazeera's brother against either of them when he could have)
He might seem like every other bad boy character, but I think nostalgia and the long forgotten 2010s dystopian vibes add to why so many of us love him. I think ppl that dislike him are probably just older and have read many books with bad boys so they're tired of the trope(love him but understandable honestly). Most people that dislike him only read the first book (where we are supposed to dislike him because it's in Juliette's pov and at that time, she hates Warner).
Anyway that's why I think so may of us simp for Aaron Warner. Just the fact alone that he'd truly do anything for his girl and she's actually his entire world/ the first person to ever love him. Also him already having a large fanbase helps new fans to love him more.
EDIT: Warner also perfectly speaks many languages. It's just so hot. Warnette fans, am I forgetting anything?
Preach 🙌🏼
He's just so alluring i can't help it lol
I never loved the series but I still have a soft spot for hin
i like how you go DIMPLES in all caps cause how real of you. Aaron literally is the only blonde boy, apart from nikolai, who i would simp for
Absolutely! Well said! I fell hard for him lol 😆 ❤
"pity romance" should be the name of a category in your next ranking video...about fictional relationships.
Top = match-made in the cosmos
Next = a life saved, a love won
Middle = pity romance
Next = y'all in denial
Bottom = must be business arrangement
YES please!!!
Jem and Will being at the top... it just feels right. They are just two CLASSIC book boyfriends, I can't explain it. I dont know if someone will ever dethrone them. Like I have love many book boyfriends after them but they will always be at the top of my list. And I think it similar for a lot of people.
For a half second before you said Will Herondale came in first place I thought “how unhinged would it be if she said Tamlin” 😅
Iconic
yeah, because she said if they were in the same room idk what would happen. I also though tamlin
Hahahahahaha
SAME
I've read all the Shaodwhunter Chronicles books, and though I love all these boys, here's my raking with little explanation:
5. Jace (sexy, needs a touch more individuality--yes, really)
4. James (love the romantic vibes, a bit too safe)
3. Julian (surprises me every time how intriguing he is, needs more fandom love)
2. Jem (is a literal gem, the best kind of sweet and loyal)
1. Will (sorry not sorry, is a gorgeously crafted character with the biggest heart in the entire Shadowhunters saga)
Bonus: Kit (don't know if I would date him, but he's my all-time fave)
I think the problem with Kit is that he's a little too gay...
Like yeah he had a girlfriend in Secrets of Blackthorn Hall, but we all know he will ends up with Ty (as it should). That's why it's hard to think about him like that!
Completley agree.
I would switch 5 and 3 personally, but you are absolutely correct. I have been a Will fangirl for well over a decade and I will never go back 😤😤

I'm sorry but Aaron Warner deserves all the love he gets😭 I just can't explain why but he does 😂
"Will is the kind of person I would have a crush on but Jem is the person I would end up dating" freaking ended me lol. Ended up with my Jem and I can't complain.
You cracked me up🤣🤣🤣 "Azriel working his ass off, making sure the plot moves forward" hahahhahhhhh
seeing the love for jem and will in the comments is making me so happy 😭 jem especially bec he's not a typical YA love interest, he's literally just kind and gentle best friends to lovers material. i love it here!!!!

Will & Jem are both #1 (it would be a throuple, we would make it work🙊 I need them both). Jace #2 actually has my teenage infatuation to this day and I'm very loyal to that. #3 James has my love and my heart, but he's not his Daddy. #4 Julian is actually the only one I could say only good things about, so that's boring and that's a me problem - I'm aware, I need drama & therapy 🙈
BUT HE'S NOT HIS DADDY HAHAHAHHAHA
I WHOLEHEARTEDLY AGREE AND IM NOT EVEN SORRY
Can’t agree more with “He’s not his daddy.” Too real.
Will & Jem #1
James #2
Julian #3
Jace #4
I adore all the boys but honestly Will and Jem are just on a complete other level than the others. They ruin all other Shadowhunter men (and outshine the protagonists - which is saying a lot cause I do love Tessa and Cordelia).
Justice for Julian. You know he loves deeply and he is fully committed. He takes responsibility seriously.
Love Julian! Besides Will Herondale, he’s my favorite!
He's my favorite of the Shadowhunter boys. So underrated.
he loves a bit too deeply that's why i dont like him at all hes creepy
@@adesiredsoundtrack3597 could you explain why he is creepy?
Julian after Jem for sureeee, he is so underrated. He is like the only shadowhunter boys who THINKS.
I’m sorry, but loving cassian is self-love. We all deserve someone that loyal and kind and patient. No one of us deserves trickery and foolishness and games. We deserve Cassians! 😂❤
Yes! ❤ all of this! Yes!😂
I didn't realize you were using Geralt for a placeholder image and I was about to be very offended he was friend zoned 😂 Geralt would be an amazing book boyfriend I just know it
I'm a fan of supportive himbos but I would sooo friendzone Geralt. He's a good guy and handsome for sure but too boring for me
i looooove geralt and would defend him to the death but esp after reading the books he deffff needs therapy my man is going through it
@@EleiyaUmei geralt is not a himbo lmao..
@@anri2728 Eh, I don't know. In Witcher 3 he was pretty much a himbo (himbos don't need to have no intelligence at all imo) and in the 1st book of the 5-book-series, he didn't seem much different from the game.
@@EleiyaUmei The definition of Himbo is “an attractive but unintelligent man” and it’s basically the masculine form of bimbo… so yes, they do need to lack intelligence to be a himbo.
But to further my point. I wouldn’t say Geralt is a himbo just based on his personality alone lol he is kind sometimes.
i understand that the bat boys have wider (sex) appeal, but lucien not being on this list makes me sad. even thirdwheeling the voting system. damn. (also, this was great. your description of the ali hazelwood men as 'GIANT men who look like adam driver' made me laugh out loud.)
The way I cackled--
Justice for Lucien
Lucien was always my favorite…
I'll never understand their appeal besides being dark-haired and good-looking. One talks about feminism but will do the exact opposite, one follows everything his master orders like a dog, and the other one has only 2 sentences in an entire book. Lucien's more fun and maybe I can get behind Cassian, but Rhys and Azriel??
LUCIEN IS MY FAVORITE TOO!! he’s the only guy in this series who isn’t sex-obsessed and “softer” in a way. That’s why he has much more appeal to me😭
@@joyjjjoy My god, yes. I‘m so grossed out by the bat boys for how many times they sexualize the girls in the series and think they have the biggest muscles and dicks (remember when Nesta was unhealthy thin and sick and Cass talked about her big boobs?). Not to mention when they joke about f*cking their mates. Lucien‘s the only one normal and an actual gentleman. At least he worried about Elain‘s health instead of sexualizing her when we read his thoughts.
Aaron warner and Mr Darcy will forever hold a special place in my heart 🫶🏻
❤❤❤
Will Jem and Tessa’s love triangle is literally the best love triangle I’ve ever read. Like. I ADORE them.
But I definitely love Jem more 😂
Honestly, it's the only love triangle I didn't hate.
I actually found it the worst. Like maybe if Tessa wasn't so unlikable it could've worked for me, but nope.
ME TOO
Yes to this!
Nahh, Christina, Mark and Kieran's live triangle was definitely the best and for me personally the only one that was not annoying me.
as a non-booktok girlie who doesn't know a single soul irl who read the infernal devices series, I was waiting so patiently to see if Will Herondale would make it to this list. so happy to see others feel the same
I'll stand by Cassian. He deserves everything. I love him so much 🤧 💗
Will and Jem deserved those votes. I love them so much.
26:00 I’m absolutely in love with Kaz. I love his brain! 😂 He’s just so smart.
Genuinely your energy and vibe is just so light and watching this was just such a bright start to the day! Also i screamed when I saw Henry Cavill's Geralt as the fanart for Rowan 😂😂😂
For a sec i thought that Geralt of Rivia made it to the list and was a bit confused🤪
Matthias Helvar from six of crows and Jamie Fraser fall in the same category of not being completely up to date on feminism, but willing to put in the work and trying to understand❤️
No matter who #1 ends up being...Jacks will forever be my #1 🍎🤧
🥹🥹🥹
I would kick him out of my life for being so fucking deceptive and manipulative, but I can't deny that he is extremely alluring and that when I read the series for the first time a few days ago he stole my heart.
As a six of crows fan I love both Matthias and Kaz even though those 2 couldn't be more opposites😂😂
To be fair, every single ACOTAR character needs therapy 🤣🤣 I’d put Rhysand in could make it work/soul mate depending on the book (I’m gonna say needs therapy for acosf though lmaoo)…and yeah I probably need therapy too 😂😭 but yes Jamie from outlander is definitely soul mate material ❤
As for the Warner question, we will be taking no questions at this time. Theres a reason he's one of the only blonde boys we love. We are down bad and i swear there is merit to it but its also inexplicable 😂💁🏻♀️
NO STOP CARI I LOVE THE BACKGROUND MUSIC YOU PUT WHENEVER RHYSAND IS MENTIONED.😂😂
Nikolai is definitely soulmate material 😍❤️
First of all, LOVE Mr. Darcy at the top-tier!! 😍 And yesss Nathaniel is such a good character I love him!! Personally, I adore Cardan (he's one of my fav male book characters), but I understand why you'd rank him the way you did haha, he's definitely not for everyone! 🤣 AND YESS JACKS I LOVEEE HIM!!! 😭💗 On my KNEES for the third book in that series kskss 😂❤️
yes cardan is aaaaallllll yours ahahhah
just proving to myself that 16 year old me had immaculate taste because Will is and will always be THE number one book bf😌
Jaimie Fraser, you’re soulmate material to me
🥹🥹🥹
Jamie Fraser being soulmate material is so real of you
The TEA that I know I will get from this video, can’t wait to watch it 🤣
bahahhaaaa
i genuinely want to understand the magic, curse, deal with the devil, or CRACK that was used to literally embody will herondale's character with the ability to put so many readers into a chokehold for YEARS like he has been the only book character i ever felt like i could've been genuinely in love with and i barely remember the series
Will is still my favorite. My husband reminds me so much of him. Jem is great and all, but I love a good laugh. Julian is my second favorite for sure.
I'll never apologize for loving Cassian.
Same.
Oh god ranking all the shadowhunter boys is soooo hard, but let's try anyway
5. Jace Herondale : I love him but the boy was ready to risk it all for incest....and I don't know how I feel about that. Also, I don't know why but I absolutely loved him when I first read the series, but now after being introduced to all the other guys, he is definitely at the lowest.
4. Julian Blackthorn : I love him quite a bit coz he's so sharp, knows how to take care of his family, loves them so much, is an artist and is incredibly cute BUT he is also kinda manipulative and that side of him always puts me off, just a little bit though.
3. James Herondale : He is literally the cutest boy in the entire shadowhunter world, like he's literally a fluffball. He has some serious communication issues, but I mostly blame that on the Gracelet (iykyk), also he literally learnt Farsi for Cordelia and ik that if someone did that for me I'd completely melt
2. Jem : Do I even need to justify this??? He is just perfect. He plays the violin, battled his addiction for the ones he love, constantly tells Tessa how pretty she is in Chinese and was fine with his best friend and fiance getting together solely because of how much he loved both of them. The only reason he's not first is coz I need someone who can talk with me constantly and I know that he is just not like that
1. Will Herondale : Literally one of the best characters I've ever read!!!! We all already know why he is amazing so I'll just justify putting him on top. First of all he loves books, that alone shot him to the top, also he can literally talk for hours and that is exactly the kind of person I'd want, I take life wayyyyyy too seriously so he is the perfect balance for me and personally, the singing and ducks are pros for me 😁😁
bro this list is perfect!!!!! i love it
@@lou-xr5rz thanks😁😁
I'm watching Outlander with my husband right now, took only a handful of episodes for him to sing the opening every single time. I think Jamie is also my husband's soulmate 😂
"Nina Zenik, yeah, soulmate materiel" so true Cari.
honestly I reread the shatter me series last year and had to dnf them bc it just wasn’t the same as back in middle school but warner… he’s my forever bf. It’s the “girl can barely stand him and he’d cut off his own leg for her” trope that gets me
SO happy to see nina in the soulmates category✨
I got so pissed about the batboys and how none of them were soulmate material lol
I literally just finished my essay after hours of work right as you posted this! I’m convinced this is gift sent for me 😭
❤❤❤❤❤
I just finished my essay too, I hope you get a good grade! 🎉
Interesting! I feel like there's often a big disconnect between what we "know" is a red flag in real life and what we're willing to overlook in fictional characters, lol.
I love how you didn’t even hesitate before sending Jamie straight to the top haha
I am a simple girl. I see ACOTAR in the thumbnail, I click 🌌🖤
I love Aaron Warner because of how he always puts Juliette first and even though he knows all her flaws he loves her even more for it. If that makes sense?
Julian "I know how to hurt Diego without touching him" Blackthorn is the definition of "therapy helps."
I know! People acting like Julian is bland and vanilla. Julian is anything but mid tier. He is either at the top or bottom.
Jem has my heart forever ❤❤❤
2. Will
3. Jace ( my first love )
4. Julian (i somehow didn’t feel attached to him at all)
i know i’m delulu bc the flaws you pointed out about jacks went in one ear and out the other🍏the way i would run to the end of the world for that not-boy
I have loved Gilbert since I saw the 80s show as a child. I've secretly always been so jealous of Anne!
I was way too happy when Cari included Jacks in that tier... Because honestly 😏
Okay okay Rhysand is to me as Edward was to me in middle school… they are my inner world boyfriends and lovers 4ever 😂
Also how is Edward not here!?
you described how i feel about him perfectly 😭
@@pinkmenace2452 same
It makes my heart so happy that Gilbert Blythe made this list. 💓
I just got back from book shopping (thrift stores popped off today) and this is the first thing I see when I get home, what a magical day. Thanks Cari, you're doing amazing sweetie.
Jacks needs more than an exorcism tbh😶
Also SO AGREE WE NEED AN EXPLANATION FOR THE APPLE OBSESSION. 4 books across 2 series and we still don't know why he's always eating apples of varying colors😭
I will defend Jacks of the Hollow till the day I die. You want a three page essay? Done. Want a two hour rant? My pleasure. I love him so much-
girl i was so confused when you put a geralt of rivia picture alkshlkjadshkjsdh
Most of my favorites were in "You need therapy." 🤣🤣🤣
Love Jacks, too, though
Will Herondale will always have my heart. Is my favorite of all the boy characters of Cassandra Clare. After I really conected with Jem and Julian. My soulmate book boyfriends are Jaime Fraser and Mr Darcy too.
Lolol. Rhysand absolutely needs therapy, though I would be happy to make it work.
I'm literally only a few pages into Clockwork Angel and I'm already in love with Jem... How 😍
Love to see Jem getting all the love, he deserves nothing less ❤❤❤
I have such a love/hate relationship with the ACOTAR series but I do kinda wanna see Azriel be at the center of the story... I'm conflicted lol
So glad that Jem and Will won. They have always been my favorite love triangle because they never get crazy jealous and i could actually identify with Tessa. You cannot make me choose you cannot!
NIKOLAI DESERVES MORE VOTES!!! WE HAVE FAILED HUMANITY TODAY
I'm now curious about these books, seems like a good read. Honestly, my first book loves were Horace and Will from Ranger's Apprentice and Alex from Alex Rider. My comfort books
I was getting worried there near the end wondering where my boys Will and Jem were. So glad they're in the top.

I was holding my breath leading up to Nikolai. I love that boi! Also Gilbert, Jem and Peeta are golden bois!
I fell in love with Rhysand when he licked the tears off Feyre’s face in the first book. I am also married 😅
Wait! Where does Rhysand lick Feyre's tears?? 😆

@@frostbittenspirits thanks! I totally forgot all about that!
Our husband❤
Not me crying when Cassian was put in the friend zone tier👀🤣
As someone who played Cassian in an ACOMAF/ACOWAR dance show adaptation, I was waiting to see where he ranked in all this. "Obnoxious" was the exact word I was given by the director to play him as. 100% spot on. 😂
I’m so unfamiliar with so many of these characters but Katz and Nina are just love. It’s cool seeing them on here when six of crows is so far my favorite YA books behind a hunger Games. Nothing really has beaten those books. I love that the trilogy and duopoly of both those stories is so engaging and fulfilling and doesn’t start good and worse as it goes on.
Thank you so much for putting Rhysand so low. I was worried her might make it up higher considering people fall victim to the narrative and influence of the books making him seem like the perfect guy but really is NAWT.
Thank you for doing this video!
