I always hate this question. When people say "What character is most like you?" I never know what to say.
I see myself in bits and pieces of several different characters that I have read over the years. How do you explain that to someone?
Whether it is having a brother 13 years older than me and not liking taking medicine when I'm sick because I don't like the way it dulls my senses like June from 'Legend' by Marie Lu.
Or whether it is just by finding a character that is taller than normal like Faith Daniels in 'Pulse' by Patrick Carman.
Or whether it is something that I hope I have. A brave, ferocious, strength that so many characters in the Young Adult Fiction world has. Ruby from 'The Darkest Minds' by Alexandra Bracken, Tris from 'Divergent' by Veronica Roth, Cia from 'The Testing' by Joelle Charbonneau, Robie from 'The Raft' by S.A. Bodeen, and many, many more.

I may not have exactly answered the question, but this is my blog. I do what I want ;)
