Question: Whats your favorite book based on a female character!?
Whats your favorite book based on a female character!?
Example: Madame Bovery, Jane Eyre, and my favorite Anna Karenina!.Www@QuestionHome@Com


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
Gone with the wind by Margaret Mitchell
Scarlet O'Hara is one great piece of art, well, literature in this case!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Jane Eyre by far!. Amazing!!! Did you find it to be a feminist novel!? What did you think of the portrayed of all of the male characters in the novel!? Were you upset when she settled for Mr!. Rochester!? Did she really love him!? I didn't think she did!. I believe that Rochester was the first kind guy in her life and instead of a husband, she was looking for a father figure!. She confused a love from a father (which she ultimately desired) for love from a husband!. I was a bit disappointed by the ending!. Why, after such an exciting life did she settle for Rochester!? Why didn't she stay single!? Anyway, great novel based on a female character can definitely see the underlying issues in Charlotte Bronte!. Emma by Jane Austen was pretty good too!.

the best would have to be Pride and Prejudice!. I can't help but relate every page to real life and notice that Elizabeth is one of the most realistic characters ever created!. She has emotions, flaws, and feelings that when combined seem real enough so that the reader can take a story set hundreds of years ago and compare it to todays dramaWww@QuestionHome@Com

Alanna!.!.!.

Alanna: The First Adventure (Song of the Lioness Series #1)
by Tamora Pierce

also really liked Lyra (and Pantalaimon) from

The Golden Compass (His Dark Materials Series #1)
by Philip PullmanWww@QuestionHome@Com

Without doubt, Jane Austen's "Pride and Prejudice!."

As for something a little more modern, Tanya Huff's "Victoria Nelson Series" (aka The Blood Books) are pretty awesome!.

I love both female leads :]Www@QuestionHome@Com
