My Book Boyfriend #20


My Book Boyfriend is hosted by the awesome blogger Missie at The Unread Reader.   What is My Book Boyfriend you might ask.  Well it is a weekly meme where we talk about a literary crush including stats, a picture of what you imagine he looks like and some quotes from him that make you swoon.  If you are interested in participating please check out Missie blog The Unread Reader.

Four from Divergent

He has a sparse upper lip and a fuller lower lip.  His eyes are so deep-set that his eyelashes touch the skin under his eyebrows, and they are dark blue, a dreaming sleeping waiting colour.


Four would have to be one of my favourite book boyfriends.  He is not the most gentle or sweetest guy but he is smart, fair, trustworthy and brave.  Oh and not to mention a bit of a dare devil.

He sinks to the floor and pulls me down with him, so he is sitting with his back against the wall and I'm facing him, my legs trailing to the side of the dusty floor.  The wind pushes strands of my hair loose and tosses them over my face.  He presses his palms to my face, his index fingers sliding behind my ears, and pulls my mouth to his.

"Peter would probably throw a party if I stopped breathing.'
'Well,' he says, 'I would only go if there was cake." 




"What do you want?" Then his face tightens  "Me?"
Slowly I nod.
He nods too, and takes my hand in his gently.  He guides my palms to his stomach.  His eyes lowered, he pushes my hands up, over his neck.  My palms tingle with the feel of his skin, smooth, warm.  My face is hot, but I shiver anyway. 

"I might be in love with you." He smiles a little. "I'm waiting until I'm sure to tell you, though." 

Anybody else fall in love with Four at first read like I did?

Thanks to Missie again for hosting this awesome meme.

  15. Oh damn. . . that's hotness right there. I have this waiting at the library for me, and uh, I think I need it. As in right now.

    Sad to think that he might be a dirty frat boy if he was in our world, don't you think?

    ReplyDelete
  16. How do you do it? I'm convinced that you have a private stash of pictures just for all you book boyfriends! I love that tub shot. Perfect for Four. Can't wait to read the book myself to find out why they call him that.

    ReplyDelete
  17. Heck yes I fell in love with him! Four is definitely one of my top favorite book boyfriends EVER! Great post! :)

    ReplyDelete

  27. First I want to say that I love your new design. I'm probably one of the few who haven't read Divergent yet but I have heard of how awesome Four is.

    ReplyDelete
  28. Oh! he sounds kind of cheeky, but I like that you say he's fair and trustworthy, I dig that in a guy!

    ReplyDelete
  29. Woa! Gorgeous guy :) I must read Divergent soon.
    Btw, I think I am in love with your new design.

    ReplyDelete
  30. I LOVED Divergent. And I also fell in love with Four. My favorite parts would be when Tris thought that he was being mean to her by always telling her what she could do better, or right. To be more brave ;-) That really stood out to me because it was his way of saying that he truly cared for her. He wanted her to try harder so that she could survive in his world.

    If you haven't read Divergent by Veronica Roth, I highly recommend it! You won't be disappointed!

  31. OMG! Four ! Love this guy! I loved reading Divergent! Such an awesome book!

    ReplyDelete

  34. I have this book in my library tote bag. I just never got a chance to take a break and read it. I must correct that ASAP! Lovely pics and I can't wait to meet Four. :)

    ReplyDelete
  35. Nic, the photos you find just kill me! *fanning myself* Still have yet to read Divergent, but I must say, your book boyfriend sounds pretty cute!

    ReplyDelete
  36. I haven't read Divergent yet, but I'm in LUST. Great pick, Nic! :)

    ReplyDelete
  37. I haven't read Divergent yet, but from those quotes, I think I'm in love with him already!

    Great pose Nic!

  38. Due to an internet outage yesterday I missed this post and am certainly glad I checked it out. I love the photo of Four in the tub (where do you get these pics?) Four is gorgeous and subtle in his hotness and one many things I love about Divergent!

  39. You pick THE perfect real life people for the characters. My jaw cant help but drop everytime I see your My Book Boyfriend posts.

  40. nic

    i wish i had been imagining that boy as four the whole time i was reading it. hotness. and those looks are really intense. love it.

    i think four and i got of to a bad start or something :/ i am going to read #2 and see if i can't use this book boyfriend post to stir something up a little :) LOVE the quote you included here

    ReplyDelete
  41. You have major skills, Nic. When I was putting together your birthday-wall-o'-hot-guys, I knew to just look through all your book boyfriend posts. I have no idea which one is my favorite, and I also have no clue how you find all these hot guys that I've never heard of!

    You should do a posting on how it is that you are aware of all these hot guys that are totally off my radar.

    That is all.
