This week's Top Ten Tuesday is a freebie so I am going with...

Top Ten Sidekick/Not Main Characters That Need Their Own Series (or for the original series to be told from their perspective)

Sometimes I feel like I'm not the main character in my own story but rather the side character, which is fine. I do not need to spotlight at all. However, there are some book characters that I don't think received enough (or the right) attention in their own stories and therefore I am telling you today which book characters need their own books! Or origin stories! Or just rewrite the book from their perspective because it would be more interesting that way! So without further ado...

The Silver Trio: Neville/Luna/Ginny from Harry Potter by J.K. Rowling
I am the biggest Luna fangirl in existence and don't even get me started on my love for Ginny and Neville. I think there needed to be a little less Harry/Ron/Hermoine and lots more of these three. Who are SO BADASS and get so little acknowledgement of it. I would love to have OotP, HBP, and DH all rewritten from their perspective for sure, but the whole series would please me even more.

The Golden Guard: Baldair & The Gang from Air Awakens by Elise Kova
Everyone who reads this blog knows I love the Air Awakens series, specially Baldair, so OF COURSE I WANT STUFF FROM HIS POV. Like a Golden Guard miniseries maybe? Or just rewrite this series from his perspective. I can even think of the story now: "Baldair noticed Vhalla and Aldrik spending lots of time together but gave zero fucks because he was doing OTHER THINGS" Because I NEED TO KNOW what these other things are.

Summary:
SHE’S THE ULTIMATE WEAPON IN FIGHTING DESTINY.
 
New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Suzanne Brockmann and her daughter Melanie Brockmann have written a pulse-pounding novel of paranormal suspense set in a near future both fantastic and frightening.

Skylar Reid is shaken when Sasha, the little girl she babysits, is kidnapped. Scared that the weird dreams she’s been having about Sasha are real—and even more afraid that Sasha is already dead. When a mysterious girl with extreme butt-kicking abilities roars into town on a motorcycle and, well, stalks Skylar things get even weirder. Supergirl Dana tells Sky that she also has abilities – that a hormone in their blood makes them stronger, faster, smarter. A hormone that the makers of a new drug called Destiny will murder to get their hands on.

Dana and Milo, her dangerously hot yet oh-so-forbidden partner in crime, want Sky to join them in their mission – to mold Sky into the ultimate weapon. She can sense there’s something about her abilities they’re not telling her. But the only way to save Sasha and stop other girls from being taken is to embrace the weird…and fight Destiny.

Message From The Authors Suzanne and Melanie Brockmann



MelWild Sky is a paranormal story, set in Florida, approximately fifty years in the future. In this world, a small percentage of people, mostly girls and young women, are born with a chemical in their blood that gives them superpowers like telekinesis or extraordinary strength.



Suz: Nicknamed “Greater-Thans” or “G-Ts,” these girls have been targeted for kidnapping by bad guys who harvest their blood and use it to manufacture a drug called “Destiny.” Destiny is extremely expensive, highly addictive, and ultimately fatal, but before the user dies from it, the drug reverses the aging process, heals illness and injury, and gives the addict super powers, too.
