Feature & Follow Friday! (#18)

*Fun blog hop feature hosted by Parajunkee's View and Alison Can Read*

Q: Happy Mother's Day! Who is your favorite mom from fiction?


That's a good question...usually I don't care much or focus on character's parents let alone mothers but one that really stood out was Penryn's mother in Angelfall (Penryn & The End of Days). Man...that woman is all kinds of crazy and super badass—I mean you'd have to be to survive that long in a post-apocalyptic society where cruel and murderous angels rule what's left of the world. I also LOVE that book to pieces and the mother really shocked the hell out of me! For literature's sake that is saying a lot so I nominate her as my favorite fictional mother. :)

Whose your favorite fictional mom?? Leave a comment below!

  2. I know what you mean... I too don't really pay attention to parents. Unless they are bad parents and then it's funny I totally notice them!!!

    1. Haha yes! Unless they're significant in some way to the story than they are remembered if not they are completely forgotten :P

      Thanks for dropping by! Happy Friday :)

  3. Hopping through. Mothers are usually a secondary character so are easy to forget. It took me awhile to think of an answer.
