We've been sitting out for the past few Top Ten Tuesdays, but once Jenny and I saw the topic for this week - Top Ten Books About Friendship - we knew we couldn't pass it up. I mean, our friendship is one of the many reasons why this blog exists! And we've been BFFs for quite a while now, as you can see from this ridiculously dorky picture of us from 1996. (P.S. - You can already tell Jenny was the smartest of the bunch since she was the only one wearing sweatpants on what seems to have been a really cold day!).
Anyway, the books we chose for this week's topic don't necessarily revolve just around friendship, plot-wise. Rather, we picked the books that simply contain our favorite fictional friendships, no matter the plot, so we changed the topic to fit our picks a little better. And in the spirit of friendship, we are splitting this one 50/50!

4. Inigo and Fezzik // The Princess Bride

Great and fun choices! I had LOTR and Harry Potter as well. I'm going to read The Princess Bride soon so I guess I'll get to see the friendship in their soon... though of course I've seen the movie. :)

You can't have a friendship list without those characters for sure! Fezzik's story in the book is so much more sad than I thought it would be. I really enjoyed the book, though, and I think you will too :)
