Q: Fight! Fight! If you could have two fictional characters battle it out (preferably from books), who would they be and who do you think would win?  


A:  Penelope Hayes from The Luxe series VS.  Blair Waldorf from Gossip Girl!
The whole time I was reading The Luxe series I couldn't stop thinking about what would happen if Blair were plopped down in 1899 Manhattan and had to go up against Penelope.  I think Miss Hayes would definitely be given a run for her money.  However, in the end I think Penelope would win.  She's just more ruthless than Blair and doesn't have the obstacles of compassion or conscience to stand in her way.  You can bet though that they would be (very ladylike of course) frienemies.  The witty banter and catty plotting would be worth it for me!

  2. Love your choices! Blair can get pretty catty, so it'd be an interesting fight!
    And also, hooray for English teachers:) You're getting your certification in both English and history? I fall under the first category.

  9. I just read the Luxe but I haven't read Gossip Girls yet, so I have to say that Penelope would win. But that would be some intense cat fight. :)
