Boys in books are just better! Mostly because they are made-up and can be the perfect person that doesn't really exist and is a total fantasy. These are my top ten list of boys (well, men) who are, in my personal opinion, better in books than anything you can find in the real world.
- Gabriel Oak "Far from the Madding Crowd" by Thomas Hardy
- Doug McCray "Prince of Thieves" by Chuck Hogan
- Ned Nickerson "Nancy Drew Mysteries" by Carolyn Keene/Mildred Wirt Benson
- Mike Hammer "Goliath Bone" and other Hammer detective novels by Mickey Spillane and (some) with Max Allan Collins
- Richard Collier "Bid Time Return" by Richard Matheson
- Fitzwilliam Darcy "Pride & Prejudice" by Jane Austen
- Colonel Brandon "Sense & Sensibility" by Jane Austen
- Phineas Fogg "Around the World in 80 Days" by Jules Verne
- Matthew Cuthbert "Anne of Green Gables" by L.M. Montgomery
- Father Damien Karras "The Exorcist" by William Peter Blatty
