I'm sure there are more that I can't think of right now.

I like Edward-Bella, Ron-Hermione...SORRY!😳

I really don't know much about Ginny-Harry to say much.

I can't stand Elinor/Edward-->Sense and Sensibility by Jane Austen--Just CANNOT stand that couple...ughhhh

No you won't. Everyone has their opinions! Besides, Ron-Hermione is popular here. What are you talking about? :P😆😆

Thanks so much...that's sweet of you. Not many Edward-Bella fans here, though? Edited by phenomenalgal - 15 years ago

My least favourite would be Edward-Bella and Harry-Hermione(never been able to figure that one out.😕) In general, I would say I dislike fictional romance that reads like a Harlequin romance novel (well not to say that I hate romance novels but if I am reading a good novel I expect the romance to believable and not rushed in any sort.) For me the longer the waiting time of the protagonists, it feels better when they actually get together. After, all one can't understand what's happiness if hasn't known dissapoinment. 😆

Aww, don't worry. You have a right to like what you want.😳😃 No one will hate you for it.

 

And I read a bit of Sense and Sensibility, but found it a bit boring, nothing like Pride and Prejudice. I also enjoyed Mr. Knightley and Emma Woodhouse in Emma, Henry Tilney and Catherine Morland in Northanger Abbey, and I'm in the middle of Manfield Park right now but so far love the couple of Edmund Bertram and Fanny Price.😳⭐️ Jane Austen's a genius when it comes to romances, at least in most of her books. Like you said, S&S is a bit of a bore.

Lily Bart-Lawrence Selden-I reread House of Mirth the other day, and it brought back all of the memories I had of disliking Lawrence Selden fresh into my conscious. The way he conveniently disregards Lily during her time of need and his love for her, choosing to believe the worst, and leaving her to fend for herself in the cruel milieu of the high society of NYC . And then realizing how wrong he was when it is already too late. Edith Wharton is a lovely writer though, and this is my favorite Wharton novel. This book accurately shows the limited options for a woman of that time period in the late 19th century and the perils of associating in high society. How Selden is allowed to go on with his life while Lily must die for no good reason despite the fact that she has no debts left unpaid is a bitter pill to swallow.

I also don't like Luna and Rolf Scamander in HP (who the heck is he?). If people thought Harry and Ginny were not developed, Luna's "relationship" with this so called Rolf was nill!
