The 10 Best Book Girlfriends

As we gear up for Valentine’s Day, the term “Book Boyfriend” has been popular on social media. But what about “Book Girlfriends’?

The more romance or fantasy novels are released, the more girlfriends to choose from.

Female authors know how to write love stories and know how to write a swoon-worthy leading woman Sometimes, especially in Romantasy novels, the female lead is the one all readers want to be like and maybe even find them to be their ideal partner.

The women listed below have the most well-rounded arcs in their designated series. They all carry themselves with grace, fearlessness and empathy. No matter which female lead you identify with or seek qualities in a girlfriend, the characters listed below have been staples in Fantasy and Romance novels.

The strength and resilience of Violent Sorrengail from Fourth Wing and Feyre from A Court of Thorns and Roses not only make our hearts swoon but also make readers want to be more like them. They have such endearing qualities much like Bella Swan and Elizabeth Bennett that we would all love to have in our lives. The Red Rising series would be incomplete for HOWLERS without Mustang and Victra!

We love the female characters below and want others to love them as much as we do!
