Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme created by the Broke and the Bookish, with a different top ten book list each week.
This week: Top Ten Favorite Kick-Ass Heroines
These ladies from these books were just too awesome, and I loved reading about their adventures! I know there are tons more that could be added to the list, but these were the ones off the top of my head. They aren’t in any particular order.
- Katsa from Graceling
- Celaena from Throne of Glass
- Ismae from Grave Mercy
- Alanna from the Song of the Lioness Series
- Meghan from the Iron Fey series
- Maria from the Last Bastion of the Living
- Tris from Divergent
- Jenni and Katie from The First Days
- Jenny from Jenny Pox
- Astrid from Rampant
What are some of your favourite heroines? Leave a comment and I’ll see make sure to visit you!

Great list! A few of those I don’t know but I can’t wait to meet them if they’ve made your kick-ass heroine list.
Those first three would be my top picks, too, besides Saba from the Dust Lands series and Katniss from THG.
I love your choices! Obviously Katsa, Ismae, Tris – I haven’t read Jenny Pox yet but I do have it on my Kindle! So that means I’ll get to it a year from now haha
I’ve only actually read two of these series, but I agree with Meghan and Tris being included! I’ll definitely be reading books from the rest of your list soon. I’m bumping Graceling up my list quickly as I’ve seen it on so many top tens today!
My TTT
Fantastic choices! Can’t wait to read Ismae’s story. Thanks for stopping by today!
Celaena! I also agree on Tris & Meghan (can’t believe I forgot to add her to my list!)
TTT @thedailyprophecy.

I love your list! Ok,so technically the only choice we have in common for TTT is Tris BUT I actually own Graceling & Grave Mercy…and I just know I’m going to love both, they’re right up my alley! Also really want to read Throne of Glass & The Iron Fey series

Meghan and Katsa are such great choices. And I forgot about Rampant! Looking forward to Jenny Pox and Grave Mercy too.
Great list! I actually haven’t read a lot of these, BUT you did give me a reminder to put Rampant back on hold at the library!
Aaaah, we picked some of the same people! Too cool!
