Character Love: Graves from Strange Angels

Greetings Earthlings!!

So my first post for the Character Love Mondays is Graves, from the series Strange Angels. Specifically first-book Graves.

He. Is. Precious.

The little dorkling of a skinny goth kid is so lost and yet so willing to take Dru at her word. He's sweet, funny, kind-hearted, cute, smart, and just..... Baby.

Later on in the series, he becomes a bit of a power-house, which is really cool. But I think I like version 1 of Graves the best. There's something endearing about his stupid awkwardity and the not-quite-jokes that he does.

So that you know what this character that I'm raving about looks like, here's a description I found on the Strange Angels wiki:

Graves is described as being a half-asian with a baby-face and a big bird-like nose. In fact, Dru mentions several times how bird-like Graves looks and acts. His messy dark wavy hair often covers his eyes completely. His eyes are described as brown and green, changing, ranging from vibrant green to brown - which could mean his eyes are just a fickle shade of hazel. Dru often mentions how he has good skin, despite the fact he doesn't care for it much. It is also implied that he is very tall and lanky and skinny. It is presumed that he is the same age as Dru.

 There is also a picture of him on the second book in the series, but it isn't quite right. Actually- none of the pictures of the characters are quite right. But anyways. Moving on from that...

Graves is just a little cutie pie. It's worth reading the books, if only just for him. (Although the plots are fabulous as well.)

Thanks for dropping by and look forwards to a review of something on Thursday!
