Some of the Famous Book Characters That You Might Be
In literature, there are iconic characters that everyone would feel flattered to match. Jay Gatsby, for example, is one of them. He is loyal, successful, and—most importantly—charming.
But what are some other famous literary characters that bookworms love to resemble? (Here’s a list.)
Jay Gatsby
Despite his mysterious façade, Jay Gatsby is just an introvert with idealistic views on life. But The Great Gatsby fans admire him for his undying love and patience.
Holly Golightly
Afraid of being trapped in the cage of love, Holly Golightly of Breakfast at Tiffany’s is an adventurer who values freedom above all. She doesn’t want to exchange her free spirit for romance and is willing to better her life on her own.
Brienne of Tarth
Unlike the Game of Thrones series, Brienne, in the books, is not a perfect warrior. But she is a kind-hearted, righteous, and optimistic young lady willing to put her power to good use.
Harry Potter
Out of all the Harry Potter characters, Harry is the most popular one. He is a fighter, one with a strong sense of right and wrong. In the books and movies, Harry is portrayed as a young man who’s competitive but not cruel. He prefers to be a man of actions—rather than words.
BookTok and BookTWT Characters Included
The good news for TikTok and Twitter bookworms is that the Famous Book Character Quiz has a database of all BookTok- and BookTWT-loved personalities.
In other words, you are likely to match your comfort character, who’s an internet sensation as well.

How to Play?
Playing personality quizzes is straightforward: Choose the option that’s true about you—or you relate to—and select “Next.” Unlike trivia quizzes, personality tests have no right or wrong answers. But the questions are in forced-choice format. The point is to push you to choose an option that makes the most sense, not the one that’s 100% true. For the most accurate results, don’t overthink your responses. Go with options that you “feel” are the best.
