Q: Have you had a character that disappointed you? One that you fell in love with and then "broke up" with later on in either the series or a stand-alone book? Tell us about him or her.
This is a hard question for me because usually it's the opposite. I don't like a character in the beginning but they grow on me later on. Alison brought up a good one though that I agree with Gale from The Hunger Games. I felt like I expected so much more from him but his character really fell flat in the last book.

I was really disappointed with Gale in the last book too.
Total agreement with Gale! I was more disappointed at Katniss for not "picking" him...

New FOllower!
To be honest, I thought she took a pretty cheep direction in writing off Gale the way she did. Look, he's kind of maybe a murderer, you can't marry him! Better marry Peeta! Really? That's hardly a choice at all! New follower! My Follow
Wow Gale is not feeling the love tonight lol. I need to read the last two.

A lot of people chose Gale. I need to read the last 2 books to form my opinion.
Great answer !

Hopping through. Gale was so disappointing. I wish he'd redeemed himself.

Same here! First I dislike characters, then slowly I start to like them. I had some issues with Gale, too, though I was more disappointed in the plot of the book overall than in him. *sigh*

Gale is a popular answer! I've been Team Peeta since the first book. Lol.
Have a great weekend!

Does it make me a horrible person that I never got as far as the last book? Too many of the characters disppointed me in the first couple to keep going.

You are literally like the 20th person who has mentioned Gale from Hunger Games. I totally haven't read the books yet. Now when I do, I'm gonna totally be waiting to hate him for no reason. Oh why oh why haven't I read those books yet!

I'm an old Linky follower, but am now also following via GFC.
I haven't yet read The Hunger Games, but you're not the only one that mentioned this particular character. I, too, really hate when a character doesn't live up to my expectations (development-wise).

I loved Gale! I wasn't too disappointed with him. He gave up on Katniss but she basically told him too. Oh well he probably has a hot wife in his new district.

I am on chapter 5 of the last book and I have to agree he's not the kind of character I was led to perceive him as in the earlier books.
