There’s something about a man who can write poetry. I don’t mean that unshowered guy we all knew in college who was all wrapped up in his own emotions and wrote deep works of art that no one could understand. I mean real poetry that flows from the heart and pierces the soul. Since April … More Literary Hunk of April: Doctor Yuri Zhivago
Bless me, readers, for I have sinned. It’s been two and a half weeks since my last post, and I’m about to get wildly inappropriate talking about a priest—all during this season of lent. But, guys, he’s a fictional priest. And also, let’s be honest–he doesn’t take his priestly vows all that seriously. Obviously, I’m … More Literary Hunk of March: Father Ralph de Bricassart
February is the month of love, and no literary hunk brings on those ooey-gooey, heart-a-fluttering feelings quite like Ross Poldark. I fell in love with him hard and fast through Winston Graham’s novels, and, as a woman with eyes, I basically lost my mind over Aidan Turner’s portrayal in the Poldark TV series. The name … More Literary Hunk of February: Ross Poldark
203 years ago today, bookish life changed. Fitzwilliam Darcy came into the world. That’s right, friends. On this day, Pride and Prejudice was published and Jane Austen pretty much ruined all other men for us forever. Yes, he’s kind of a jerk. Yes, he’s way too elitist and yes, he’s incredibly socially awkward. But, … More Literary Hunk of January: Fitzwilliam Darcy
Droughtlanders, I know you’re feeling me on this. Pretty much ever since the second we found out that there would be a second season of Outlander (Halleluiah!), we’ve all been dying to know the same thing: WHO WILL PLAY OUR FOREVER AND ALWAYS BOYFRIEND ROGER MAC?!?! Earlier this month, our Christmas miracle arrived. The powers … More Literary Hunk of December: Roger Wakefield
Folks, I’m thankful. I’m thankful that Mockingjay: Part 2 has finally been released. I’m thankful that it exceeded my already sky-high expectations. I’m thankful that it’s jam-packed with Gale Hawthorne, because I love me some Gale Hawthorne, and I’m thankful for Liam Hemsworth for playing him so perfectly. (I’d also like to say a special … More Literary Hunk of November: Gale Hawthorne
October has been quite the month for Adriana Trigiani. Her new novel, All the Stars in the Heavens, has just been released, and her beautifully gorgeous adaptation of Big Stone Gap has finally reached the big screen. (Written and directed by her. It’s fantastic. You have to see it.) To keep the party going—and because … More Literary Hunk of October: Jack Mac
It’s hard to believe that we’ve already covered a full year’s worth of literary hunks. Thank God there’s a never-ending supply of gushable crushables, because I am really excited to kick off year two. We started this blog with Professor Bhaer, so it’s only fitting that we spend this September honoring Little Women’s other resident … More Literary Hunk of September: Teddy “Laurie” Laurence
In going through our recent Literary Hunks of the Month, I made a discovery: a lot of our dreamboats this year have been, well, somewhat questionable characters. (Although I prefer to think of them as misunderstood and in need of hugs.) But what about those guys who are truly good, through and through? Don’t they … More Literary Hunk of August: Stephen Colly
We are smack dab in the middle of summer, and I don’t know about you, but I could totally go for an over-the-top, totally decadent West Egg party right about now. Okay. Not really. Those things can get crazy, and the crowd’s a bit much for me, and the thought of what to wear … More Literary Hunk of July: Jay Gatsby
