My Favorite Character

Ugh, you ask the hardest questions. I love so many characters how can I choose just one? I have to pick James Adams, main character of the original CHERUB series. When you have 12 books to evolve with a character, you have no other choice than to like him.

He changed many times throughout the books, both physically and mentally.  At the beginning of the first book, we met James Adams, regular jock.  Physically, he evolved to become fit and stronger through CHERUB training.  Mentally, he dealt with the loss of his mom, home, and everything he knew. Throughout the series, he became more likable until, he cheated on his longtime girlfriend, Kerry. I cannot tell you how much I hated him. And the worst part? He NEVER said sorry until he and the girl he cheated on her with were broken up. I hated him for those 3/4 books. But, slowly he became mature until by the 12th book, Shadow Wave (which I am currently reading) he is faithful to Kerry (who got back together with him) and he discovers Kerry is his one true love and tells her he wants to move to America with her but, she dismisses that and him, putting him in a depressed state, which he will go on the mission with. It is the main point of the book that James really wants to be with Kerry forever, different than his old cheating self. I relate to James because we both aspire to do great things, we are slackers in school (sorry Mrs. Lipman), and we both care about friends and family and will do what it takes to keep those people safe.

Thanks for Reading,
