post image

#AlltheBooksOf2017 #FavoriteNewcharacters Here are three guys who found a place in my heart this reading year...Cyril from HIF, Leo from History of Love & the protagonist of Michel Chabon‘s semi autobiographical novel Moonglow ❤️❤️❤️ I have a soft spot for grumpy old man, who are really just misunderstood teddy bears 🐻 These celebs are sort of who I imagined as I read these novels.... Conan O‘ Brien, Jerry Stiller & Lee Cobb. Images from Google

KarenUK Leo! 💕💕💕💕.... Love your casting! (edited) 7y
Billypar This may be the first time I've seen Lee Cobb mentioned outside of discussion about one of his films. Great actor- looks like you got a pic from one of his nicer characters 🙂 7y
Cinfhen Ha!!! @Billypar he just screams 1950's old time Jewish gangster 😉 7y

Billypar @Cinfhen Nice...I can see it! I think when I do read Moonglow it will be impossible not to picture him now. 7y
Cinfhen It's a crazzzy read @Billypar definitely on my #BestList2017 can't wait for you to read it... 7y
Mdargusch Good casting! 7y
Hollie I also loved Ove, so I definitely have a soft spot for these types of men, too! 7y
erzascarletbookgasm I have not read any of these! Interesting casting 🙂 7y
Cinfhen I read Ove in 2016 @Hollie but I loved him too!!! I kept referring to Leo Gursky from History of Love as the “Jewish Ove” 😍😂 7y
Booksnchill @cinfhen well that‘s a couple more to add to the stack- nice post, thanks! 7y
amycollard I loved Heart‘s Invisible Furies so much! 7y
Hollie @Cinfhen Leo Gursky was such a good character. He definitely was the Jewish Ove! 7y
emilyhaldi Good choices! Cyril is a no-brained as one of my favs this year too ❤️ 7y
Reviewsbylola I feel like I imagine Jerry Stiller in my head whenever I read about a funny, grumpy old man. 😂😂 7y
EvieBee Jerry Stiller is spot on! That‘s the way I imagined him, and he‘s Jewish! 7y
Cinfhen Thanks @EvieBee @Reviewsbylola Jerry Stiller will always be the "funny, grumpy old man" and such an iconic "Jewish" figure 7y
Cathythoughts 👍❤️❤️ I think I‘ve only seen Jerry Stiller in Seinfeld, but I loved his role in this so much. Excellent (edited) 7y
britt_brooke Nice choices! 7y
