Q: Happy Father's Day! 
Who is your favorite dad character in a book and why?

 My first thought was Kaylee's Dad 
From the Soul Screamers series by Rachel Vincent

 My Soul to Take (Soul Screa...   My Soul to Save (Soul Screa...   My Soul to Keep (Soul Screa...   My Soul to Steal (Soul Scre...   If I Die (Soul Screamers, #5)   Before I Wake (Soul Screame...

Kaylee's dad was absent for a lot of her life and kept things from her. I hated him for that at first but as the series continued I loved that he stepped up and tried to be a better father. He is also funny at times and I always loved how he kicked Nash out of the house. "Nash go home" Cause then Tod can just blink in hehe


Then I scanned through 100s of books I read and could only find one other awesome dad or I should say dads!
Lola's Dad's 
From Lola and the Boy Next Door by Stephanie Perkins 

Lola and the Boy Next Door

Lola's Dad's are so supportive and cool but also super loving! You really just have to read it to really know but they took her in and loved her when her mom was a deadbeat. Awesome Dad's.

    I said the same thing about it being hard to think of a father in a book. In most books, parents are either absent or just horrible. I guess parents are just uncool. New follower!

    I LOVED the dads in Lola! Great choice! And I've only read the first Soul Screamer book so I barely saw her dad, but now I'm anxious to continue and see how it goes!

    I totally agree about Kaylees dad, he doesn't start off great but turns out to be awesome. I felt so sorry for him in If I Die. Lucas' dad in Dreamless is also a good one. He would do anything for his family and those he cares about.

    Nice!! Saw Kaylee's dad earlier elsewhere too! I did like him! Just not his choice to leave Kaylee behind in the first book. But all has been forgiven now! :)

    Points for originality, my friend! I've not come across a Kaylee's Dad mention so that's exciting. Unfortunately, I only got through two books in the series before something about it just turned me off to the whole thing. STILL. I wish I would've stuck around if to get to know Kaylee's mysterious dad.

    And Lola's dads just plain rock. Love them both so hard!!
