7 of 2018’s #iconic YA Heroines

2018 was a good year for shelves. And, let’s be honest: there’s no way to list all the absolutely iconic characters to grace our pages. So, let’s start with these seven:

 

1. Emika from Wildcard

Wildcard

Because it takes a pretty iconic protagonist to defeat someone taking over the world (especially when you’re IN LOVE WITH HIM *cries*)

 

2. Donatella from Legendary

Pretty iconic to dive headfirst into the game that nearly killed you the first time, no?

 

3. Odessa from Reign of the Fallen

Reign

Because going into the underworld is no joke. And tbh death monsters aren’t either.

 

4. Caledonia from Seafire

Fiery redhead with a girl crew? Yes, yes please.

 

5. Aelin from Kingdom of Ash

91MbZ+Vbv4L

But tbh you are also iconic for reading all 1,000 pages. *goes to re-read again anyway*

 

6. Lady Helen from The Dark Days Deceit

THE DARK DAYS DECEIT

Because once again, Lady Helen has proved she’s got it in the epic final installment of The Dark Days series.

 

7. Laia from A Reaper at the Gates

Of course, we would never expect anything less than #iconic from our queen of the Ember Quartet. We’re just really, really scared about what might happen to her next.
