Hi guys! In honor of Cursed Child being released at the end of the month, I signed up to take part in Potterhead July. So today, I’ll be sorting 15 of my favorite characters from some of my favorite books/series into Hogwarts houses! I’ll use the standard four, and also combinations of two houses if I can’t decide on just one. 😀I’m really excited to do this, so let’s just jump right into it!
1. Aelin from Throne of Glass by Sarah J. Maas.
Slytherdor. She’s fierce and brave, but also sly and willing to do anything that needs to be done.
2. Feyre from A Court of Thorns and Roses by Sarah J. Maas.
Gryffinpuff. She’s loyal to the Inner Circle, and brave even after Under the Mountain. Once she masters her abilities, she’ll be hard to beat. (And I can’t wait for that!) 😀
3. Julian from Lady Midnight by Cassandra Clare.
Ravenpuff. He’s dedicated to help his siblings and Emma in any way possible, and has been since he was twelve. His more logical thinking counters Emma’s impulsiveness.
4. Cress from The Lunar Chronicles by Marissa Meyer.
Ravenpuff. She’s an extremely talented hacker, and very loyal and grateful to the rest of the Rampion crew for getting her off the satellite she lived on.
5. Inej from Six of Crows by Leigh Bardugo.
Slytherpuff. She’s sly and ruthless, but also loyal to Kaz for a few different reasons.
6. Nikolai from Siege and Storm by Leigh Bardugo.
Gryffinclaw. He’s smart enough to build things and brave enough to fight with them. (Spoilers force me to be so vague. >.< )
7. Kenji from Shatter Me by Tahereh Mafi.
Ravenpuff. He’s one of the higher ranking people in the revolution, and is loyal and fair to the other people in it. He also has a fabulous sense of humor. XD
8. Dee from Lux by Jennifer L. Armentrout.
Hufflepuff. She’s so optimistic and friendly, and the most loyal friend you could have. There’s really no where else to put her. 😉
9. Étienne from Anna and The French Kiss by Stephanie Perkins.
Hufflepuff. He’s basically the male version of Dee, but in a contemporary setting. Oh, and he’s not an alien. I guess that’s a pretty big difference. 😛
10. Percy from Percy Jackson and the Olympians by Rick Riordan.
Gryffinpuff. He’s a brave and talented fighter, especially for his age. (He goes to Camp Half-Blood fairly young.) He’s also very protective and loyal toward both camps. ❤
11. Amy from Across The Universe by Beth Revis.
Gryffinclaw. She’s brave enough to be cryogenically frozen and taken to a new planet just to be with her parents, and when things go wrong she’s very helpful on the ship and the planet. 😀
12. Arin from The Winner’s Curse by Marie Rutkoski.
Slytherclaw. He’s very sneaky and cunning, which you’ll get if you’ve read the book, and a quick-thinking leader for the cause. (Again, you’ll know if you’ve read it.)
13. Rose from Vampire Academy by Richelle Mead.
Gryffinpuff. She’s strong and sassy, probably one of the best dhampirs at the Academy, and fiercely loyal to her best friend Lissa. ❤
14. Millard from Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children by Ransom Riggs.
Gryffinclaw. He uses his invisibility as an advantage and helps the peculiars when they’re in trouble. He’s also very studious, and good at planning and connecting the dots, so to speak. 🙂
15. Zu from The Darkest Minds by Alexandra Bracken.
Gryffinpuff. For a little girl, she’s very brave. She defends herself and the rest of the group when necessary with her powers, even though she doesn’t like to. And after Liam and Chubs helped her escape along with them, she’ll do anything to help. I’m only halfway through reading it, but she’s my favorite so far. ❤
And that wraps up my little sorting ceremony!
My challenge for you guys is to think of your favorite book character, one I didn’t include in my post, and sort them! I’d love to see what you come up with! 🙂
I’m off to read or play Splatoon. I hope you’re all having a fabulous day/night! ❤
Until next time…
Come visit me! 😀
I think you nailed Cress! She is a cinnamon roll, of course, so I would have just sorted her into Hufflepuff, but I think you make a great point in that she’s quite skilled, so the addition of Ravenclaw also makes perfect sense. Inej, Nikolai, and Percy are also more true than not, although I’m struggling to decide if Percy was always part Hufflepuff or if part of it arose through his maturity. He was definitely both by Titan’s Curse, though. By then and ever after, I think it is right on point. These were fun analyses of some awesome characters!

Yay, thanks! 😀 I would definitely say Percy has always been part Hufflepuff. If I remember correctly, it was said his fatal flaw is loyalty to his friends. 😉

What a fun post, Olivia! It’s interesting to see that all of the characters you chose fit into multiple houses. I think that goes to show that we all have a little bit of each house in us:)

Love this post. My Potterhead slot is on Friday and I can’t wait to post. I love the idea of sorting our favourite characters. What do you think of The Raven Boys – Gansey – Gryffindor Adam – Ravenclaw, Ronan – Slytherin, Noah – Hufflepuff, Blue – Hufflepuff.

This is a really fun idea and I love that you didn’t limit your choice to just one house for each character. I totally agree with Arin as a Slytherclaw, he is very ambitious and determined, but I do think he really appreciates learning. Great post!

I haven’t actually read any of the books you sorted characters from even though quite a few of them are on my TBR, especially Lady Midnight (since I’ve read TMI). From what I’ve heard about Julian, I’m going to really like him when I do read it. It’s hard not to love a Ravenpuff in my opinion.

I would recommend all of them, and the series they’re in!! 😀 I agree, it’s hard not to love a Ravenpuff. 😉

Great post! And I love that the characters are all dynamic and fleshed out enough that you had to pick out two houses for each haha. I especially agree with your assessment of Celaena! I personally think that Inej is a Gryffinpuff though because she’s very brave hehe.

Thank you! ❤️ If I had to only pick one house it would’ve been really hard. XD Honestly, Inej could fit into any of the houses, and so could a lot of these characters. 😉

This is so cute, I love how you combined the houses for some. I think everyone is kind of a bit hufflepuff, eh?
Totally agree with your Feyre sorting too!
