**Sidekick Showcase ~ #34 ~ Snubbed**



Sidekick Showcase (previously known as Sidekick Saturday) is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by Jaclyn at JC's Book Haven. There are many secondary characters that are as great as the primaries. In some cases, the sidekicks actually steal the show and you like them better than the heroine or hero. Maybe they didn't have enough page time for how great they were. Anyone can play along! Just do the following:

• Choose a sidekick *or someone other than the hero or heroine* that you would like to put in the spotlight that fits in this week's type

• Share a picture (if possible) and information about the character
• Give the title and author of a book the character can be found in
• Please don't include too many spoilers when describing why the character is such a great sidekick
• Put your link in the Linky thing and comment


**********************************
March's themes revolve around the Oscars and St. Patrick's Day. Since the Oscars are this weekend, I'm going with that theme. I came up with something I thought was an awesome theme - but I had a hard time coming up with a character.

My theme is SNUBBED 
My choice of character: 

Jacob Black
from Stephenie Meyers' Twilight Saga

Jacob was a pretty obvious choice, no? He's kinda like Leonardo DiCaprio...it doesn't matter the caliber of performance he gives, the Academy still snubs him. Jacob did everything he could think of to try to win Bella. He was always there when she needed him, to lend a shoulder to cry on, to share information - sometimes unwittingly - to build a motorcycle with. And every single time, he was snubbed.
