If you could meet a person from a book, who would it be and why?

Nanny Ogg from the Discworld series. She's a witch, and the cure for most ailments is apple brandy. She's full of stories and humorous songs, and loves to cook.

I just want to spend a sunny afternoon with some shrooms and Tom Bombadil.

Does it have to be a book or can it be any written thing? 🤔

My answer depends on whether or not visual novels count.

Randolph Carter
