Nottingham's Legacy: Aislinn

All of you know by now that I like having amazing leading ladies to go with my leading men, and this particular leading lady is no exception.

Her name is Aislinn, and she is Tarquin and Sorcha's daughter. She's got Tarquin's spunk and idealism and Sorcha's amazing inner strength, which makes her a great foil for Oliver.

And she tells it like it is--which I think is something that quite a few characters this time around need to hear--but she does it with a lot of understanding that feels less like pushing someone in the direction they're supposed to go, and more like gently nudging and letting them come to the conclusion in their own time, if that makes sense. She leads people by doing, not just talking.

Her animal is a deer.

Deer symbolize grace, compassion gentleness, meekness, independence, discernment and subtlety, to name a few on the very long list. Aislinn is in possession of all of those things.

The other thing I love about this girl is that her celebrity model's name also starts with "A".

I first saw this amazingly talented actress in "Hunger Games",

and then in "Everything, Everything" and "Rio 2".

I haven't seen "The Hate U Give", but she's in that one too.


Her name is Amandla Stenburg.

Aislinn's soundtrack is just as eclectic as the rest of the soundtracks in this piece.

And I'm not altogether unhappy about that.
