Top 5 Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Sam@ ThoughtsOnTomes and created by Lainey@GingeReadsLainey. This week’s theme is unlikable characters who aren’t villains.
1. Bella Swan from the Twilight series by Stephanie Meyer
She’s stupid. I don’t think she uses more than two brain cells in that entire series and those two brain cells are used to figure out Edward is a vampire.She’s annoying and helpless and way too obsessed with her boyfriend and with staying young and pretty forever. And then, on top of that we get Kristen Stewart’s awful, open-mouthed portrayal.
2. Rose Hathaway from the Vampire Academy series by Richelle Mead
I have only read the first book and I’ve been told she does get better, but throughout the whole book, she just annoyed me. She was impulsive and never thought anything through and she just embarrassed herself. I did not like her at all. I liked her more in the film though.
You can read my review of Vampire Academy here.
3. Lissa Dragomir from the Vampire Academy series by Richelle Mead
You can probably tell I wasn’t the biggest fan of this book. Again, I’m only basing it on the first book, but she was so whiny and helpless and annoyingly sweet and gentle and good. Except when she was a complete psycho. She annoyed the crap out of me. In fact, I think I like her less than I like Rose. I hated her in the film as well.
4. Tamlin from the Court of Thorns and Roses series by Sarah J. Maas
By the end of book 2, a lot of people kind of hate him. But I never really liked him in the first place. He seemed self-righteous and self-righteous characters bore and annoy me. I just did not care for him that much from the beginning.
5. Tris Prior from the Divergent series by Veronica Roth
I honestly can’t tell you why I disliked her, but I remember I was always annoyed at her while reading the books. I think it annoyed me that she constantly argued with Four and I just found that to be unnecessary drama. I know they were probably both to blame, but she’s the one that annoyed me for some reason.
TRIS! OMG YES. I also have a profound dislike for Clary Fray from The Mortal Instruments series.

I don’t mind Clary.

I don’t like her mainly because she throws herself into harms way without even thinking and only starts fighting lessons in like the fourth book.

Well, to be fair the first three books happen pretty quickly. But yeah, I don’t mind her. She’s not my favourite character or anything, but she doesn’t really annoy me.
