Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme held by The Broke and the Bookish.
This weeks topic is: Top ten characters everyone loves but I definitely do not.
I have a very strong opinion about a lot of popular characters. I can guarantee there will be a lot of strong words used in the next few sentences to tell you why I do not like these characters.
Jace from The Mortal Instruments: What an asshole. He's cocky, self absorbed and gives absolutely no thought for anyone except himself. He thinks his sad past is more depressing than anyone else's could be, thus his past and making his future right is all that matters. Extremely unattractive in every way.
Clary from The Mortal Instruments: The idiot. I've yet to come across another character that continually makes the stupid and wrong decision in every situation. She absolutely never learns from her mistakes. She's super selfish. And the worst friend in the world. How Simon is still her friend is just beyond me.
Hardin from After: Dirt of the earth. He is the worst character I have ever come across. Absolutely disgusting. He abuses people in every sense of the word. I cannot fathom how readers feel anything positive towards him. If this was real life he would rot in jail for life.
Tessa from After: Judgmental, whiny bitch. I can't even. Honestly, her and Hardin deserve each other. They are both terrible terrible people.
Jason from The Heroes of Olympus series: I don't hate him, he's just useless. He's supposed to be a powerful demigod but spends the whole series getting in the way and getting himself hurt. What is his point?
Zayne from The Dark Elements Series: Here's a case of that's mine. Zayne was fine in the first book. The second book is where it went down hill when he was brought into the mix of being Layla's love interest. I like myself a best friend to love story, except here. The only reason Zayne decided he had feelings for Layla is because she finally was moving on from crushing on him. He turned into a down right douchebag and despicable friend.
Mal from The Grisha Trilogy: Ugh. I mean I call him fuckface, so that should speak volumes. He's another character that let's his immature jealously rule him. Alina is a kick ass lady, but way to leave your best friend worrying about you when she's supposed to be saving the world. You are a shitty friend, Mal who is envious of her strength, when you are so very weak in many ways. I'm sure you can guess how I felt about the end of R&R.
Happy reading!

She is truly Aelin; a fire breathing bitch queen. She's rude, selfish and secretive. I miss Celaena soooo much. I hate you, Aelin.
Maxon from The Selection series: I do not get the attraction here. To be fair I don't like this series or any character in it. But Maxon is not a prince to fall for. He is the cowardly lion. His jealous, immaturity and rash decisions will get his future kingdom destroyed. If you're looking for a Prince Harry than look elsewhere.
Willow Dean from Dumplin': For a book that is supposed to be all about body positivity and a fat girl that is comfortable in her skin I did not get that for the most part. She judges EVERYBODY. Her thoughts and comments are just rude. She fat shames, she shames skinnier girls. Nope, very little positive about Willow Dean.
