Top 5 Wednesday or #T5W is a weekly meme created on Goodreads and you can find them here
The Rules and Guidelines regarding the Meme can be found on here
Now then , The Topic for this week is –
Authors You Are Waiting on Another Book From — These are your favorite authors who you want to write another book but haven’t yet. Or they are writing something, but no title or synopsis has been released and it isn’t coming out until 2018. Try to keep this to authors who haven’t announced anything concrete about a new book, not authors that have a highly anticipated release coming out before the end of 2016

This is my Debut for the meme created on Goodreads , the link to whom you can find by clicking on the image above or right about here
The Rules for the Meme are as follows :
1. T5W is open for ANY type of book reviewer (youtube, blogs, instagram, tumblr, etc.)
2. The official hashtag for Top 5 Wednesday is: #T5W, but other alternates is definitely fine.
3. When uploading your video/updating your blog etc, if you can, it would be super helpful if you linked this Goodread’s group. That way potential T5W-ers will be able to find the group easily if they are interested in joining!
4. It is OK to skip a week if you can’t think of any or don’t like the topic. I always get questions about people not knowing what to do because a topic is difficult. Just skip it and join in the following week 🙂
5. Speaking of topics, and while I really don’t have control over this, but really try not to twist the topic to your own liking. I just say this because in the past I’ve seen some topics changed to the poster’s liking only to see that “twisted” topic end up being a topic in the following months. I’m just looking out for you all!
6. Topics for the following month are posted the last Wednesday of the current month.
The Topic for this weeks T5W is – July 27th: Most Unlikable Characters
— NOT VILLAINS! These are protagonists or side characters that are unlikable! (These should lean more towards characters who aren’t intentionally unlikeable. Not villains, or mean girl/guys, etc.)
MY T5W : in no particular order these are my 5 most unlikable characters
Jezal dan Luthar : Jezal Dan Luthat a supposed Protagonist from the First Law Series was a young and Wealthy Nobleman from Union who has optained a high rank and reputation amongst the citizens of Union all thanks to being Wealthy and of Noble heritage . Jezal is a shallow , Naive and Self-centered man and gains instant dislike however as the story of the First law trilogy proceeds his characters develops and in the end garners a lot of pity and sympathy , That Said he remains one of my most hated character who is full of arrogance and selfishness and in the end comes across as nothing other than a mere coward
Felisin Paran : A citizen of Malazan , Felisin was a noble born girl and started as a sweet soul, She was rich , naive , prettier than most and too soft for the world of Malazan book of fallen . Felisin was later jailed by the Empress of Malazan which led her to make some decisions which will take every thing that was good natured of her and made her into a sour and miserable person . Granted the reasons for her change in behaviour were justified but Felisin’s fall from Grace made her one of the most unbearable characters to read with her constant bickering and venomous thoughts towards people who had nothing but her good in their mind . I still have to read the complete series of Malazan books so who knows maybe there’s redemption in store for her.
Anna Watson – There are a lot of contenders in this book to be hated , and i could genuinely say that there’s atleast a couple of characters that i hate more than Anna Watson and yet because i don’t want to go into Spoiler territory i pick Anna , A Beautiful , Successful , Independant girl , who knowingly wrecked the house of a married couple and later instead of any guilt or empathy for the women whose life she ruined the only emotion Anna develops is one of hatred , disgust and Mockery . It just felt horrible to read about such a person and more so because these type of people actually exist in the real world
Ramsay Snow – The Final Selection comes from George R.R. Martin’s fantasy Masterpiece (The only book in this article that I haven’t yet reviewed on the blog). With the brilliant and highly popular series most people are well aware of who and What Ramsay Bolton was starting out as the bastard born son of Roose Bolton the Man was only looking for recognition from the world and most importantly from his father Ramsay was pure evil with his action not being a reaction of any past misgivings but being called a bastard . Ramsay’s Fate is now a well known event for many thanks to the TV show and I must admit I was sad because no matter how good it felt to watch his fate unfold on TV it would have been way more entertaining to have read it in the words of George R R Martin’s elusive 6th book

My Choice This Week:
Ok so sadly this week i’ll bend the rules of Teaser Tuesday for myself a little , I have been busy with work and preparation for my Post Graduation degree and that has resulted in me getting less time to read and finish the book that I am presently reading , add to that the fact that what I am reading right now is a Malazan book of Fallen , which demands your complete and undivided attention and even that is sometimes not enough to prevent you from going back a few pages and re-read a few lines .
All this has culminated in me being very slow with my current reading progress , hence instead of re-teasing Memories of Ice like last week , I am going to turn to an older book that I had read and have enjoyed in the past – Storm Front , Book 1 of The Dresden Files , The review of the book can be found here
My Selected Teaser :
I don’t want to live in a world where the strong rule and the weak cower.
I’d rather make a place where things are a little quieter. Where trolls stay the hell under their bridges and where elves don’t come swooping out to snatch children from their cradles. Where vampires respect the limits, and where the faeries mind their p’s and q’s. My name is Harry Blackstone Copperfield Dresden. Conjure by it at your own risk. When things get strange, when what goes bump in the night flicks on the lights, when no one else can help you, give me a call. I’m in the book.
– page progress : 99.5% , Kindle Edition
Book Detail:
as before mentioned and linked you can find my review on Storm Front and 2 other books of The Dresden Files Series on this blog , Dresden Files is a ongoing series of Book that belongs to the Modern Fantasy , Action and Mystery Genre where Author Jim Butcher has created a magnificent world of Magic which works on the basis of Physics , there are plenty of flaws and the starting few books can be hard to tolerate for some but it is a fun page turner series and one of my personal favourite .
