Top 5 Wednesday

Top 5 Wednesday is a feature created by Lainey from the youtube channel gingerreadslainey.


This week’s topic is: Series You Want to Start This Year


I had about a billion series to choose from, but I was able to narrow it down, just barely (if this included series I wanted to continue it would have been crazy).


So, here it is:


Honorable Mentions





Mistborn by Brandon Sanderson - everyone raves about Brandon Sanderson and I want to get into more high fantasy.


The Seven Realms by Cinda Williams Chima - another high fantasy, and I read the beginning of the first book and it sounds like a great one!


The Winner’s Curse by Marie Rutkoski - romance and dystopia. Sounds like everything I always read, but it sounds great!



Numer 5:



The Raven Boys by Maggie Stiefvater - this series is intriguing. I have no idea what it is about and I would like to go into it blind.



Number 4:



The Girl of Fire and Thorns by Rae Carson - High fantasy, strong female lead. What more do I need?


Number 3:





Falling Kingdoms by Morgan Rhodes  - I heard this is like Game of Thrones YA. A lot of people rave about it, and it seems to have multiple POVs and ships, which I’m always up for!


Number 2:



The Bone Season by Samantha Shannon - This one is about people with multiple super powers and it crosses the line between fantasy and sci-fi!


Number 1:





Daughter of Smoke and Bone by Laini Taylor - This series needs to happen! I think it’s about angels and demons, the main character sounds great, and the reviews are raving!


There you go! What are your top 5 series to start this year? Any match mine? Comment your favorites or reblog if this series are in your list!


Also, if anyone has read any of these: which one should I definitely get started sooner?

Top 5 Wednesday #4 ANTI-HEROES

Top 5 Wednesday is a feature created by Lainey from the youtube channel  gingerreadslainey . This week’s topic is:  Favorite Anti-Heroes From TV Trope :  an antihero is a protagonist who has the opposite of most of the traditional attributes of a hero. (S)he may be bewildered, ineffectual, deluded, or merely apathetic. More often an antihero is just an amoral misfit. Misfit, not always doing things in the “proper” way and not usually having the conventional look of a hero were the characteristics I used to comprise my list. Number 5 Batman (from Dark Knight Universe) by Frank Miller Batman is a hero, right? Well, he fights crime in Gothan city, but his methods aren’t always ideal. He takes the law into his own hands, being both judge and executioner; he kills, he’s anarchic, etc. There are some controversy on whether he is really an antihero, but Frank Miller says he is, soooo Number 4 Mr. Rochester from Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte Unlike Michael Fassbender, Ro...
