Top 10 Tuesday: Top Ten Most Frustrating Characters EVER

Good afternoon, peeps! I feel very rant-y this week, so I decided to leash it all on my Top Ten Tuesday theme, haha! So, turn on your rant-y vibes, because I’ll complain my heart out! Hahaha

As you may know, this meme is hosted by The Broke and the Bookish =D My theme today is Top Ten Most Frustrating Characters EVER! In no particular order, let’s talk about those people 😉

~I do apologize for all the people that love those characters; this is only my opinion and doesn’t mean that yours is wrong in any way! This post was made with entertainment purposes only and I don’t want to hurt anyone’s feelings~

Mini Reviews: YA books #1

Hello, dearies! We have here another powerful edition of the mini reviews post =D This time, however, the macro theme will be Young Adult books that I have read recently =)

Just remembering that the mini reviews deal is a combination of inspirations from Cait, of The Paper Fury, and from Lindsey, of @thepagemistress, and that I do those with books that were good, but weren’t unforgettable =)

In this post, you’ll find mini reviews for:

• Elizabeth Rudnick – A Frozen Heart
• Emily Rodda – The Key to Rondo (Rondo #1)
• G. K. DeRosa – Wilder Destiny (The Guardian #2)
• John Connolly – The Book of Lost Things
• Kiera Cass – The Siren
• Laini Taylor – Daughter of Smoke and Bone (Daughter of Smoke and Bone #1)
• Shannon Hale – The Unfairest of Them All (Ever After High: Storybook of Legends #2)
