About Amy Hello, I'm Amy, an aspiring motorsports writer and former blogger. If you dig deeper enough, you find some very old blog posts, as this started as a book blog, but that's really where I got my start in writing: book reviews, hot book topics and as well as the odd personal essay. After leaving university, I left the book blog behind, but continued writing and going in the world of social media, writing film reviews and promoting queer cinema, but after a tragic event in my personal life, I quickly discovered Motorsports. What started as a love for Formula 1, while finally watching the Formula 1 film, Rush, and discovering Formula 1 TikTok, this love soon expanded to everything Formula E, IndyCar, Formula 2, Formula 3, as well as F1 Academy. I soon found the itch to write come back, with the fast-moving news of motorsport, to the drama, the competition, and the journey of drivers trying to find a race seat. I found that it was the people and storie...
It's Wednesday so that means that it’s Top 5 Wednesday. This week’s topic is the top 5 characters I wish I could drown. To find more about
Top 5 Wednesday’s you can join the GoodReads group and discover the creator of the group Lainey. So let’s get started…
I do like Tris as a character, it’s just that at some points she can be really annoying, so it’s not that I want to drown her just knock some sense into her. This especially comes in Allegiant when she still tries to save Caleb even though he has been plotting against her the entire series. I get that her ties to her family are strong but some people just aren’t worth saving, in fact, I would probably just drown Caleb to protect Tris.
I studied
Frankenstein for my AS course and I did enjoy the book but Frankenstein is just
not a likeable character. To me, you are also meant to like the protagonist but I
just don’t. He creates the creature and neglects him and wonders why he is evil.
Like father like son…
While writing
this post, Umbridge can be seen on many of these posts and, mine is not an
exception. I am currently writing this wearing a Harry Potter shirt showing my
love for the series. She is evil; making Harry write in his own blood as well as
having a weird obsession with cats. She also makes everyone’s life at Hogwarts torture.
There’s nothing to like about her.
As a villain
we are expected to dislike them but Valentine just takes a villain to a whole new
level. (Spoilers ahead, if you have not read the City of Glass, stop reading now!)
Valentine pretends that Clary and Jace are siblings and in the City of Glass it is
revealed that he experiments on both his son and daughter and I believe he also
kills a woman while doing so. It is fair to say Valentine has cemented on this
list.
Sutter Keely
to me is automatically a dislikeable character, he is a senior in high
school who has a non-caring attitude and is a borderline alcoholic at 18. It is
when he finds Amie that you will think he will change but he just doesn’t. He
is the same for the entire novel and I would happily slap him to knock some
sense into him because we do not need people like him in this world.
Number 5- Tris
from Divergent
