TOP TEN TUESDAY

This week’s TOP TEN TUESDAY is “Top ten books I’d never want to live in, or top ten characters I’d never want to trade place with” And as probably everyone, I wouldn’t like to live in any dystopian world. However, I have chosen 9 different worlds, which aren’t all dystopian. In addition to that, I’ve chosen one character, which I will post at the end.




9. Pretty Little Liars – Sara Shepard; I wouldn’t want to live in Rosewood. There, you just have to be somehow related to any of the main characters to end up as collateral damage.




     8. A Game of Thrones – George RR Martin; Is my personal belief that no matter what you are, were you live or what role you will have on this novel; you will be always be in extreme danger.





7. The Vampire Diaries – LJ Smith; A similar thing happens with this book. Somehow, Fell’s Church is always on the spotlight of different evil creatures. Therefore, I am pretty sure I will not be safe for a long period of time living there.


6. Divergent – Veronica Roth; I don’t believe anyone is suitable in just one of their factions. In my belief a person is a mixed of all of them. And I personally think I wouldn’t suite in any, not completely anyway. And everyone knows how difficult this fact will made my life.




5. The Iron King – Julie Kagawa; (the fey world) Fey are extremely creepy and strange. Also, I think I will felt lost in this world, unable to know how to act or what to do.





4. The Hunger Games – Suzanne Collins; what could I say about this world? An extremely controlled world in which you can be chosen to fight to death in a TV reality show doesn’t sound really well.





3. The Immortal Rules – Julie Kagawa; Even worse than a dystopian world is one in which the rulers are vampires. And if that wasn’t enough, you must pay for your protection, food and roof with your blood. Moreover, escape isn’t a choice because the outside world is even more dangerous.




2. Delirium – Lauren Oliver; in my opinion this is one of the worst dystopian books I’ve ever read. That’s because I think is an extremely cruel idea. Humans without feelings can’t be considered really humans. The world becomes a cold tedious and easier to control one.




1. Angelfall – Susan Ee; the world has ended, and mainly I will have two options run and try to hide for as long as I can. Or I could become a slave of the creatures, which have destroyed the world. And I don’t really know which one is the worst.





And last but not least, the character I wouldn’t like to be, which could be surprising for some people, is Harry from the Harry Potter series by JK Rowling. I wouldn’t like to be Harry because since he was a baby he has been forced to be a hero. No one had never given him an opportunity to chose whether he wanted to fight Voldemort, or not; or even if he really wanted to be a wizard. And I personally believe on having my own choices in life.
