Top 5 Wednesday l March

March 1st - Fictional Jobs You'd Want to Have 
  1. Housewife from a Jane Austen, this one might shock some people but I would be perfectly happy in that setting (yes that means giving up my right to vote and own my own land , my ability to work I am ok with that) 
  2. Charms, Spells and Potions maker, Harry Potter, JK Rowling *yes I know this is totally cliche and will be on everyones list 
  3. Worker in Willy Wonka's Factory, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Road Dahl
  4. Jason Bourne, Robert Ludlum *obviously the training and everything else would have to come with the job but to be an expert in 13 languages, every weapon and any hand to hand combat? just such a badass
I hate these questions so much because I read lots of period fiction (but I don't want to be a knight or a lady or a servant) or I read a lot of mystery crime novels that are placed in the real world so no fictional job. and then the YA that I read which fits this category I don't often love the books or the "jobs" enough to chose.  

March 8th - Favorite Science Fiction & Fantasy Books *BooktubeSFF Awards Crossover Topic!* 
  1. Cress, Marissa Meyer *my only nominated read from 2015 & 2016 Booktube SSF Awards
  2. Every Heart A Doorway, Seanan Mcguire *again this is my only read from the proposed nominations of 2017 Booktube SSF Awards, put forward thus far. 
  3. The Stand, Stephen King *the idea of a global pandemic created by man in a well intentioned or weaponized sense is a topic that I can't get enough of.
  4. The Hunger Games, Suzanne Collins *only the first book not the series
  5. The Lord of the Rings, JRR Tolkien
March 15th- Books You Felt Betrayed By
I am a big mystery, thriller horror reader and I am always impressed by authors that can do this to me, because thats the point of the book so I am NOT including those kinds of novels in this list.

  1. Thom, The Song of the Lioness, Tamora Pierce *it will spoil everything to explain
  2. The Subtle Knife and The Amber Spyglass, Philip Pullman *so much betrayal in my faith in these novels. 
  3. The Series of Unfortunate Events, Lemony Snickett *I felt betrayed by the end of this series, the lack of answers


March 22nd- Favorite Angsty Romances 
Twilight, Stephanie Meyer

I am not doing this questions because I normally don't like these couples or I find they take away from the story...the odd angsty relationship that I have really enjoyed is often a series and by book 3 or 4 I hate the characters relationship because it goes no where more often than not. 

March 29th- Future Classics 


I am hating the topics this month so I am just ending this here with 1 out of the 5 topics answered because I just... I don't care
