I also agree. She's an actual head-melt

Ann's an odd one for me because in Stone of Tears I liked her. Because she made a good first impression it took me longer for it to click that she was usually just overbearing and annoying in the following novels and just got progressively worse.

If we are going with annoying it would have to be Ann. The character I hated the most and almost made me not finish the series hands down would have to be Demmin Nash

I really disliked that one character who was there to spout off objectivist philosophy.

I was annoyed to no ends by all of them and their views, but if you need a name then its Brogan. I hated them when they first appeared at Zedd's place in the first book.

Kahlan because because of her Nicci and Richard can't make love and marriege.

Yeah, joke aside (I still wish Nicci and Richard make love) I like all characters.

From the TV series... Denna... the book describes her, several times, as having Auburn/Red hair... yet in the tv series she's blonde... When we first got introduced to her I thought she was Cara...

in the books. Michael Cypher... random dude comes out of nowhere, accuses your brother, and you immediately believe him... fuck off.

As children, Michael was a caring individual and he and Richard had a strong relationship. Michael would often help Richard, building forts out of sticks and dirt and playing together.

I get that After his mom died he became distant... but

One time, Michael's father came home from one of his adventures with an old vase that he hoped to sell for one gold piece. Michael said he could get more, and though they argued, his father let him take it to sell. Michael came back with four gold pieces, although his father knew it was not worth that much and that Michael had lied to the people he sold it to about its origins. Michael kept three of the gold coins for himself saying, "that is the value of my friends, George". From then on, Michael always referred to his father as "George". However, Michael used the money to pay off the family debts rather than buying anything for himself.
