I liked him, as far as villains go, but I think I am just always more fond of the good guy? I think my favorite villain ever is President Snow in The Hunger Games... just because... well, I think he was quite complex in the sense that he thought being a villain was almost necessary? I was intrigued by his thought process. Hope you love the next two books, too!

It seems pretty cool, I might read it soon! <br /><br />My favourite villain is definitely Count Olaf. The things he has done genuinely makes me so angry..and I hardly feel emotions towards villains in books.

But I also really enjoyed President Snow, particularly in the movie; Donald Sutherland is brilliant. I'm having a hard time coming up with others.. Maybe The Devil in Supernatural? And Mads Mikkelsen's Le Chiffre in Casino Royale is brilliant...Manis & Makeovershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08032980550976417399noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8964812786330789100.post-72457816175667645392017-02-12T15:59:28.091+01:002017-02-12T15:59:28.091+01:00I'm pleasantly surprised that you've only ...I'm pleasantly surprised that you've only had the chance to read this now but hey, it happens.
