Book Blogger Hop

I’m participating in this week’s Book Blogger Hop!

This week’s question is
“Who’s your all-time favorite book villain?

My answer–

This is a tricky one for me.  I’m not someone that loves to hate the villain, and I actually don’t usually think about the bad guy once I’m finished with a book (or movie, or whatever).

Then there’s the problem that listing the villain could be considered a spoiler for many of the books I read.

With that said, I’m going to leave off here with a vague mention of Mary Russell’s nemesis in The Beekeeper’s Apprentice.   Mysterious clues, misleading attacks, playing with the victims before moving in for the kill!  Actually, I’ll say that Laurie R. King does a great job with her villains in the Mary Russell series– they tend to be nuanced, not just flat out evil.

Here’s what the Book Blogger Hop is:

In the spirit of the Twitter Friday Follow, the Book Blogger Hop is a place just for book bloggers and readers to connect and share our love of the written word! This weekly BOOK PARTY is an awesome opportunity for book bloggers to connect with other book lovers, make new friends, support each other, and generally just share our love of books! It will also give blog readers a chance to find other book blogs to read! So, grab the logo, post about the Hop on your blog, and start HOPPING through the list of blogs that are posted in the Linky list!!
