This week's topic is a REWIND - which is great because it allows me to explore topics previously to my joining in on the fun. So I'm choosing to talk about the not so nice characters - because as a reader, I long to hate the bad guys/girls and always root for them to fail.

Cercei Lannister is a lot more layered a character than most people allow. I see many mentions of her as a bitch, and various other terms, but not many people seem to pay attention to how well written her motivations and development were. She is definitely a villain, but a great character too!
Great list! :)

Great list! I love love love that you included "villains" from Anne of Green Gables! One of my all-time faves, I just started rereading it today. I made my list on "Top Ten Books I've Read So Far in 2015." Here's my TTT. Happy reading!
@TarkabarkaHolgy - I agree. Cersei is an amazing character - brilliant, smart, and terrible all at once. It would be much less of a series without her strength of character.
I hated Umbridge so much!
I think I disliked Umbridge more that Voldemort. She was just so freaking loathsome. Cool list! I love the bad guys (I am a Slytherin after all)
Oh, this is a great idea for a topic. I particularly like your inclusion of Josie Pye - I haaaated her when I read Anne.
Nice topic!! One of my favorite villians is Cathy from East of Eden!
