A fun read! Global Domination for Beginners

Wow - this was a fun, fun read! I'm always delighted when I come across a book told from the point of view of the bad guy. If you happen to know of any I've missed, let me know in the comments :) Since this is the third one I've come across, I've even created a shelf to list them. And yes, I loved the movie Despicable Me for the same reason. Now, where can I get some minions?

"Did you hear about Katie Parkinson? ... She's going out with Christopher... They've been kissing."

"It was like a Semtex explosion in my brain. I did not know whether to cry or run away."

And THAT my friend, is the basis for world domination. Who among us has not had a secret (or not-so-secret) love that was denied because we lacked the bravery to speak up? Who among us has not immediately tried to figure out what to do to make it right? Who among us didn't immediately come up with a plan to conquer the world just to win that cute love back?

What? A lot of hands went down on that last one? I must have been the only one. No wonder I felt a kinship with Robbie. However, unlike Robbie, I gave up my dream and let real life continue. THIS is the story of what just might happen if you don't give up that dream. If you pursue global domination, but really are good at heart. Sometimes, the people that society hates are the true heroes. Just ask Shrek! (ooooo - two animated movie references in one review!)

This book is very well developed and I had a hard time putting it down. The author draws you in and has you quickly rooting for the bad guy. Even the sidekicks in the story are fun and fleshed out. They are quirky and enjoyable.

I will most definitely read more by this author. FULL DISCLOSURE: The author provided me with a review copy of this book. Trust me, if you think a $2.99 (or free in kindle unlimited) discount will change my opinion or review, you don't know me.
