Ten Stupid Mistakes Villains Make:
Kate
dissects and lists the mindless mistakes that Pemberly Brown’s secret societies
make while attempting to sneak around the campus
Kate Lowry here from THE LIES THAT BIND. Today, I want to
share with you my top ten list of stupid mistakes villains make.
10. Leave doors/windows/cars/lockers OPEN. Villains are busy
people. Or perhaps they were raised in a barn. Either way, if the door’s open,
I’m going in. Don’t mind if I do…
9. Loud talkers. Villains missed the day of preschool when
the teachers reviewed inside voices. Plus, voices carry in those tunnels. I
don’t even have to put my ear to the hatch!
8. Lose their cool around girls. I’m not proud of it, but
sometimes a girl’s gotta do what a girl’s gotta do and sometimes that means
showing a little skin. I’ve gotten entire secret maps of Pemberly Brown by
merely unbuttoning one button.
7. Carry baggage. Student files are fascinating. And often
thick. My best friend works in the office. What do you expect?
6. Hang with the wrong crowd. Be careful who you trust, bad
guys. Who knows, they might even be worse than you.
5. Perform not-so-secret ceremonies in not-so-private
places. The clock tower again? Really? How have you not seen me crouched behind
these low shrubs?
4. Have no respect for property, even if it is a dilapidated
building of Brown. Lists of names on walls? Check.
3. Twirling moustaches. Whenever I have a doubt over who the
real bad guy is, I can usually identify them by their telltale mustache. Thanks
Headmaster Sinclair!
2. Forming secret societies. Um, guys, hate to break it to
you, but NOTHING stays secret at Pemberly Brown. At least not while I'm around.
1. Messing with my friends. I might not be the most popular
girl in school and I'm definitely not the toughest (Bethany, I'm looking at
you), but you mess with my friends and I will throw down. Justice is tough to
find at Pemberly Brown, but I won't rest until I find it.
I want to say Thanks to these incredible authors for sharing this great guest post and for allowing Ali's Bookshelf to be part of their great blog tour!
