Summary of Villain's Assistant, by Carley Hibbert

Step into the chaotic life of Faye, Carley Hibbert's villain's assistant, where humor, intrigue, and plot twists abound in a whimsical tale.

Welcome to the quirky world of Villain's Assistant, where no one has their priorities straight and everyone seems to be just a tad too obsessed with the dark side. Our leading lady, a spunky character named Faye, finds herself interning (yes, you heard that right) for a villain. Because, honestly, what could possibly go wrong with that?!

Faye's life takes a turn for the bizarre when she discovers that she has been chosen to assist none other than the notoriously evil Magnus Blackwell. Think of him as a charming James Bond villain who skipped his therapy sessions. Instead of being a mere sidekick, Faye quickly learns that her job involves navigating a web of diabolical schemes, absurd plans, and a whole lot of backstabbing (both literally and figuratively).

As Faye dives headfirst into Magnus' chaotic world, she faces her own internal conflicts about morality, power, and the all-important question: Can you really rock a black cape without looking ridiculous? Spoiler alert-yes, yes, you can, but only if you own the villainous aesthetic like a boss.

Throughout the book, we are treated to a delightful mix of misunderstandings, magical mishaps, and Faye's sarcastic dialogue that makes you chuckle-and occasionally cringe-at her knack for finding trouble (which is never in short supply). She might just be the most relatable assistant a villain could have.

As Faye tries to keep up with her boss' outrageous plotting, she grapples with how much of her own morality she can compromise. Who knew villainy required so much paperwork, right? And let's be honest, villains need love too, but not all crushes turn out to be love stories-there are also betrayals, twists, and epic showdowns that will leave you gasping (or rolling your eyes) in disbelief.

But hold on tight, because as the story unravels, readers are introduced to a secondary cast of characters who are just as delightfully chaotic as Faye's inner thoughts. From bumbling henchmen who can't quite get their act together to rival villains who are way too extra for their own good, every page turn opens up a new avenue of hilarity mixed with intrigue.

By the time you reach the nail-biting conclusion, you'll be wondering what kind of mad scheme Faye will embark on next. Is she a true villain in training, or is there more to her story than just being the perpetually puzzled assistant?

Overall, Carley Hibbert serves us a delightfully chaotic romp through the life of an aspiring villain's assistant with enough plot twists to keep you dizzy and plot holes large enough to drive a villain-mobile through. Dive into this whimsical tale and remember: in the world of villainy, there are no good choices, just interesting ones. Happy reading!
