Spoiler for like, any book existing.

I think mine has to be the villain in Mirror Man. Idk, he wasn’t intimidating, he wasn’t interesting. He was meh.

Also the villains from The Chain. Dear God they weren’t sympathetic in the slightest. The book tries to act like they were atleast pitiful but FROM THEIR INCEPTION, they were just evil assholes who enjoyed causing pain. The book itself wasn’t all that great anyways.

      Protagonist=/=good guy, just the main character who acts as the lens through which we see the story.

          Yes, he is the lense, everything we see is through his perspective. And in the end, we learn his take away from all these events.
