Follow Friday:  congratulations to the Drying Ink, the featured blog.

Q. Have you ever wanted a villain to win at the end of a story? If so, which one?

I can think of several:  Willoughby in Sense and Sensibility; Henry Crawford in Mansfield Park...those both those characters weren't really villains they were more cads. I also hate to admit it but I found myself cheering for the captor, Ty, in Stolen by Lucy Christopher.  I didn't want him to be punished in the end, even though he was a kidnapper.


Have you ever found yourself cheering for a literary villain?  Do tell...

    I don't think I ever have...unless it's a love triangle and I secretly want the baddie to win over the girls heart, haha! :)

    I can almost be in the same page with you with Henry Crawford. But, I really liked Edmund so I'm glad he and Fanny ended up together. But, I did like Henry a lot.

    Nice choices - I have to adsmit I've got a weakness for a really well executed villain. Well, more 'antagonist' - grey vs grey conflicts are my favourites. :) Thanks for stopping by over at Drying Ink, and I'm following back as well. Have a nice weekend!
