Kiss, Marry, Kill: Jane Austen Bad Boys

This is a regular feature on my blog. Here's how it works: you take a book, choose 3 guy characters from the book, and then the other person has to pick one to kiss, one to marry, and one to kill.


You all know how much I like Jane Austen, and of her many talents, one was definitely creating such delightfully despicable...bad boys. So this week, it's 3 men from 3 different Jane Austen novels – guys you wouldn't want to bring home to meet the family.


1.) Willoughby from Sense & Sensibility



2.) Henry Crawford from Mansfield Park



3.) Frank Churchill from Emma


So...who do you kiss, who do you marry, and who do you kill? And as always, if you'd like to join up and do your own, feel free to mention it in the comments or leave a link to your post there :)

  1. Okay, I haven't read Emma, but I don't even care if Frank Churchill is evil and people are going say they want to kill him. If he's portrayed by Ewan McGregor, then I want to both kiss and marry him. Kill the others. Ewan all the way!

  2. I would kiss Willoughby.
    I would marry Frank.
    I would kill Henry.

    Phew! That was fun! I just watched Sense & Sensibility two nights ago. I wanted to strangle Willoughby!

  4. OMGOMGOMG I love this SO HARD. I can't even...

    So, the first time I read Mansfield Park, I was all about the Edmund. The second time I was like WTF?? Now I'm a firm believer that Franny should have accepted Henry. Edmund is so booooring! Henry and Franny would have been good for each other.

    SO... I have to say

    Kiss Willoughby (oh, the passion!)
    Marry Henry
    Kill Frank (he's just insufferable, honestly)

  6. @Casey: It's been quite a while since I've read Mansfield Park, but I think the last time I did I was an Edmund fan. Not positive I'd still react the same if I read it again now, but I'm pretty sure I always disliked Henry LOL. Also yes, Frank Churchill sure is insufferable!

    (And I don't blame you for getting confused with that odd hair Ewan has going on there :D)
