I picked "both work for me", but I'd like to add a small proviso. Both work for me IF they're done well.
We've all read stories where we can easily predict what's going to happen, and it's written in such a way it bores you to tears. Whereas there are others, when you do know what's going to happen that still keep you hooked.
Same goes for stories where you don't know. If you don't know, and then the ending given is completely implausible, albeit surprising, I'm not buying (and I'm usually rather perturbed). Well done surprises, though, like Yvonne's stories, are always winners with me.
But the best of all...is when it's ironic and hilarious. If you can make me laugh, I will never forget you
