A Book Meme

Booking Through Thursday - Desert First. (via Random Musings of the Terminally Bored)

1. Do you cheat and peek ahead at the end of your books? Or do you resolutely read in sequence, as the author intended?

Sometimes I do look a couple pages ahead. Or even read the ending first. This is not because I'm really impatient--if I'm reading ahead, that's a sign that the author did not sufficiently engage my attention, or even worse, made me exasperated. If I read in sequence, all that means is that the writing was interesting enough to guide me through the proper order.


2. And, if you don’t peek, do you ever feel tempted?

Not especially.

You have more willpower than me because I'm always tempted, even when I'm enjoying the author and the story!
