I definitely see where you are coming from. That's why I try not to read a series until they have all been released so I don't have to wait. :) <br /><br />Thanks for commenting!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04956569786141597154noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8753166758892425771.post-65430389201270429232012-04-11T17:41:44.242-04:002012-04-11T17:41:44.242-04:00Haha, I can see why as an author you'd be much...Haha, I can see why as an author you'd be much more accepting of cliffhangers than a reader would be. You see your characters differently, and you don't have that desperate OMG what's going to happen next, I can't wait that long to find out feeling. As a reader, I do like the internal, chapter cliffhangers, and I have that same feeling of can't quit now, just one more chapter (till the next one does it again). But I do like some closure, at least of the main storyline, at the end of a book. I like the universe to remain open to more story, but I hate that whole "Frodo was alive but taken by the enemy," feeling. Especially when you know the paperback has to come out, then it will be another year. So, overall, not the biggest fan of being left hanging (especially if it's complicated, sometimes can't remember, I read a lot!), but love the way they keep you reading from chapter to chapter!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06432724677442739790noreply@blogger.com
