Booking through Thursday - Cheating

This week's question...

Do you cheat and peek at the ends of books? (Come on, be honest.)

My answer...


I can honestly say I don't. The most I'll do is look and see how many more pages until the end, but I don't peek to see how it's going to end. With my romances, I really don't think there's any big surprise we know the hero and heroine will end up together. With my mysteries, the whole fun of it - for me - is figuring out who did it. So, peeking at the end would sort of defeat the purpose. I like being surprised.

    Yeah, it would suck to know the solution to mysteries early...

    In mysteries peeking at the end really would kind of ruin the whole point of the book. I agree with you I like be surprised.

    I never peek at the endings, I agree with you it would spoil the surprises.

    sometimes I look ahead, but don't consider it cheating.

    I peek at most of the books I read - but I do try very hard not to do it with mystery books.

    Me, too. I just don't want to know anything about the ending until I get there!
