Does anyone else?

Read the last chapter of a book to see what happens?

No, never!

My husband and I are going around and around about this. I like to know the end of a movie or book - then I can enjoy the trip to the end. No worries, concerns or stress. He says absolutely no way!!

What is your opinion?

I don't like to know. It ruins it for me, and I lose my interest. Usually when I read a book, the book needs a LOT to keep my interest. I wouldn't want to ruin it for myself. but hey, whatever rubs your buddha.

Personally, I like the suspense and discovering things the way the writer intended it. Imagine watching "The Sixth Sense" for the first time and already knowing the ending!

However, I do like reading books and watching movies more than once.

A book is crafted to be presented in a certain order. When you take it out of order, you lose a great deal of the enjoyment.

If you do that, why bother reading the rest of the book.....you know exactly what is going to happen

No way. Never. It ruins the whole suspense of the thing.

I like to know if a certain character survives the book. I read one book where the hero dies half way through the book. Sometimes I glance through the end to see who lives & dies. But I don't do that everytime even though it's enticing.

I cant read the last chapter of a book before reading most of it for one simple reason:

I dont understand it!

Gosh guys I am not going to let hubby see this thread - I may know what happens but I don't know how. Once again he was right (only he won't know) I am in a minority .

nope- i do however flash to the last page and read the last word or two...dunoo why though...or i'd flash a few chapters on to see if there are any other characters introduced etc, but i'd only actually read the book in order!
