When I was younger I would most definitely read the last couple pages. Now, I do not. I like to see where it goes. Then when I read the book again, I like to try to fit everything in.

I read the last line of almost every book I've ever read. Crucify me. But I just can't help it; reading the last line has prepped me for lots of heartbreak.

Sometimes It's not that bad, actually. If you do it before reading the book, you won't even get it as you don't really know what the book is about. Summaries often give only the beginning of the book so even if you take a look at the end, you most likely won't reveal too much.

My stepson is always joking that the Read-Ahead police are going to come and cart me away someday. I try not to turn to the back pages, but it's hard to resist.

I always read the last sentence of a book. Mostly if it's like a Stephen King novel or one of that sort. Knowing the last sentence kind of makes it fun, but I don't read any more of the ending than that. I spend the rest of the book trying to figure out how that last bit connects to the story as a whole.

I try so so so hard not to! A lot of the books a read are thrillers so I find myself wanting to read the very last line of the chapters that are super intense to see how the action turns out. I feel guilty afterwards though, like I'm cheating the author out of surprising me

I tend to sneak a peek at the last paragraph of pretty much every boon I read. It doesn't really help me understand what is going to happen at the end of the book, so I don't feel like it ruins the book. I just enjoy the feeling of realizing, "Oh, that's how that happened" once I have reached the end of the book.

I never do it. If I'm reading a book, why would I spoil it by reading the end? What would be the reason to read the rest of the book then?

Yes. I think i did once on a book and i regretted doing it. It's like MAJOR SPOILER and I've ended up predicting the entire book. After that, even if i was tempted to sneak at the end, i stop myself.

I do this with most books I read and strangely it doesn't dampen my reading experience one bit. Rather it relieves me of a build up of suspense that I can no longer bear!

I do this more often than I'd like to admit. It's not usually actually reading the end, though. Instead, I look up spoilers online. Sometimes it's because I have to put the book aside for a while (I talk reading-intensive courses so it happens) and sometimes I'm just impatient. I've been trying very hard not to do it recently and I didn't start doing it until high school. I still finish the book no matter what my feelings are on the ending when I do this, and I'm really trying to break myself of the habit because it taints the reading experience for me.

Hello everyone, I'm new in here.

To answer the question, yes, I did. Once or twice. I was reading a detective story by Agatha Christie then as I am a huge fan of detective stories and thrillers, and the plot was so full of suspense that I wasn't able to help myself because I just had to know who was the killer. But although I went on to keep reading the rest of tbe story afterwards, the feeling just wasn't the same. Which is why I never did it again.

If I really like whichever novel I am reading, I never do this since it would ruin all the suspense and fun, especially in crime and detective novels. there is no point doing it in romance novels since apparently, the end is just the couple coming together after solving all their problems. I sometimes do it in books which I do not find interesting, and if I find the climax not up to my expectations, I just stop reading and go get myself another novel.

I try as much as possible not to do this so as not to spoil it for me. There was this book I really liked, it seemed too long to the end and I had a picture on my head of how I wanted the story to end, so I took a sneak peak and it turned out as I expected, made me read the book faster with excitement, don't know why though.
