Spoiled...

(sigh)...So I ordered this book called The Hunger Games and accidently spoiled it before it was even delivered. +Sad pose over balcony+ Any way to deal with it, because I feel real pissed now.

Think of it this way: It's not about the end, it's not about the last event. It's about the journey. A good book should be fun to read even if the ending is revealed to you. Sure, it might not have the same "Punch" it has when you're reading it and knowing what's going to happen, but I've read many a spoiled book and found myself amazed and intrigued by just how they got there. Not so much with Hunger Games, I saw that one coming a mile off because it was a shitty book, in my eyes, but I've pretty much always refused to let spoilers spoil my entire reading experience.

I know someone who only reads mysteries, and she always reads the endings first.  She says she enjoys them more when she doesn't have to worry about wondering what's going to happen.

Plus, there are more books in the series, right?
