Cliffhangers...

1/20/2015

What do you guys think of cliffhangers in a book? I just finished reading a book I really enjoyed (yay for fun superhero novels), but it ended on a cliffhanger. And the sequel isn't due out until June. Humph.


Personally, cliffhangers annoy me. Especially if the sequel isn't coming out any time soon. For me, I read so many books that by the time the next book comes out, I've essentially forgotten the cliffhanger and am left confused when I start the new book. 


Or, even worse, I spend the intervening months with a vague worried sense of unease about what's going to happen to those characters. 


Still, it is an effective way to bring readers back in a series. 


So, what do you think? Do they piss you off or do they leave you panting for more?

Maybe authors could incentivize pre orders by offering first chapter early as a bonus
