Interesting study!

Being spoiled for a story doesn't reduce your enjoyment of it!

I often read ahead when I'm reading a novel, though it's not as easy on a Kindle!

And heh, I just read the end of a fanfic to see if I wanted to read the whole thing... :D

[misscake]

I do it often, too! And yeah, I hate that it's hard to do on an eReader!

I would love to see a similar study done for video games/movies, etc!

[misscake]

Can you skip ahead in games? Or do you just mean reading games spoilers?

[reservoir]

Yeah, I mean like reading the ending on a page like wikipedia or something.

Lies. I was spoiled for Sirius' death and I definitely did not enjoy that book as much as I could have. Also - still bitter about this. :))

I got spoiled for Dumbledore's death, but thought it was a total hoax until I got to that page!

Hmmmm. I think it depends on the individual. I hate having a story or movie spoilt for me.

[misscake]

You know I put this up specifically for you! LOL

[foldingstar]

Of course I did, although I do not take your dig to heart! ;)

[misscake]

LOL, I wasn't making a dig! It just made me laugh because we've had so many convos about it.

I read ahead all the time. I never used to but now I simply cannot just stay up until I've finished the book! I have to read ahead so I can settle myself and go to sleep!
