Exasperation!

Ever read a book that is so captivating but have a disappointing ending? You just feel like burning it at the end of your reading and really cursing the author right? I was tenaciously plouging through a book yesterday, trying to reach the ending so that I can piece everything together (is one of those conspiracy theory, cover-ups kind of thriller). And....the ENDING....just left me with more questions than answers. The feeling is worse than reading a book with a lousy ending. When I was reading the acknowledgement thereafter (trying to find some clues to a possible ending), I was kind of upset to realise that the ending was suggested by the author's 24-year old son. I am now hesistant to start another one by him though I enjoyed the author's wits and humor. Torn!
