A Bad Book...

I just finished listening to "Dance of the Dead" by Douglas Preston and Lincoln Child. It was a pretty typical psychological thriller, but its only purpose was to get you ready for the next book. I really dislike that in both books and movies. A book should tell a complete story, even if in a series. Its purpose should not be to simply set you up for the next installment. Needless to say I wasted quite a few hours listening to this book. But I am one of those people who has to finish a book that she has started. It is really a terrible trait to have, especially when I complain to my husband about how terrible a book is.
