I have to ask since this has been bothering me for a while ...
Why do people do it?
Why do people feel the need to spoil the books for others? I mean, alright, we're all grown adults - or almost-grown adults - so we can deal with it. But kids read these books. Do you people get some kind of perverse pleasure out of ruining the ending for others? You wouldn't take candy from a baby, so why do you do it? Or are you just impatient? People log onto the internet and someone's claiming to have a copy of it. And unfortunately, sometimes it's genuine. Do you just have to be the first to have read it? Or is it something deeper than that? Are you so insecure that you need to show off by spoiling the books? Other people enjoy them; other people are happy to wait for the book to arrive and to have somebody ruin the ending two or three days in advance is just disgusting. Whatever it is - and it doesn't matter if you're doing it to have a laugh at someone's expense, whether you have to be the first to have it or whether you're just looking for bragging rights - whateve it is, you people are just bloody selfish. You clearly have issues. Deal with them somewhere else, thanks.
