I much prefer knowing there's a series and that there's more to come. I love finding a new author and then finding out that there's 5 or 6 or 16 or 17 books in the series that I can count on having for the next few weeks. It's just so nice to not always have to learn new characters and situations, but to fall back into a familiar world and see what happens next. Then again.
Before you criticize someone, walk a mile in their shoes. That way when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.
