#WritersCoffeeClub 10/3: "How do you feel about spoilers?"
I'm actually fine with them in most cases. Of course, if we are talking about, say, a mystery, guessing along with the characters is part of the fun and it is nice to be able to do so, but knowing beforehand what happens does not necessarily ruin a good book (otherwise, reading any sort of classic would be futile). If a surprising twist or reveal is the *only* thing a book has going for it, it is probably not that exciting anyway.
