I have questions

I’ve been reading a book for a while now. Unfortunately this one doesn’t have a summary on the back cover. I don’t want it anyways and I don’t know why I wrote the ‘unfortunately’ part. I have to tell you it has been one hell of a storyline so far and I haven’t even read the highlight of the book. The ‘not knowing’ has been eating me alive for the last few chapters and the plot is moving very slow. I feel like the author of the book and myself seem to have two different point of views. The only thing I want to avoid is getting disappointed while reading the end. I have expectations.

Don’t think that I want to find out how the story ends but the process towards the ending is occupying my mind with quite a long list of questions. I know I’ll eventually hear the answers but I’m worrying about how amazing the bare beginning was. What if the highlight of the book was the beginning? And now every next chapter I read will disappoint me more and more, the book will be considered boring and predictable just because the beginning had already been forgotten. I don’t want that. I like the part of answering questions one by one. I like when the feeling of excitement keeps me up at night wanting me to continue reading.

But the only thing I got from the last few pages was - another set of questions and not one answered.
I feel like the author has distanced me from himself, all the readers I guess. The beginning was so good and he is going to let the story end this way. As bad it is to me, the worse it is to him and he knows it. So, how can this well-known writer let a book with a bad end slip away?

Maybe on purpose. To remind us that not everything that stumbles upon us astonishingly at the beginning, will last forever and that it all depends of the author. I as the reader, can’t change an already written book. But if the situation was real, I could influence the flow of the action that has been happening.  Maybe one day, I’ll become an author of a book. Trust me, mine will leave you speechless at the beginning but you’ll have a lot to say about it at the end.
Who knows?
With love, MO.
