I avoided the internet in it's entirety from the release date up until
I got to read it (I bought my housemate a copy for his birthday, on
the condition that I got to read it as soon as he was done). I knew it
was bound to come up somewhere... and while I was in the middle of
reading it, our friend who is notorious for giving away endings etc.
dropped round. The first I heard of this was my housemate chucking a
sandwich into my room and going "just stay there, I'll try and keep
her away from you..."

But I got through it spoiler free. I may even buy my own copy some
day. ^_^

And if you peek, you're not doing this whole 'reading' thing right...

Ceef.
