I can't concentrate when....

I can't concentrate when there is a new book out in a series I like and I haven't read it yet. It’s especially bad if the previous book left on a cliffhanger. Something like, "His stooped figure came towards me with a knife in his hand. I always wondered how I would die..." What is that?! If the ending is like that, I throw the book down and stomp around my room huffing and puffing. Over the next couple months my foot bounces up and down in anticipation whenever I think about the series. Sometimes I get so angry that I say I hate the author for writing such and ending, but I really don’t. How can I hate them when they write such fantastic books? Finally the book is out and I beg my mom to take me to the library. She doesn't object because she usually reads the same books I do and is as anxious as I am. After we get to the library I practically jump over the librarian’s desk to get to the reserved book. I walk out of the library my nose is stuck in the book. “I duck out of the way as he tries to attack me with a murderous look in his eyes…”
