This was reading Louise Penny's newest book in the Inspector Gamache series, The Grey Wolf.

Heck yeah! I detest that particular ploy!
Actually, today, I was cataloging a few Amazon freebies into Calibre, and I went to fetch a description for one, which had the note that every book in the series ended on a cliffhanger. Um, NOPE! I hit delete, and went and removed it from my Amazon library.
You want my money, you write a good story that has an actual ending, then let me decide if I want to read further of your stories. But try to force it with the cliffhanger ploy, I'm outta there.
I do like the Inspector Gamache series, but I usually get them from my library, and she doesn't do it often, so I'll give Louise Penny a pass if it's a once off. Now that I realize she's got a new one out, I need to go visit Libby, pronto!
