I had this happen to me last week. I figure I'd just read a little while I wait for my daughter to finish eating dinner. It was so good I ended up staying up to read the entire thing. It was so good all the way through until I got to the ending, I felt like I'd wasted my time reading it to begin with once I got to the ending.

that is what jean c. grange and dostoyevski always does. I almost thought of not reading the end of karamazov brothers and when I reached the end, I was right..
It's like, they have worked to write the story so hard that they were too tired in the end...

Yes. I have been disappointed so many times by a great storyline that pulled me in expecting something great (or at least really satisfying), only to have it die out with a whimper at the end.
I hope all of your future reading is wonderful from 1st page to last.

I know exactly how you feel!
Steven King - I read the Dark Tower series (seven books altogether) and couldn't WAIT to see how it ended. I get to the final book - Dark Tower VII - and I couldn't believe the ending. I wanted to drive up to Bangor, Maine - find King - and run him off the road!!!
I felt like Ralphie from 'A Christmas Story' when he finally decoded the Ovaltine message.

When you're reading a book,you're reading someone's mind(that's one of the reasons reading'sso fun).Just because it didn't end the way you wanted it to doesn't make it bad.Maybe this will pick up your mood a little next time you come across this issue...

I agree with the woman who commented on the Dark Tower Series. I wonder if these authors realize what a let down their endings are, and why they write it that way.

Yeah.
That pretty much sums up 'The Lovely Bones'
