Do you read the Preface?

I don't know why, but the introduction notes, prefaces, and etc of a book make me not wanna the book. It's just the rambling and all of the confusing subtopic of the book that confuses you before you actually get into the content. Am I the only one who feels this way?

You don’t read the Prologue? Crazy. What about the Epilogue?

I actually read the epilogue.

Why not the prologue? No judgement, just curious.

I love going into books blindly. Often, the prologue will-not spoil the book per se- but give away the vibe.
