Odd Problem

msluluI'm in a weird place with the novel I'm reading (still chewing my way through Wizard and Glass). I'm right at the dramatic climax. Everything that has been building up is now exploding everywhere. It's exciting and breathtaking.
But I don't want to read it. I'm staring at the book hesitantly, debating picking it up.
This is because I know this isn't going to end pretty. This is not a happy story (or rather story within a story) that is being told. There are no spoilers here, for those who may be working through the series. You know from the first few pages of The Gunslinger that Susan died. But now that I'm here, even with very little memory of the details from my first read, I'm still just not wanting to see it happen.
This is perplexing.
