title: Why await not waiting?
body: <p>I was confronted with unexpected and strange behavior when working with async/await methods. Execution is breaking after calling await. There is no exceptions or async continue, just break and nothing. Here is code:</p>
  
  <pre><code>public async Task&lt;IEnumerable&lt;MailChimpUser&gt;&gt; GetAllMembersAsync(string listName)
   {
    try
    {
     //Breaks here 
     var list = await GetListByName(listName);
  
     //Nevertheless, if extract method code
     //var lists = await _apiManager.Lists.GetAllAsync().ConfigureAwait(false);
     //list = lists.FirstOrDefault(l =&gt; l.Name == name);
     //the execution will continueя
  
     var members = await _apiManager.Members.GetAllAsync(list.Id).ConfigureAwait(false);
  
     var result = members.Select(m =&gt; new MailChimpUser()
     {
        ...
     } );
     //the same behavior here, after the return it does not return to the method that awaiting it.
     return result;
    }
    catch (Exception ex)
    {
     var logger = LogManager.GetCurrentClassLogger();
  
      logger.Error(ex, ex.Message, new object[] { });
      throw ex;
    }   
   }
  
   private async Task&lt;MailChimp.Net.Models.List&gt; GetListByName(string name)
   {
      try
      {
          var lists = await _apiManager.Lists.GetAllAsync().ConfigureAwait(false);
          var list = lists.FirstOrDefault(l =&gt; l.Name == name);
  
          if (list == null)
              throw new Exception(String.Format("MailChimp: List \"{0}\" not found", name));
          return list;
      }
      catch (Exception ex)
      {
          var logger = LogManager.GetCurrentClassLogger();
  
          logger.Error(ex, ex.Message, new object[] { });
          throw ex;
      }
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Can you tell me what I'm doing wrong and how can I fix it?</p>
