Q. How do you handle a book you don’t like? Do you DNF or do you power through?
A. I t really depends on my mood. Sometimes I will leave a book sitting for weeks or longer and then come back to it. It also depends on if I'm familiar with the author or not.
Happy Friday and Have a Great Weekend!!
For me, it depends on the characters. New follower, check out my FF at www.myviewpointonbooks.blogspot.com :)

ReplyDeleteFor me, I just don't have time to power through a book I don't like. There's way too many books on my TBR to waste time with a book I'm not enjoying even a little bit.

Yeah, sometime it helps to go back to a book. I ditch a book as a last resort. New follower :)

When I leave a book to sit, it usually does help me finish it. Although, sometimes me and a book are just not compatible and it gets the boot. I try not to do too many DNFs, but it's like me and BFs...if we don't connect within the first couple of minutes, it's usually not worth the effort.

I do tend to notice that if I am a fan of the author the book does tend to get a little more struggle and leeway! :) I try my hardest not to DNF, but sometimes it's just a matter of not wasting my time. New bloglovin and GFC follower.

I know that feeling :/ I always try to finish a book, but if it just gets to the point where I know I won't read it, then I give up.
ReplyDeleteHappy Friday!

Usually I will give it 50-100 pages but it has to be fast-paced to keep my interest. I will be more lenient towards authors I have read before though.

I always try not to DNF a book. I'm a bloglovin follower. :b
ReplyDeleteI sometimes set aside too, and that often works. Rarely I have to DNF but not very much.

I hate to give up on a book but once in a great while, it does happen.
