Whew! All done but 2 so far. One of my original list is a DNF. I can't find the ebook anymore and decided that the fact I was so reluctant to keep reading it was a sign.
Been there too, LK?
Pick me, pick me! It happens all the time to me :(
I used to finish every book I started through some sense of obligation. Some years ago I asked myself why I was torturing myself that way and stopped. Now I just have to figure out sooner when to let go of a book that just isn't doing it for me.
