Q: How do you handle a book you don’t like? Do you DNF or do you power through?
I usually DNF, especially if I have backup books. Usually, I take out multiple books when I go to the library so that I always have a backup.
On the other hand, I am forced to finish a book for school. I always have to force myself to read a book in that case. Reading is never fun when you're forced to read a book you abhor!!
Agreed! Good answer.

Backup books? You mean that bookshelf of unread books I have in the other room. *faints* There's always more books to be read and never enough time to read them, so DNFing makes a lot of sense.

I DNF, too, if it's from the library, but if I actually bought the book, I try to make myself finish it in case something in it ends up making it worth the money!
ReplyDeleteLol I wish I could DNF that easily. The guilt wont let me do it!

Great answer! I completely agree with you, however, I read at least 100 pages allowing enough time for something to occur and capture my attention before I DNF a book. I do hate to DNF them though :(

I try not to DNF, but sometimes I do if I really don't like the read.

I don't like being forced to read books, most definitely. For some reason, I definitely power through books. I'm an old GFC follower! :)

Hi Morgan .. I'm like you .. it doesn't get finished. On the other hand if I'm studying something - then I need to sit at a table with the book open and pen on paper nearby ..
