I feel personally attacked
Sigh. This week I finally told myself I have to finish at least 3 books that I’ve abandoned at 100 pages before I can start anything new…I hate it!
there are many books in the world
they are not a punishment
they will be there in 6 months if you decide to come back to them
sometimes the book is a great one for you to read when you are 5 years older. or they would have been great if they had crossed your path when you were twelve.
Me and my shelf of Anne McCaffreys that I adored as a teen and give the side eye as an adult. I keep a couple of the hard copies out of sentiment but if I were reading them for the first time now, no.
agreed, Dragonsinger is too important to me to be removed from the shelves at this time, but I wouldn’t give it to a niece
I do agree with this most of the time, and I have DNFed more books this year than probably in my life…I always used to force myself to finish everything, but now I know it’s not worth it if I’m really not enjoying something.
But this year I feel like I’ve been hopping from book to book a lot, not because I don’t like what I’m reading, but I just keep getting excited about another book and being impatient to start it… I also want to finish the books I’m 100 pages into, but keep getting sucked into a new recommendation 
and end up with 10 “currently reading” on my Goodreads haha
(I know nothing about this author, for the record, but there does seem to be a theme)
