As I was reviewing my Book Tracker on Goodreads, I noticed that I’ve DNF’d at least 10 books. Typically, I try to push through and finish every book I start, even if it means rushing through it, even if it means rushing through it and losing the joy of reading, which defeats the purpose of reading for pleasure in the first place!. However, there are occasions when certain books simply don’t hold my interest, no matter how hard I try to push through to the end.
I’m curious, what are the books you’ve DNF’d and what were your reasons for doing so? Do you ever give them another chance later on?

My most recent DNF was A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder by Holly Black, because the writing style just wasn’t for me and I was having a really hard time getting through it. I was honestly surprised about it too, because I’d heard some good things and I don’t DNF very many books… I don’t think I would go back to it, but maybe a few years down the line I might change my mind?
