I think, like you, I realized my time to read is precious and dang it, I want to read something that engages me. I always get a tinge of "But, stick with it, man" when I abandon a book, as if I might miss what everyone else is seeing as great, just a few pages down the story road. I still abandon it, though, and hope I find the next book more to my liking.<br />KevinDogtraxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16079631702744063837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8267688557993866446.post-31277591454413724352015-03-20T21:12:04.530-07:002015-03-20T21:12:04.530-07:00I have been there many times.

I usually do abandon though when it is keeping me from books that I know I would be enjoying more and I have slowed down so much that I've lost a week of reading. Good luck!Crystalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14662811441487822589noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8267688557993866446.post-619847091868104912015-03-20T20:59:40.227-07:002015-03-20T20:59:40.227-07:00I am supposed to read this for my book club and am...I am supposed to read this for my book club and am having the same problem. I hate to show up with the book unfinished, but I also don't see how I can get it done. Maybe it is a summer read- when we have more time to invest.
