It took me a REALLY long time to work up the courage to DNF books. I still don't do it often, but it feels nice to just say "I don't like this. It's not worth my time."

When I buy a book and don’t like it, the DNF shame gets combined with buyers remorse. But now I DNF books all the time because I borrow them from the library. Life’s too short to read bad books. Put it back and borrow a new one.
