This week's question feature is The Mile Long Bookshelf
How do you handle a book you don’t like? Do you DNF or do you power through?
My Answer: I used to power through with everything! But since I've been blogging and have so many more books to read and deadlines to reach I have rethought my strategy and I tend now to put them as Did Not Finish.
I give each book 100 pages to grab me, if I am still really struggling by then I will give up (unless the book is only 150 pages in which case I will finish it regardless)
Life is just too short to read books you don't enjoy, especially with so many fantastic ones out there still to read.
Happy Hopping & Blogging. :D

Basically the same answer as I gave! I give it at least 50 pages, depending on how hard of a time I am having. Old GFC follower.

*NEW GFC FOLLOWER* I like your strategy! I tend to try to push through everything and it def puts me behind....I guess I need to learn when to pull the plug ALOT more lol! Great blog BTW!
I don't really DNF books. I always push through! I'm a bloglovin follower.
Thanks all. :D
Seen quite a lot say they push on, which surprised me.
As I say, used to be my strategy but just can't do it anymore, I have to give up if I'm not enjoying it.
Have a good week all.
I hate to not finish a book. It does happen occasionally though. I always give it my best effort before giving up.
New follower!
