How often do you not finish a book?

I can stick with a book as long as the story line can hold my attention. If the story line doesn’t hold my attention though, I can drop a book faster than you can blink. But it’s been rare that I’ve not finished a book. There was one instance, I dropped a book because the story became so bogged down with too many details that I just couldn’t do it.

I don’t like it when I’m unable to finish a book. But you know what? It’s okay to night be able to finish a book. Not every book out there is for you but there is a reader for every book. You may not like that book but there will be someone else that will. That’s why there are so many different books out there.

  1. It’s not too often that I do not finish a book that I have started as most of the time the story keeps me hooked and I keep wanting to continue the book until I have finished.

    I believe there have only ever been two times that I have not finished a book and it was due to the story not keeping me engaged and hooked half way through.

    Personally, I don’t pick up a book to read and never have the intention of finishing it. This is because I feel that reading a book halfway is like a waste of my time. This is why I hardly read any book halfway and dump it.

  3. Thank you for replying, Shortie and Heatman. It it rare that I don’t finish a book all the way through. Like Shortie, the only way that I don’t finish a book is if the story doesn’t keep me engaged enough for me to see it through and that’s only ever happened a couple of times.
