I read The 7 1/2 Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle, and take enjoyed it. Read another book, then started reading Devil and the Dark Water by the same author. I got about 25% through and just decided to drop it for something else. I’m not an avid reader so i never know if I should stay committed or not.

    Life is too short to read books you’re not going to enjoy, OP.

    My biggest enemy is boredom - I have to be engaged to keep reading. Although the last two books I’ve abandoned were for other reasons. One because of a graphic animal-abuse scene that I couldn’t make it through and one that turned into a Christian novel half-way through. None of the reviews mentioned it, but apparently the author found god and released a new, improved printing featuring extra Jesus. Blech.
