I used to feel bad about putting a book once I’d started reading it, but now it doesn’t bother me. I might feel a little bad if it’s something one of my friends enjoyed, but if i really don’t like a book, I refuse to force myself to read it. To me that’s just not what reading is about. This new policy though has resulted in an ever growing list of unfinished books some of which I did enjoy and do intend to go back to some day.
Anyone else have opinions about this? Do you feel compelled to finish a book once you’ve started?
