real!!! i used to not dnf books either, but dnfing books will change your life! it’s so relieving to dnf a book that literally pains you to read and causes you to be so unhappy when it’s time to read.

I’ve only ever dnf one book and that was wicked. After a year of trying to get through it inbetween other books and still hasn’t got more than a 100 pages through. I realised it was never going to happen
Yes!!!! We love to see it! I ditched the “no DNF” phase back in 2022 and it’s been so freeing!
I REFUSE to let myself go into a reading rut because of a book I don't enjoy! Let that book go!

I DNF books a lot but the guilt of spending money and not finishing them seeps through my brain. My fault for not researching about the book first but I am also the type to say, 'I'll be the judge of that.' But once I passed that guilt, sometimes I just donate them or sell them.
