The writing style is just not clicking with me. #dnf at 30% #hailthebail #bookspin pick off the TBR

Karkar I am so glad I am not the only one who did not love this! 1d
ravenlee I‘ve had this on my tbr for years, but I haven‘t enjoyed Leckie‘s short fiction and have been hesitant to try anything else. I think I‘m going to unstack this one. 1d
Ruthiella That‘s fair. If the writing style is not for you, there is no need to torture yourself. 1d
TheAromaofBooks At least it's off the list!! 11h

#doublespin is a #dnf. @TheAromaofBooks

Although I wanted to know what happened, I didn't like Eleanor's character, and wasn't keen on picking the book back up. I ended up reading the Wikipedia entry!

CaroPi I hear so much about this book but after 20 pages I just lost the interest ... 2w

Well, this is my first #DNF of 2025! Pretty far into the year—& rarer still for me to set aside an #audiobook! But this memoir, though it started out with a great hook—the author disappeared from his MI college town, leaving behind his bag & last seen on the iced over lake soon turns into something less expected. I didn‘t want to continue on once I learned the selfish nature of his disappearance & the apparent undiagnosed mental health struggles.

Ever bailed on a book you were enjoying, just because a main character reminded you of someone you really don‘t like and thinking of them made it impossible to enjoy the story?That‘s pretty much what happened here. I felt compelled to continue because it was for a book club. Thankfully @ElizaMarie and @bookandbedandtea were understanding of my need to #dnf #bookclubgonepostal #bcgp

This is a bail because of content, not writing quality. It contains Broms beautiful writing and art. It is also a very interesting retelling of Peter Pan. Just the violence against children is very extreme and just not something I enjoy reading. #hailthebail #dnf

I enjoyed the first of this series but I couldn‘t get onto this one. It was more assault heavy than I remembered the first one being. I highly doubt that I will try to finish this at a later date. #DNF #NotForMe

This premise is just too absurd and I‘m not feeling it. #dnf #hailthebail

#DNF #July ##BookSpin

I gotta be true to myself - I can‘t read this. It‘s this 1900s murders that just were boring poisons and doesn‘t get enough into the dynamics to make me care about their stories enough. I don‘t want to read this
