Because I'm reading a book and I don't think I like it.

These are the sort of things that bring me to a screeching halt on a Saturday night. I'm reading a book and I don't think I really like it. I don't know if it is the translation, the subject, the style or just me. I hate to stop reading something once I've started. I've only quite a handful of books. So I'm conflicted on whether I devote more time to trying to like it, or if I give up and find something else to read that I'll enjoy more. So the only good thing to do was to make a poll.

I used to be very adamant about finishing books whether I liked them or not. Then one day I had an epiphany. There are too many books to be read, and life is too short to waste on those that are unpleasant. So far this year, I've abandoned four books and quite gleefully, too.

I do, however, force myself to finish most professional literature.
