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.

There are a few books I've started and never finished because my attention span is too short, or they were just too hard to get into, or I ran out of time, or found a hobby that I can do while watching movies or TV. Helloooo knitting!
Once grad school is over, maybe I will read for fun again.
I've started a lot of books I've meant to finish that were actually good. Like I said, attention span or something.
Don't feel guilty, by reading for pleasure you are already smarter than me! Just pick up another book.
