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

[threeplusfire]

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.

One of the major things that's been turning me off reading a book recently is rabid, rabid Marysue/Garysue-ism in the main character(s). :(

I feel no guilt stopping reading a book, particularly when it's lazy/bad writing.
