I read The 7 1/2 Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle, and take enjoyed it. Read another book, then started reading Devil and the Dark Water by the same author. I got about 25% through and just decided to drop it for something else. I’m not an avid reader so i never know if I should stay committed or not.

    I don’t typically give up. I mostly read non-fiction, so I always wait to see if there’s something for me past page 200.

    I gave up on “Foucault’s Pendulum”. I started it as a teenager and obviously it was way above my league. I still want to pick it up again at some point in the future.

    I also passed on “Postmodernism, or, the Cultural Logic of Late Capitalism”, because I couldn’t even understand the introduction.
