Feature and Follow 6

Increase Blog Followers 

  The Feature & Follow is hosted by TWO hosts, Parajunkee of Parajunkee’s View and Alison of Alison Can Read.  



How do you handle a book you don’t like? Do you DNF or do you power through?

 

Well I look at the first chapter (or 20 pages if the first chapter is longer) as my chance sampler, so I might quit then but I do not consider that a DNF.  I simply look as that as never having read.  I will not review, rate, etc as I didn't give it  real chance.  Yet I do not do this very often.

Otherwise, once I have started I very rarely DNF.  I rarely even quit a series once I get going.  I have to finish it all. 


*I prefer follows via whatever method they actually read and use.   I want to see you come back. :)

 So I have some giveaway going on.  Here are the entries for the main two I am running.  For details, and other giveaways, check out the links in the to right or click the links above each giveaway!

    Not bad! I've had a few DNF's usually where I quite about near the halfway...? Not sure really. It all depends, I know I usually give it my all to finish one but there have been a few that I just couldn't forge through.

    Here's my Follow Friday

    Have a GREAT weekend!

    I always follow through on books in case the book gets better. I'm a bloglovin follower.

    Usually I will give a book 50-100 pages before I DNF if I'm not enjoying it. I used to power through but I no longer have the time and it turned reading into a chore. There are too many books on my tbr pile for me to feel guilty and I'm picky about what I read, so only have 1 DNF so far!

      I so rarely DNF. I am picky about what I read before I do for that very reason though. Like you, my TBR pile is high. Instead of DNFing i am just getting pickier about what gets added in the first place.

    I hate to not finish a book. It does happen occasionally though. I always give it my best effort before giving up.
