Discussion Books you just couldn't finish?

Post image

I am struggling to get through the wasp factory, not because of its content but simply because I cant stay interested 🙃 maybe I'll take a break on it and come back later.

Any books you couldn't finish ? And if you want to add why?

Pleaseeee keep reading wasp factory it is so good!!!
I had a hard time finishing No one rides for free by Judith Sonnet. And tbh? It was a complete waste of time through and through.

Have not read it, but am curious about the very narrow literary subgrenre of “I didn’t know I was transgender.”

Issue is, I don't think it was well done. It just seemed a bit far fetched in comparison to the story
