Last summer, I downloaded a ton of iBooks samples for the books on my TBR list and used that to help me figure out if I still really wanted to read certain books or not. But like I said, I'm still DNFing lots of books and giving them low ratings. 2016 was a hard year for books, though, but hopefully 2017 will be better and I won't DNF as many.Emmahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17561861156323120664noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4746441555766369349.post-73036795325791371612016-12-26T13:14:44.115-05:002016-12-26T13:14:44.115-05:00I've started DNFing books this year!

I've DNFed books where I'd still have hundreds of pages to read, and putting myself through them definitely wouldn't have been fun. I haven't really DNFed enough books yet to find anything in common among them that I could avoid in future books, and I'm not sure whether that means that I'm hoping to DNF more books or not.Clarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08014163537005483710noreply@blogger.com
