Flashback: The DNF list

[melreads]

I ranted before about the whole Did Not Finish concept, because (to sum up) I felt like there was a difference between the books you stopped reading because you hated them, and the ones where you just never came back to, for no particular reason. But this list was made before I ever came up with that idea (which I called Type 1 and Type 2), so I can't even say for sure which type these are! But I definitely did not finish them, that's all I can say. And these are presumably 2021 and earlier, because they came from my 2020-21 journal. (And yeah, I know quite a few of these are books people love. No judgment of your taste is implied!)

Twilight
Three Hearts and Three Lions
Crazy Rich Asians
11/22/63
Gone Baby Gone
The Copper Gauntlet
Revelation Space
A Killer's Mind (the series is Zoe Bentley, I think?)
A Curious Beginning
A Discovery of Witches
Agent to the Stars
A Long Way to a Small Angry Planet (I think I got a long way into this one, too.)
Mr Penumbra's 24-Hour Bookstore
God-Shaped Hole
Murder on the SS Rosa
The House with a Clock in its Walls (despite the fact that it was made into a movie I liked, I think?)
Gideon the Ninth
The Man With One of Those Faces

nonfiction:
Flu (by Gina Kolata) (which I started and stopped multiple times)
Washington's Spies
1776


Oh, and there is a note at the bottom of the page, saying that I didn't count books where I read just a few pages and then never came back to it, I had to at least get through a chapter or two to count as a proper DNF!
