The Way We Word

Did Not Finish: DNFing Books


Listen Later

Have you ever DNF'd a book? Most of us have. Do you ever feel guilty for not finishing a book you were excited to read? In this episode we cover why we DNF books, things we can do to avoid picking books that will end up in that category, and how reading changes in the different seasons of life. Are you missing really good reads by putting them down too soon? Sarah and Angela tell stories of books they almost dropped and are so glad they didn't. They also talk about how sometimes putting a book aside may be beneficial.

Join the discussion! We want to know what you think. Are there books you quit and are glad you did? Are there books you stuck with and can't imagine not having read? Let us know on the socials or send us an email:
