Guys, I'm sorry, but I can't do it.
I'm not the kind of girl to just give up on a book very easily (don't ask my cousin. He'd say I am because I just couldn't get into Eragon, one of his all-time favorites). But I have to give this one up. I'm making absolutely no progress on it, and even when I do, I don't absorb much of what it is saying. Fahrenheit 451 is a book that I had heard a bit about before deciding to read it, and I figured it was an older "classic" that I should pick up and read. I started into it and it was pretty interesting. But by the time I got about halfway through, I lost all motivation. It became harder and harder for me to read. This book is one that is just constantly shoving information in my face. Sometimes the information doesn't make sense, sometimes it is just given to me so fast and in the midst of so much other information, that I don't absorb any of it. It has an interesting storyline, but there's no breaks to help me process what is happening and what it means for the story. Like I said, I hate just not reading it anymore, but I have so many books on my TBR list, and there's one in particular I just got from the library that I am so ready to read! I know that I either need to stop working on Fahrenheit 451 and just go for the new book, or I'll try reading both at the same time, and never end up reading 451. (plus, it's due back to the library, and I don't see the point in renewing it if I don't want to read it anyway.) So question for you: have you ever just stopped reading a book? Not because you didn't have time, but because you just no longer wanted to read it? You had no interest anymore? If so, what book?
