But yeah, you're right, I guess it's acceptable to give up earlier.

Unless I'm told to push through. If someone whose tastes are similar to mine or if they are a reader that I respect I will definitely keep trying or try again. But it's still acceptable to give up after one book (or in the most horrid of cases less!!!)Di @ Book Reviews by Dihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03021249735871126514noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-115308231743588235.post-15431815748348771182016-12-19T14:05:36.445+00:002016-12-19T14:05:36.445+00:00Oh no.

I know I have...I have even given up after a single book. I say life's too short to read books you don't enjoy :) 4 is a lot! You tried and you should be real proud of that but sometimes some books aren't meant for us :) It feels better to accept that :)<br /><br /> Actually December kinda sucks for me..two days ago a cyclone hit here and we're having power outages and network problems. I'm most sad about the fact that the cyclone fell so many trees..The community is working to help each other! I'll be glad when 2017 starts!Uma @Books.Bags.Burgershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10112898986107572612noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-115308231743588235.post-28157175317323660532016-12-14T10:56:25.498+00:002016-12-14T10:56:25.498+00:00To be honest I thought the idea of a world that is...To be honest I thought the idea of a world that is a disc on top of 4 elephants, resting on a turtle, travelling through space, quite intriguing. But I don't tend to read many humorous books. Possibly just not my genre.

I don't know why, but I've kinda resisted trying it. Maybe I need to follow my gut and just accept it's not for me. Anyway I totally get it, and trying 4 books- you definitely gave it a go!
