I gave up on a critically acclaimed/popular fantasy book today. I couldn't even make it through the second chapter. I hated the author's style, which made the reading tedious, and life is too short to waste on tedious books. I'm so disappointed, though. I know a lot of people who loved it, and I liked the author when I met her at a convention a few years ago. I kept wondering what I was missing, why I was in the minority, but I made sure I didn't guilt myself into plowing through a book that I didn't think I'd enjoy even a little.
Almost back to normal
