Oh my gosh, I HATE being excited for a book and then being let down because the book isn't as great as I was expecting!!
The weird thing is, whenever I'm super-excited for a book (usually a series finale) I have dream that I finally get the book...and then the book is a massive disappointment.
Or the book only has, like, 10 pages, and I'm left wallowing in my sadness (though I never seem to question why the book only has 10 pages...).
It's a weird dream, and it happens quite a lot.

I used to be strongly against DNFing books...and more often than not, I would enjoy the ending enough to pick up the second book and then love the rest of the series.
However, at some point I decided that there were too many books, and I would have to DNF some.
Also, when I have a stack of books due back at the library, I do a speed read through in which each book has 100 pages to impress me otherwise it doesn't get finished.
But I'm still not great at DNFing. Just the other week, I came very close to DNFing a book...only to discover I was 92% of the way through, so I really did not want to DNF with 50 pages to go.
Of course, those last 50 pages were just as bad as the first few hundred pages. Like, I was reading on the train, banging my head against the window because I hated it so much.
I really should have DNFed.

This is a fantastic post. I always get frustrated with the blogging drama that happens on twitter...I wish we could all just focus on the positives.

All the best for 2016! I hope you have a great, positive year!

As someone who has read zero John Green, I have to say that seeing reviews like this isn't making me want to change that status.
And reading the synopsis of each of his books doesn't give me any motivation to read them either.
