Re: Have you ever stopped reading a book?

Several, but the most recent one is Rule 34 by Charles Stross because I hadn't realised it was written entirely in second person (despite having multiple POV characters! who does that?!) until nearly finishing the first chapter. I also dropped Accelerando by Stross because after ten pages it didn't make any sense and I had no patience for that, just having finished an extremely confusing and hard to follow SF book (Too Like the Lightning, no idea how I got all the way to the end). The previous ones were probably SF books, too, dropped for similar reasons (if I don't care for a single character after the first 20-50 pages or so, I give up, so SF is a tough genre for me to enjoy).

Oh, and there was also Carry On for having the most insufferable writing style. Literally like bad fanfiction.

I really enjoyed Carry On because it read like fanfiction. I found it amusing. All my friends hated it though.
