What was the last thing you DNF'd?

[(Anonymous)]

Tried reading Out by Natsuo Kirino. Only got a couple chapters in.

Love Will Tear Us Apart (Stranger Times 3) although I did try to give it another go yesterday. There seems to be a trend with urban fantasy to write one enjoyable book with an interesting dynamic between the characters and a fun setting, then make sure to split the group up and change the setting for every subsequent novel in the series. In the case of Stranger Times, the author isn’t a strong enough writer and the characters aren’t compelling enough to survive that change.

Attack on Titan. I watched a third of the show and never enjoyed it.

An anime called Ya Boy Kongming, about the strategist from Chinese history being sent to modern day Tokyo. DNF'ed when the main character wasn't even him but an insufferable wannabe idol who we're supposed to believe is struggling to get recognized even though she looks and sings exactly like every other real and fictional popular idol.

AH! I was watching that anime when it was coming out in Japan and yeah SAME. DNF it because of the same reason. The idol was :/// not interesting at all. My boy Kongming and the OP were awesome though.
I think I made the right decision dropping it because I still have fond memories of the few eps I saw and still like the premise.

It’s just not for me. The characters’ incompetence is supposed to be funny, but I just find it infuriating.

Witch King, by Martha Wells. Several of my friends raved about it but I just felt so lost, and if it hadn't hooked me by the halfway point it was never going to. *shrug*

Red, White, & Royal Blue, the movie. I noped out after less than ten minutes.

I read the book in preparation for watching the movie, and I liked the book quite a bit. I didn't LOVE it the way a lot of people do, but I thought it was charming and snappy and well-written. I don't know why I thought the movie was going to be good, but for some reason I did.

Now obviously I can't say for certain that the movie was bad, having noped out after less than ten minutes. But nothing about that first nine minutes felt like it captured any of the things that made the book good, that's for sure. :(

Neil Gaiman's Norse Mythology.

I enjoy his storytelling but my brain just doesn't connect with the way he writes.
