I am working my way through my library built up over the last 10 years or so, many of these DNFs are books I bought on sale when I first switched to Kobo and have been sitting unread for 4 years or more. They're all in genres I enjoy, with synopses that sounded appealing at the time. DNFing them is clearing out the detritus.
