I generally give books "the Stephen King 100". That is, if I'm still uninterested after 100 pages I usually ditch it or start skimming. I used to read everything, plodding my way through no matter what, otherwise I'd feel... unfinished. But I've become a lot more likely to leave a book since I got my ereader. I suppose because it's so much easier to just click a button and move on the to the next book?? I don't even have to get up!
Came about because my friends and I used to read a lot of King, and if someone said "I just don't know if I'm going to like this one" we'd encourage them to read at least 100 pages, because that's usually when his bloated books would pick up pace.
