Hmm. You would appear to be someone who reads to the bitter end!
To me, books are like food. There's food I don't like, food I might like, food I do like. Sometimes I can tell that I won't like something just by looking at it. Sometimes a taste is enough to tell me I don't like it. Some I'm indifferent to after tasting, but now & then it gets better as I eat more. Some I learn to like. Some just need butter & salt. And some is so damn good I have to force myself to slow down and savor it.
I see no reason to eat more of any book that doesn't taste good.
