I have slowly become better at dropping books I'm not enjoying, I used to be quite obsessive about finishing. And I think you're right, e-books have helped. There are just so many books so easily available that I don't have to worry about what I'm going to read next. I don't pay a premium for anyone except true favourites, everyone else can wait until the price comes down because I have more than enough to keep me busy. Thanks for the karma.

I've been putting off reading 11.22.63, and for the moment my schedule doesn't permit it, so I'm postponing it still further. On verra ce qu'on verra.
