My DNF List
Below is a list of books I decided not to finish starting in 2023.
Permanent DNF List
Asteriks means that I may decided to retry to read the book in the future.
Darkfever - Karen Marie Moning *
The Outsider - Stephen King
The Devil Within Us All - William F. Gray
Zombie - Iain Rob Wright
The Time Machine - H.G. Wells
Scary Stories To Tell In The Dark - Alvin Schwartz
Emily Wilde's Encyclopedia Of Faeries - Heather Fawcett *
Never Whistle At Night - Multiple Authors
Ember In The Ashes - Sabaa Tahir *
Soft DNF List - aka To Be Continued
Butcher & Blackbird - Brynne Weaver. I only have the physical book and it is hard to read physical books with my RA. Left off page 55.
Poetic Edda - Jackson Crawford. I got pissed at something Odin said, so I took a break. Left off after the Havamal,
The Drawing of the Three - Stephen King - in no mood to read his books as off April 39, 2024. Left off at 33%.
But, what does DNF mean? It's an acronym for Did Not Finish.
Why did you not finish that book though? I decided in late 2023 or very early 2024 I would stop reading books if I could not get into them by 30% in. I could stop reading earlier as well if I just couldn't get into a book.
What is a soft DNF? It is a book I plan on continuing, but am not reading it any longer despite starting it. There is a high chance it will go on my permanent DNF list above. These books are not to be mixed in with the books on my permanent DNF list that I may try to read again in the future.
