My book hack is to head over to Goodreads.com and stalk the book like a cat 😼.

-How many people have rated it, what is the average rating, what else has the author written.

Life is too short to read bad books... in fact life is too short to just read good books.

I want to read GREAT BOOKS!! 🥰💫

Nick if I were smart I would spend more time investigating books in advance like you do, and less time checking them out of the library, reading one chapter and tossing them out the window.

You get a gold star for giving yourself permission to quit a book and move on. That is brilliant and difficult. 🙏🏾

It IS difficult! Mr. Ready, the visiting every bookstore guy, says that once he starts a book he ALWAYS finishes. I understand the impulse but have adopted the one chapter/first 50 pages rule. If it's not fun yet, out the window!

Maybe a good trash heap photo below your window?
