When you're reading a book and you're kind of on the fence about whether you like it or not, how long do you typically give it a chance before you stop reading? Hoping it'll get better or the interesting parts will pick up before you give it up and switch to something else?

@RobotDiver Wow, that doesn't seem like a lot, but it is good to have a set number.

@RobotDiver Then again a lot of books have long chapters, and a lot can happen, or not happen as the case may be, in them.

So the book I was eluding to here? I know this might not mean a lot but one way I judge the popularity of book and TV series is looking them up on fanfiction sites. There are 3 stories on FFN, and 1 is a duplicate. On AO3 it has 8. Wow, guess a lot of people were unmoved by it. #Fanfiction
