6 Books I Couldn't Get Into (And DNF-ed)


I've debated drafting up and publishing this post. Mainly because, when I do book lists like this, I want to focus on the books that I actually enjoyed so that others may enjoy them as well. However, then I realized that a list like this could do exactly that: even if I didn't enjoy a book, someone else can still enjoy it.

This year, I've been reminding myself that it is okay to DNF books. As a result, I created a "2021 DNF-ed Books" on Goodreads so I can keep track of books I did DNF. In most cases, when I mention on Goodreads that I DNF-ed a book, I also mention if I plan to pick it back up again at some point. This shelf has really helped me out, both in keeping track of what books I DNF-ed and in which ones I'd like to pick back up.


Here are 6 books I couldn't get into (and DNF-ed), in the order I read them:
  1. White Rage, Carol Anderson
  2. Scythe, Neal Shusterman
  3. Mexican Gothic, Silvia Moreno-Garcia
  4. The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue, V.E. Schwab
  5. The Nightingale, Kristin Hannah
  6. Elizabeth I, Margaret George
