Bailing on my #doublespin book of February
I knew it was time after days of picking it up reading a sentence and putting it down, today I picked it up and an actual groan left my body.
I love Roxane Gay and maybe this just isn't my time for this book but all of the sexual violence isn't sitting well and is making this a chore to read.

LiteraryinLawrence Good call! You know what you can handle. 💗 14mo
jlhammar I think I prefer Roxane Gay‘s nonfiction. I ended up bailing on this one. 14mo
ChaoticMissAdventures @jlhammar me too! I have enjoyed all her nonfiction, and I adore her as a human this book though just wasn't it for me. 14mo

ChaoticMissAdventures @LiteraryinLawrence sometimes it's okay you know? And others it is just too much. 14mo
dabbe Good time to move on to something you'll love! 😊 14mo
ChaoticMissAdventures @dabbe yes! I love bailing on books that are not working. So many good things out there to read instead. 14mo
dabbe @ChaoticMissAdventures I used to think I had to finish everything I started reading, but the older I get I now think, “Time's a-wastin'!“ and (almost gleefully) let that bad book go. #quiteliberating 🤗 14mo
TheAromaofBooks Not every book is a match!! Sometimes it's good to just get one off the shelves. 14mo
