My deal with books are, if they grab me in the first couple of chapters I'll read it like a mad woman til it's finished..If the book doesn't grab me...it's a no go and I'll leave it never to be opened again!
So If I know the book is going to be a good one, I better make sure I'm ready to sit and read because nothing else gets done until it is.
What a good quote. I try not to judge people by the books that they've read, enjoyed or disliked, unless they have other characteristics that concern me. Other than that, books are just pieces of information that are always open to interpretation because it's not always easy to tell hoe accurate they are....even the non-fiction ones.
That is what makes reading so exciting.
I've finished about maybe 90% of the books that I started reading, even those from college.
If the book becomes annoying, then I figure that there is no reason to waste another minute of my life forcing myself to finish something that is like a job to read, lol.

Oh I like this quote! And I know I often judge people (whether rightly or wrongly) by the books they loved or hated.
And I see you are reading Visit from the Goon Squad. I have that ready to go...I just have to finish my "obligation" books first.
