"...drop books after 50 pages of not being good..."
This is very good advice.
99% of what I read is non-fiction (and pretty dry) and I feel an obligation to slog through it because I want to learn the subject matter. I tend to get 2/3 through most of this stuff then shelf it. I'm going to move that threshold down to 50 pages or so. Tak!
