I can only think of maybe 5 or 6 books that I have started & not finished (the Silmarilion was one, not sure I can remember many others)
I feel that to finish a book shows respect to the author and it is an important skill
I try to instil this in my 10 yo
I picked up the book thief last week and started it; put it down picked it up a day later & started again
After 4 or 5 trys I can't get past the first 100 pages or so
Has anyone else struggled or am I just odd?
