Stop Reading Books You Aren’t Enjoying

If you find yourself wanting to speed up the reading process on a particular book, you might want to ask yourself: “Is this book any good?”

You turn off a TV show or movie if it’s boring. You stop eating food that doesn’t taste good. You unfollow people when you realize their content is useless.

Life is too short to read books you don’t enjoy reading. The thumb rule: 100 pages minus your age — so if you’re 30 years old and a book hasn’t captivated you by page 70, stop reading it.

That way, as you age, you have to endure crappy books less and less.
