I was wondering because I'm thinking of some books I've read over the last few years. Books I absolutely hated but I couldn't DNF them because I, personally, wanted to see how bad it would get. But there could be different reasons for finishing a book you disliked. So I wanted to know if you have PFs? And what made it painful for you?

I'll go first. For me it was definitely

A Stage set for villains: Terrible world building and I was left with more questions than answers.

The love Hypothesis: Not. Enough. STEM. What do you mean this a stem romance.

My vampire plus one: The most ridiculous vampire novel I'd ever read. And I've read Twilight.

Fourth wing: y'all there are better dragon riding novels out there. Trust me.

What about you guys? Lowkey PageBound should have an option for "Painfully finished".
