There was a middle section of books that was unbearable. If the series hadn’t been recommended to me by a close friend I’d have DNF’d it and been far happier.

I restrain my reading because I dislike unfinished stories (and cliffhangers) more than not knowing what book to read.

Those 2 also ruined unfinished series for me.
The Wheel Of Time ruined series longer than trilogies for me.
So I generally only read stand-alone novels now, which makes it hard to find very good books to read.
I feel your pain.

Reply to comment by Kindstar11 in Pro-tip: If a well reviewed book has a Goodread's rating of around 3.5 then it's usually interesting by Proper_Cold_6939
I’ve consistently found books that I DNF which are rated in the 3s, and consistently found books that I enjoy enough to finish which are rated in the 4s.
I no longer start books rated in the 3s.
Edit to add: I’m referring to the book’s overall average.

Nice. I see what you did there.
