Beware of Chicken by CasualFarmer, CasualFarmer
Did not finish book. Stopped at 33%.

Not for me. I liked the scenes with the human relationships, was literally just skipping pages on the other content.

Matrix by Lauren Groff
Did not finish book. Stopped at 66%.

I loved Part One, but I couldn’t finish. It just slowed way down for me. I wanted to edit out so many scenes. Lauren Groff is a fabulous writer, but this just wasn’t working for me right now.
