Man, the wheel of time is such a slog. Just finished book 10 and that was 600 pages of setting up for action.

I'm deeply invested at this point and I can't convince myself to walk away with only 5 books remaining.

@mayintoronto “Only” 5 book 😭
You must be a completionist. I’ve dropped series and even a single book midway if I feel it’s a slog or even simply not that interesting.
@stephaniepixie @mayintoronto In recent memory I dropped a book at something like 96% complete on my Kindle. Imagine getting that close and saying “fuggit; I don’t care.”
@tantramar I went as far as 60 or 65% on a Kindle book and dropped it. I’m genuinely impressed by 96%. I would keep going by the 90% mark unless something really upsetting happened out of the blue.
@stephaniepixie It was just such a slog to get even that far. Sunk cost fallacy, etc. Also it was the first of a trilogy, and clearly wasn’t approaching anything resembling an ending. 😬🤷‍♂️
