You wanted to read the book, you were excited to crack it open, you came into it with good faith and anticipation… but you ended up dnf-ing it. Which book and why?

Mine was The Maid by Nita Prose. It was for my book club and looked like a fun murder mystery. Instead I got instant manic-pixie-dream-neurodivergent-girl vibes, and I noped out before the crime scene was even found.

    Probably Dharma Bums, which I read one chapter of and found very self-obsessed and boring. There have been many that I’ve unintentionally DNFd after about ~50 pages, because life gets distracting and ADHD makes it hard to remember to read at the times when I can.
