How do you push through a book you aren't enjoying? - eviltoast

I ask because I tend to jump off a book if It’s not grabbing me, which at times limits me with regards to what I’m reading.

Does it matter? Is it something I should try to push past or am I overthinking this and should just enjoy what I enjoy?

    I don’t.

    I’ve even read philosophical works that go against what I think and feel and spend the entire time arguing with someone who has probably been dead for hundreds of years.

    But I enjoy that from time to time to keep my mind sharp.

    No point in reading something that doesn’t grab you and resonate with you. Life is too short to put myself through that.
