At some point I realized that it is okay to drop a book I started reading. If it turns out to be boring or not meeting whatever expectations I had, I just ditch it and move on.
Sometimes the introduction chapter(s) is the killer when the author tries too hard to convince you to read the book when you're in fact already reading the book. It starts to feel like forever before I actually learn anything new or useful from the book.
