Post short (<250 pages) books you can't bring yourself to finish and others tell you why they are/aren't worth completing.

Pic related for me, the angry rambling is barely coherent and while I can relate in a disturbing way, it isn't gripping enough for me to push through

Seconding what the other guy said. You should stick with YA or just not bother reading.

Notes is very short. What do you have to lose in finishing a 150 page book?

Notes was also hard for me to finish but I did. Just know that about half way it turns from a philosophic rambling of a social outcast to an actual story. So just try and get to the second part which will make it all worth it.

Pic related was a huge drag for me, the stories' themes are so subtle and most of the references went right over my head that i didnt garner much enjoyment from it

I've read books much longer and more difficult than NFU, that still doesnt change the fact that dostoevsky is a dense motherfucker to read

Desert Solitaire by Edward Abbey and also having a hard time getting to the end of Minima Moralia by Adorno, but I'm getting there.
