I'm about half way into a novel which I've exited from a reading session with 'meh' several times now.
Can't relate to any of the characters at all, and because of that I don't care about them nor have any interest in finding out how their predicaments resolve.
Good thing it's an e-book and there are dozens of other new-to-me e-books on the device. No shelf space taken up, no book to get rid of via second hand means.
