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?

    Exactly. Life is too short to read a boring book. I paid for an audiobook on the Celts, thinking I would learn something about them. I got about a third of the way through and realized I was barely absorbing anything because the author had a boring as fuck style. Don’t give in to the sunk cost fallacy of having spent time and perhaps money on a book.
