Welcome to the Book Nook! This is the weekly thread for Avocados to discuss books we’re currently reading, recommendations, genre, and serious literary criticism.

This week’s recommended discussion: Do you give up on books, or do you see a tough read through to the bitter end? If you bail on a book, when do you know it’s time? An eye-rolling plot development, a character doing something awful, or the book just doesn’t hold your attention?
hat tip to sic humor

One caveat: because we’re here to use our words, this is a NO GIF/YouTube/social media embed zone (the OTs are full of clutter, and I want to keep that out of this thread).

upcoming topics:
4/17: books that make you think of family, friend, enemy, etc.
