My situation with this novel is an odd one. I read up to page 250 and considered DNFing it for the first time, but persevered. The thought returned shortly after page 300, and again a bit before 400. At page 438 I stopped; I told myself that I didn’t need to force myself to keep reading even if it was a Cassandra Clare book. However, I was curious about the ending, so I flipped to the epilogue. While interesting, it didn’t tell me much. Then I flipped toward the end — I’m not sure of the page but I had roughly 150 pages left — and skimmed most of what remained. I read most of the final battle, though I don’t know exactly what caused it, and the very end. So no, I didn’t DNF it, but I skipped a good portion of the middle. I’m not sure what to call this.
