I used to get this all the time. Until I started reading like 6 books at a time. I just start and read whatever I feel like when I feel like. Works for me.

But don't you get a feeling of satisfaction from finishing a book? Don't you miss it if you don't get it?

I always finish the books even if I don't like it so much. I get a bit more satisfaction sometimes when I chance finish 2 books in a day.

I read a book I dont like until the end so I can leave a shitty rating on goodreads, which makes me feel like a literature critic.

This happened when I read The Sun Also Rises by Hemingway. Christ I wanted the pain to end.
