Got 100 pages into don Quixote and couldnt be bothered to continue. There was nothing to pull me further

Inb4 short term attention span modern reader. I've read war and peace and most of dostoyevsky, Cervantes is just not engaging

Yes.

If I am not hooked within the first 10 pages then the book goes back to the library.

All the time. Wikisource, Gutenberg, the Library---I check it out real quick and if it's garbage I drop it immediately. I trust my sense of taste well enough to believe I know better within the first few pages.

I did drop one /sffg/ written fantasy book in roughly 5 min. It had a mystery but the autist author wanted to explain the kingdom's economy in detail first, revealing the mystery within the first pages in the process.
Also anything that has time travel or isekai elements gets dropped the first moment I notice I've been tricked into reading it
