I see the logic, and I'm not really sure if I disagree with it. But is it possible that the time you took with those books you decided to continue could have been better spent? Even if some of those you didn't initially like became favourites later? I am going to assume that you also have favorites that you did actually like initially and didn't have to push through an initial burn in phase. If that's true, then you would have missed out on the slow burn favorites but might have found more favourites that didn't have the slow burn which you haven't gotten to read yet.

You're not wrong either I like reading enough that I still enjoy reading a book even if I don't finish it. I think I tend to get hooked pretty far into a novel 100 pages or so... Its actually pretty rare that I'm hooked on a story immediately although they do exist. Lol I guess I'm saying I have no idea
