The Life Impossible, by Matt Haig. Bored me nearly to death.

There's a difference between an uncomfortable book and one that gives the ick. Some books are important and challenge us, but I DNF'd a horror book recently for being so disturbing it made me ill. It's not like wasting food. You just didn't find value in finishing. Not all books are worth your time.
