Speaking as someone who finished William S. Burroughs Naked Lunch, I usually finish a book...particularly if I have some reason to think that someone somewhere seemed to find some relevance / meaning / redeeming value. In the case of the aforementioned "book," it was Liam Neeson in the movie and Norman Mailer's opening...and I have say that might have been the most egregiously painful experience I have ever forced myself to endure. I've picked up random books at the Library or a garage sale and not finished them...but I'll usually see it through. Leave it in the bathroom and read it a few lines at a time.
Fremen: that's odd. I always wanted to be Tom Bombadil. What, the world is ending? Screw it. I'll be drinking with my lady friend and generally being outside time. Here's a hint: anytime you see Tolkien start to go into a song, or a march, or a poem, skip it. They all suck.
