What are your thoughts on DNF (Did Not Finish)-ing books? Do you feel guilty about it? Do you worry you missed out on something? Or are you confident in dropping a book and reaching for the next one?

At what point are you most likely to DNF, if ever? What sorts of things cause you to DNF?
My friend, book blogger Kriti, was musing on these questions a while back, and it sparked this new post: https://armedwithabook.com/dealing-with-dnf-the-practice-of-did-not-finish/

@skaeth I have only intentionally done that once (I have a number of books that I intend to get back to, but probably never will). I am mad at the book - I invested 45 minutes before throwing it down. It was a fantasy book with a great world build and setup - except I concluded that if the next page switched to a Vogon telling telling the rest of the universe that everyone on the planet was like that and switched to some science fiction about building a hyperspace bypass the whole would be improved.
Otherwise if I invest the time to read more than 2 pages I want to finish it.
