I once wrote a review that started with, "I quit reading this book at the first ten pages." The author emailed me and was furious. The first ten pages were graphic descriptions of a woman being tortured, hearing her cartilage cracking, feeling....never mind. I assumed his target audience was limited to sadists and I didn't qualify.
I started another book recently but only made it about 50 pages into the book when I decided it wasn't going to get any better.
If someone says they didn't finish the book and then goes on to explain why they didn't finish the book, do you consider that a valid book review?
