I used to argue hard for finishing every book before the meeting, even if I hated it, but last month she said that line after I quit a 480 page novel on page 90 and finally admitted she was right. Now I show up with honest notes instead of fake ones, and our group actually talks about why a book failed instead of just praising it. How do you all handle a pick that half the room didn't finish?
