DNF because it's so fun

3 days agoEdited to

... Read moreเคยไหมที่จับหนังสือเล่มหนึ่งที่สนุกมาก จนแทบไม่อยากวาง แต่สุดท้ายกลับเลือกที่จะ DNF หรือ Did Not Finish ซึ่งหลายคนอาจคิดว่าเป็นเรื่องแย่ แต่จริงๆ แล้วมันมีเหตุผลลึกซึ้งกว่านั้นมาก จากประสบการณ์ส่วนตัว การ DNF หนังสือที่สนุกมากไม่ได้แปลว่าเราไม่มีความตั้งใจ แต่บางครั้งเป็นเพราะเราอยากเก็บความประทับใจนั้นไว้ ไม่อยากให้มันจบเร็วเกินไป หรืออาจเพราะเวลาที่มีจำกัด หรือมีหนังสือหลายเล่มที่รออ่านพร้อมกัน ทำให้ต้องเลือกหยุดบางเล่มก่อนเพื่อไม่ให้ล้นจนเกินไป นอกจากนี้ การ DNF ยังช่วยให้เราทำความเข้าใจตัวเองในการเลือกหนังสือที่เหมาะสมกับอารมณ์และเวลาของเราในช่วงนั้น เราอาจจะกลับมาอ่านหนังสือเล่มนั้นอีกครั้งเมื่อพร้อม และจะได้สนุกกับมันอย่างเต็มที่อีกครั้ง สำหรับใครที่ชอบอ่านแล้วหยุดกลางคัน ลองเลือกทำไดอารี่บันทึกความรู้สึกหรือจดไว้สั้นๆ ว่าชอบอะไรในแต่ละบท อาจช่วยให้เรารักษาความสนุกของหนังสือไว้ได้โดยไม่ต้องรีบอ่านจนจบอย่างเร่งรีบ สุดท้ายการ DNF เพราะสนุกมากก็เหมือนกับการหยุดพักระหว่างทางในการเดินทางที่น่าตื่นเต้น เพื่อชื่นชมวิวทิวทัศน์ก่อนจะไปต่อ มันไม่ใช่เรื่องผิดหรือแย่ แต่เป็นวิธีหนึ่งที่ช่วยให้การอ่านหนังสือมีคุณค่ามากขึ้นสำหรับเราเอง

why we DNF books
Let’s normalize this: if a book isn’t giving what it promised, we are allowed to respectfully close it and move on. Period. Because reading is supposed to be fun, flirty, devastating, enchanting — not a punishment 💅📚 #dnfbook #unfiltered #books #dnf #arcreading

Yeaaa soo I knew that I didn’t like romance books but this book really sealed the deal for me. I honestly feel like the author put wayy too much detail into the paragraphs (idk if that makes sense). Like she would spend one paragraph just talking about what a side character was wearing. Like okay.?

Books I wish I DNF’d ❌
This was before I knew how to DNF a book and… I wish I had with these. My main reasons were either the book was way too unrealistic for a thriller/unbelievable, not age appropriate or just straight up boring 🥱 No hate if you liked these! They just were my cup of tea and that’s okay! ✨
