Should I DNF?
I liked Gideon the ninth. Although it was hard for me to get into. Now I am on Harrow and I want to DNF but I already bought Nona. Now I feel like I have to push through and read them because I already paid for them. Maybe I will just treat them as decor. I don’t know. Has anyone finished these is it worth it to get through the very confusing Harrow?
