it takes me AGES to decide on a new book to read. Anyone else? I don't like DNF'ing books, so I get worried i won't like the book, and would have to then DNF it, which i don't like.

I've been primarily reading/listening to books through my Libby app, and I keep a handful on hold at all times as well as a tagged list of books that have caught my eye, as well as by authors or narrators that I've enjoyed in the past.

Whenever I finish one book I can immediately see what's up next in my holds and if that doesn't appeal to me I can pick a book out of my interesting books list. There's usually something that fits the right vibe for me and if there's not, I can find something I'm likely to enjoy because it's by an author I like.
