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 usually have a good amount of theory lined up, but I do get more paralyzed by choice of fiction to read, yea!

This is me. I have like 150 books on my tbr, but I get choice paralysis about what to read next

Yea, that's why I made an intro Marxist-Leninist reading list, actually! For fiction though I just bounce around to whatever sounds interesting at the time, but I hate not finishing so sometimes I just stall out for months at a time...
