I always say to myself that it is not worth to force books through. I do like 1/5th then I drop it if it did not catch me. Now I’m reading Pandora’s star which is a great scifi book and sandwitched inbetween the great scfi chapters there is this uninteresting detective storyline with zero scifi, people talking to eachother about uninteresting stuff. I found myself forcing the book and questioned multiple times if I should continue. Then again a great chapter comes with interesting stuff I get hooked and within an eyeglance I’m back into this people talking each other for 30 pages. I will decide if I keep going or not, maybe I try to force it throgh the base storyline is keeping me hooked. Did you had any similar experience? What did you do?

    Pandora’s Star all ties together, give it time. The second book is great too. I’ve read them both like a dozen times!
