When you decide to put a book down?

I feel like I often times spend time reading books I don't enjoy
SIMPLY because I'm HOPING it'll get better.
However, this year I'm trying to do better for my own ADHD brain.
I lose interest quick.
It's either because I am NOT in the head space to read this type of book (I then put that book on-hold)
OR
it's because the book is just bad or not interesting to me AT ALL (I then put them on my DNF list)

That being said-I struggle to DNF(Do not finish) at times.
So I'm trying to create guidelines for myself.

So like if within 50 pages I am not interested I can DNF
OR
should it be if I reach 100 pages and am not enjoying it or am not interested I DNF.

I'm struggling to decide which one to do!
Do you guys have any guidelines you follow for this type of stuff?
Do you have any comments on my own system or suggestions for me?


HELP!


​

Everyone has different guidelines for books

For me I mostly buy books that I know would keep hooked till the last page
Like I love murder mysteries, thrillers, romance so I mostly buy those
Also I check reviews for the specific book if it's interesting or not
