    I have a friend who grimly stuck it out through Wheel of Time long after he stopped enjoying it out of completionism.

    Screw that.

      For books, I get it. I feel a deep compulsion to finish any book I start, whether I like it or not.

      For television shows? Nah, I’ll stop right away if I get bored.

          Yeah, I don’t blame him. If the slog were one or two books, that would be forgivable, but four and the majority of Knife of Dreams is excessive.

            I’m pretty sure I would never have fully read the series if I didn’t start it as a teen with too much time to spare
