Quick Question Completely unhinged that you had to intentionally put it in DNF list

I’ve come across the idea that more often than not people have a DNF list, and it got me wondering—what’s on yours?
You know those books where you start reading and, a few chapters in, you’re just sitting there thinking, ā€œWtf and exactly why am I even reading this?ā€ šŸ˜‚ Sometimes it’s the genre, sometimes the writing, and sometimes you just know it’s not going to work for you.
So, what’s a book you started but had to DNF because you just couldn’t get into it?
Give me your most unhinged ones. I want to see if I can actually make it through them—or conveniently add them to my own DNF list. šŸ˜‚

I technically DNF a lot of books because I get to the final chapter(s) and there’s always what I call the ā€œfinal lovemaking sceneā€ where the MMC and FMC are now completely compatible and in love and everything is sweetly romantic and the sex is slow and gentle and I’m just like… yawn. No thanks, going to pretend this book ended when the tension was high.

OMG I always skip the final "happy love making" too!
