20: Bail after 1/4 of a book?

The most likely scenario is me not getting that far if I'm not keen, but if I did either:
-It goes onto the shelf with the other books at under 25% that I'll get to if I ever have leisure time again.
-I do push through because I know the author or had them recommended. (Discworld falls under that heading. Strangely enough, I couldn't get into it... though it's been a decade, maybe I would now.)
