Reading Habits

You ever have that time when you're reading a great, long, story and then as you're heading into the conclusion something happens to the love interest of the main character and all you can do is worry if they're still alive and start skimming through the climactic battle just to find out? It sort of put a damper on the story I was reading for me tbh but I do tend to put more of an emphasis on stories that focus on the relationship aspects of the characters rather than the action.

 

I do make exceptions from time to time if a story has really grabbed me, but I've also dropped reading stories where it seemed to go on forever (which I've come across through fanfic more often than I expected) because I only have so much time to read and I'm sorry but I can't give my limited time to a never-ending story that is longer than most novels by many multiples.
