I have been reading the dune series for awhile now. I reached the fourth book but I just can't seem to finish it. I already took forever to finish the first three books but this fourth one is a really slow read. The slow pacing is killing me. I've read over half of the book and I feel like nothing actually happened in the past 320 pages. I don't feel any connection to the characters expect for Duncan and Sonia. I feel like the first book was the last book I actually enjoyed reading in the series and even that is a stretch. The books tend to have the slowest pacing ever and I feel like the characters are more like political pawns than actually being a character I can connect to. I think I am going to take a break from the series and move on to other books. Such a shame since I've seen many people say the fourth book is one the best in the series but I can't seem to finish or enjoy it 🙁

No shame in not finishing a series. I like fantasy but you couldn’t pay me to finish the hobbit or the wheel of time series
I am often surprised when people don’t love the same books I do. But that is only because I often forget how many books I didn’t care for that connected strongly with them.
