I think it may be being down voted as it can he read as saying stop reading entirely rather than just stop reading a particular book, ie an attack on reading as an activity. Doubt the comment was meant that way though and I agree with you, dropping a particular book if it's not rewarding is something I do although I do still struggle with myself when doing so.

We have 1000's of books in our house. We read a lot and I would have not imagined a second that my comment could be interpreted this way.
So, yes, drop the specific book and enjoy another one is my advice.
