Let's say you read a book and had a definite dislike for it. Do you provide the author with further opportunities for redemption? If so, how many?
 
Why? Books last forever. There are infinitesimal books to read that aren't of the views of a singular author. That being said it doesn't hurt to read the book if you are still willing to read it.
 
I once read a book by Chris Bohjalian and words cannot express how much I disliked it. I haven't read anything form him again.
 
It depends on what I disliked. Some authors can be quite one sided & like to use a lot of swearing to get their point across. Authors tend to follow a pattern so those are the ones I nix & never look back on.
