When a story has no new plot points, ideas, presentation, or themes set forth in the first two chapters I won't waste my time on the rest of it.
Similarly, if Hermione sounds not only like an American teenager but particularly slow-witted American teenager then the back button is my friend.

Oh, the slow-witted American teen Hermione is a brilliant example that features far too often in fic these days!
