I could have though of the answer of turning down a lot of them by the first chapters and I would like to ask you if you could do the following
how about guessing percentages:
Books submitted 100%
Books turned down XX%
Turned down by the first two chapters AA%
Turned down by the end BB%
Turned down somewhere in the middle CC%

and I'd like to add, how much of a change do you consider agreeable to recheck a book (if let's say the plot was extremely good, but the style was awful or all was good, but the ending was really weird...) ?
