I don't like them, and usually stop kusoma if it's too slow for too long.

It's a fine line. Building up tension is good, but if the beginning is too long, then the pacing suffers.

I often enjoy slow begginigs but only if the story becomes interesting after a while. If not, I read a while and if I get bored I stop reading and never recommend that book to anyone :) hehe

The begining of a story should be intense enough to captivate the reader. If you lose someone's interest from the start, it's really hard to earn it back. Of course it also depends on how "slow" you mean.

It's really hard to figure out a good start. I like either, sometimes, as long as "slow" isn't too slow and "fast" isn't too fast...
