Read something totally opposite of what you normally do. Try a new genre, start a reading challenge
Get something that you would not normally read.
When I was in a reading slump in August I had trouble finding what I wanted to read… then I had picked something easy like Narnia books
Once upon a bookclub book box
The gifts on certain pages keep you motivated to keep reading
Join a book bingo!
Take your time. A book will call to you. Dont force it.
Try an audiobook
Read poetry!
I usually reread an old favorite.
I always reread my favorites
Something light and fun
Read a children’s classic, something like Charlottes web
Search a book you last liked in amazon and see what similar titles it suggest with a lot of great reviewers
I read something non-fiction when I get reading ennui.
Take a 2 week vacation to the beach and read while your relaxing with a margarita. I’ll go with you, lol.
I always re-read my old favorites especially ones that suit my current mood, that always kickstarts my desire to read
pick up a book from an author you really like
I took a break from it and then came back a few months later and started again.
Switch genres from what you usually read I normally like historical romance but when I get in a slump I will switch to contemporary mysteries or contemporary romance.
Don’t get in one in the first place? ??
Change genre
Try something that you wouldn’t normally read, pick something very random and approach it with an open mind a x
Find a popular book in a different genre 🙂
Try listening to an audiobook
I switch it up often with different genres and that seems to work for me.
Go to book store walk around read all the book jackets until that special one pops out at you
Take a break from reading or try a new genre maybe?
Perhaps try a book of a different genre you have never read.
Usually for me it’s about getting back in the habit of reading if I’ve been staying up all night crafting or working instead. I’ll take two random books I’ve been meaning to read and let one of my dogs pick for me (completely impartial, though usually the older the book I know they’ll probably be more interested in the smell of), and then make myself read x-amount of pages at least every couple of days before bed.
