I used a bunch of those “if you loved this book” lists from Pinterest. I went through a fairy tale retelling stage, angel stage, dystopian…
Just reading something I really wanted and was excited about instead of what I thought I should be reading helped a lot. I went from reading 30-60 books a year to almost 300 in 2017.
Oh wow. I wish I could read that much!! I work way to much to read that much! I sometimes read with a buddy
@Courtney yeah it got a little out of hand. A more demanding job would cut into my reading for sure which is why I don’t want one ?
what kind of books do you usually enjoy?
Young adult or new adult. Sorry it took me forever to reply, I was dealing and still dealing with death of my aunt
I am so so sorry for your loss /: sending you some love ?
do you like more sci fi? fantasy? dystopian?
Never got into sci-fi, or fantasy. Some of dystopian! And thank you
Have you tried reread an absolute favourite?
Yes!!
I ended up in a huge reading slump last year when I lost my job. I ended up binging shows on Netflix. The thing that pulled me out was reading books that reminded me of a particular couple on one of the tv shows I couldn’t stop rewatching. So maybe try something like that.
Yep that was me in 2012/2013 (also lost a job, gained a foster daughter) so I binged The Wire, Mad Men and countless other movies until I could climb out of my head and start reading again.
@Tricia yes! And on top of losing one job, I got another that required a pretty big move so I had so much trouble focusing. So instead I became OBSESSED with Kurt and Blaine on Glee and decided to read gay romance until I was able to get back into the swing of reading. Then I moved on to the many other genres I read.
I think that periods happens to most people who love to read and will pass
Spellslinger!!
