I recently read the folk of the air, and I loved it but I have found myself in a book slump. I need recommendations that will get me into finishing a book in a day because I'm trying to be interested in a book but I just can't. PLS HELP GUYS

I know these are super popular but AGGGTM is amazing, anything Holly Jackson writes is just so good (+ Not Quite Dead Yet). You could also try Nine Perfect Strangers by Liane Moriarty - not a fantasy but very thrilling, it's about people who go to a wellness retreat and it gets a bit bonkers. And also the Darkest Minds by Alexandra Bracken is great too! Hope you find a book you like! 🌼
The prison healer!!! So underrated and so so incredibly written with the most unexpected twist and plots!.
Ooh!! I was suffering from it recently but I found Eletric life by Rachel Delahaye to be a good cure!
OK SECOND THE PRISON HEALERbut here are what helped me in my slumps
Cinder
The naturals fss fsss
The fault in our stars
The summer I turned pretty (ok I hated this one but still)
I also found listening to audiobooks help and also REALLY short chapters. I also like books that I can turn my brain off if that makes sense.
@Rosedall tysm!! I wanted to pick up the prison healer but I'm in a big book slump rn still and then some other unforseen circumstances (lowk pray for me) and I'd love to pick it up soon. ive already read the naturals, Jennifer lynn Barnes is one (if not my fav) authors everr and I read tfios which I found really boring( I'm sorry). TSITP I watched the show already so idk😭
Tha Amari Knight series is a good one, the Magesterium collection is really good. Anything Gordon Korman, Jason Reynolds, Walter Dean Myers, Christopher Paul Curtis and you can always reread something you love!

I hope you don't mind me recommending my own book - RUBY. RUBY
If you do read RUBY let me know your thoughts!
I recommend my own book, DOPPELGÄNGER JUMPER. It reads fast and is the story of an ordinary girl who finds some magic in her life when she learns she can jump to other realms. Thanks! Check it out. Judy Lyn Gregg
