You might try re-reading a book you really love! Or reading a new release by an author you really love. You may also try reading a set of short stories - one of a genre you love - the short, quick stories might help you with starting over your reading.

finally, you might try experiencing any of your books a different way. If you normally read physical, you might try an audio. If you normally audio, you might try reading on-line or a physical copy.

Anything to change up and see if that helps reset your love of reading. I really hope something helps!

Jessica Santini Hi!! I experimented a reading slump that went on for years, I would start books and not finish them. It was tragic. The book that took me out of it was, last month, Biscuit of Ming Sun Mi. A beautiful book that talks about the problem of not seen people in the society and it describes in a visual and fantastic way what people really feel happening to them non feeling seen. It’s a must read.

Hi, its so hard to get out of a slump!!
I usually start off with a short book I can finish in one sitting and start another one right away!
Some I read lately and LOVED:
- romance: the hating game (I know some hate it but I loved it) or literally anything by Ali Hazelwood
- really good novels: tom lake, a man called ove
- classics: anything by oscar wilde!! try bunbury (its so fun)
- some feminst thoughts: men explain things to me and other essays by rebecca solnit, she said, anything by roxane gray.

Hope this gives you some inspiration!

VASVI SHARMA | 3 comments I actually read this book the housemaid and i loved it's sequel even more...before moving further i picked out this book - The secret behind those presents as i brought it on a sale and though it was not at all popular and by an indie author named 'Mia Darkmoore', it was engaging enough to make me read it in just a day...Right after that, i read better than the movies which was so feel good, the chemistry b/w the characters was legit!!!

Aiswrya | 110 comments I agree with Trisha! What’s usually gotten me out of a slump is rereading an old favorite.
