last book i read was salems lot a couple months back

I know what you're saying, I get that brain fog too sometimes. You feel like you just can't get started with books. It's low-key something I struggle with so I start multiple books at the same time. One of them ends up catching my interest so I continue with that one

Funny lol that's the last one I downloaded and was planning to read next

Get your lazy ass to a library

honestly, i’m gonna give this a shot. i’ve always been a one book kinda guy, but if i can pick up multiple books and see what hooks me first, then in theory that can give me the ability to make choices much easier…i hope it’ll work out for me thank you

it’s pretty good! the characters feel like cardboard cutouts at times, but overall i enjoyed it

well yea i deal with that too but i guess lately the newest books i pick up, i tend to read right away

lol that too, lately i've been reading books under 300 pages

Finished “Dopamine Nation” by Anna Lembke last week. A great read with some good insights about addiction. Really made me reflect on my own battle with addiction

this happens to all readers and there are times you just don't feel like reading

what I find helpful is trying different genres and always having books that excite me on my TBR list

also having a dedicated time and place to read, if not at home then even going to the park with the goal of reading and only bringing a book

if i may ask, what are your reading habits like? when and where do you usually like to read?

not that intense tbh, I probably read like 30 minutes before bed every night and if I can find the time 30 minutes sometime during the day

some days I won't read at all and some days I'll read for two hours straight

consistency is the key tho, around 30-45 minutes a day can easily get you to a book a week

whats a reading challenge i can do in 2025

Read one book in a genre you've never explored before

yeah that tends to happen, personally it ends when i find a book that catches my interest for whatever i’m feeling at the moment

Havent Read a novel since the summer man I need to get back on it. Been exclusively reading non fiction

nothing wrong with letting it breathe for a second, reading like anything other entertainment should be done for pleasure first and foremost

that being said either copping new books (I only thrift now bc it helps me not go too crazy) and watching booktubers get me back in the game usually

~300 pages into 11/22/63 and I’m LOVING it so far

autobiography of malcom x
piranesi
slaughter-house five

and i still got like $1.50 left

would you recommend for someone who doesn't have a strong interest in (or deep knowledge of) the JFK assassination?

1000%!! I wasn’t a Stephen King fan and I didn’t know/care much about the JFK assassination apart from random documentaries I’ve seen growing up but it ended up being my favorite read of the year and a new one of my favorites of all time.

Good to know!

just finished it and damn wasn't convinced at first but James by Percival Everett is special

i dropped it because i felt like i would’ve understood the more subtler moments involving Huck early on if i had read the OG book. but from what i read, i loved it!
