Sometimes you need to be in a reading slump to figure out what you really want to read. It sucks to be in a reading slump but once you get out of it you feel like and happy to fine a book to get you out of it. One book that got me out of one and I really haven't been on one for a while now. The book was called "The Seven husband of Evelyn Hugo". Happy reading when you get there

im reading that book currently and it helped me get out of a reading slump!

the way i get out of a reading slump is to force myself to pick up my book, and then i slowly get caught in it and keep reading!

I was in a terrible reading slump all through February, March, April, May, and most of June. It was awful. I only read five books in those five months. I kept somehow grabbing the slowest books in existence. Most of them were really good, but it killed me to find reading so difficult. Thankfully, I was able to snap out of it once I found some faster books that were easier to read and sucked me in more. So I’ve been able to read 8 books since June 25 (it’s July 19), which for me, ain’t bad at all.

Reading slumps are the worst! 🥲 But I’m so glad you are out of it and reading faster paced, and more engaging books! 🙌🏽📚 that is so great! ✨

I’m in a really bad reading slump bc the book I was reading was going super super super slow and I started reading it bc my teacher recommended it bc she loved it so much. I’ve started a new book that will most likely get me out of my slump so I’m super happy rn

I'm so happy to see that other people have a reading routine similar to mine. Unfortunately, as time goes by, it seems that reading has become a competition. I feel good knowing that many people have the same reading rhythm. ps: amazing video :)

Awe I’m so glad! And thank you so much! 🙌🏽 And yes I agree, that there can be a pressure in the reading community sometimes to read more and that if you aren’t reading a book a day it’s not enough! It’s always good to take a step back and realize that having a love for reading can mean not reading for two years and then picking up a book, it can mean reading 5 pages a day or yes it can mean reading 200 pages a day if someone has the time. But there should never be competition ❤️🥰 happy reading 📚✨

I appreciate the honesty! Some days I only read one page as well and I'm just like wth lol

Well. That’s more than I can read in a reading slump when I don’t have school and have to read

I have been in a reading slump on and off for like 3 years or so. Basically since a little before the pandemic. I didn't read a lot before it but I could usually work my way through about 4-5 books a year. ✨depression✨ and work/college has made it hard to get as into reading as I was when in high school. I recommend the 7-Husband of Evelyn Hugo (anything by the author is great), The Hate you Give series, and reading childrens fantasy books. Or just smaller novellas.

I don’t know if it’s count as a « reading slump », but I just read really really slow.. like before I could read a 500 pages book in 2 day, but now I can’t read a chapter In less than hours. I can read 1 page in 20min.. I’m just stuck but I really want to read too! Idk what to do…

Yes I feel like that is a reading slump for sure! And I’m sorry you are feeling it right now 🥲 what helps me is not feeling pressure to read or finish a specific book. Trying different books and also listening to an audio book if you can sometimes helps break through the slump! ❤️ best of luck and hopefully you will be back to reading 500 pages in no time! 🫶🏽📚

I kinda don't understand reading slump. If reading makes you bored just don't read, don't make reading sound like something you need to do. I'm not saying this to author of the video btw just like general statement. No hate

That totally makes sense and I think personally I feel like I get into a reading slump when I read a book that I’m not really loving but I make myself read it anyway. Which I am trying to not feel guilty about DNFing a book because you are totally right, we shouldn’t feel pressure when we are just reading for fun! ❤️📚✨
