what do you do to get out of a reading slump?
Listen to audiobooks and wait it out, I'm not sure how effective it is but oh well😂
I read it with a goal. Like 60 pages a day until I feel myself wanting to read more. That always seems to work.
@@user-my5pv6lq9n ohh good idea!
@@Violet_Purple688 that’s a good method!
Give myself a break from reading. The first book I pick up after the break will be the book I'm MOST excited to read and KNOW I will love.
I'm a mood reader so I find picking up a book difficult
I feel this!
I'm a mood reader so it's usually a book a day or nothing for months. 😅
Sometimes a quick, lighthearted fanfic or novella helps.
Lol REAL
This is exactly why I love audiobooks! Sitting down and reading makes me so tired to the point that I lose interest in the book. It can also be difficult to even find the time to sit down to read. I usually listen to an audiobook while doing chores.
@@milanova5061 that’s great!
I love how creative you're getting with these book challenges!😄🤍
YAY!
Heyyy Jaime!!! I'm so happy you posted!!!❤
YAY HI❤️
Yes! Another video!. Now you have gotten me excited for Six Crimson Cranes.
YAY excited for you!
Good morning Jamie 😊😊😊
This is the perfect video for me rn
Good morning!! So glad ❤️
Sorry for being late this week 😅 I really enjoyed it alot, Thank you ❤
YAY! Glad you enjoyed ❤️ never too late!
Loved the concept of this video and also congrats on 50K!
Thank youuuuu!❤️
I’m sending you love❤❤❤
❤️❤️❤️
I just keep trying different books until I find one that clicks. Usually in a favorite genre.
YES! I wish I could stop books partway through bc this sounds great
Your kitty is so adorable ❤
RIGHT? ❤️
I am so happy that you liked Six Crimson Cranes!!! I love this duology so much, this world is so magical ❤
I can’t wait to read the next book!
I`m not leaving comments often, but your videos are always a huge comfort boost for me. Thank you
Omg thank you so much!! Appreciate the comment today ❤️❤️
It's the opposite for me, I've been on a roll reading wise! I read A Study in Drowning, Funny Story, Once Upon a Broken Heart, the sequel and Butcher & Blackbird back to back and I've never read this fast. Five Broken Blades is next and I feel like this reading burst is not ending anytime soon!
Omg that’s AMAZING!! How did you like a study in stowing? It’s still on my shelf 😂
@@jaimefok I gave it 3 stars! I liked some aspects (the setting, the themes explored) and others not so much (underdeveloped characters and plotlines, plot holes). A lot of people say it's dark academia but I disagree. It's more gothic IMO. And there's a big focus on trauma and anxiety. Overall, a lot more deep and serious of a read than I initially thought, which is not a bad thing.
I loved Six Crimson Cranes. 🥰
IT WAS SO GOOD
Immediately got six crimson cranes after seeing you rave it! I just found my recent five star read - daughter of no worlds trilogy! Give it a try sometime 😊
That’s awesome!!
I’ve heard a lot about that one- I wasn’t the biggest fan of the serpent duology by her- think I’d still like it?
@@jaimefokyea I remember you didn’t like serpent of the wings. I think no harm giving the first book a try ☺️ the daughter of no worlds trilogy is free on kindle unlimited~ maybe you can explore the possibility of making a video on KU too if you decide to subscribe? 😆
You should definitely read Legendborn soon! I just finished it and it got me out of my own reading slump! Highly recommend 💙
It’s so high on my TBR!
Ahhh I’m so happy that you read Six Crimson Cranes!! I hope you read The Dragon Promise when you get the chance 😊 Would love to hear your thoughts about it!
Just ordered it hehe
I'm currently half way through the second book of Six crimson cranes (The dragon's promise) and I'm loving it so far just as much as I loved the first book
OH YAY! I need to get a copy asap
I need to read Butcher & Blackbird 😤
Do it!!
Reading slumps are so hard! I haven’t read much in days but all my Libby holds are coming in at the same time 😅
Oh noooo!! 😂
I swear Libby does that on purpose. It will be nothing for a while and you are scrounging for books to read, and then all of a sudden you are bombarded with every book you have on hold at the same time.
I will say as the one person who said Legendborn I'm not upset you chose Six Crimson Cranes since I've also read everything within that universe and have loved them all 😂
😂😂
Reading slumps are such a struggle. It’s hard to know what book is actually going to be good enough to get you out of the slump.
I’m currently in a slump from reading a 5 star book and not finding anything that is living up to that one. (But maybe I should check out Six Crimson Cranes)
Also, you should save Life’s Too Short for the winter Holiday season. It’s set around that time and would just add to the coziness. I really enjoyed it and almost teared up a few times while reading it.
Definitely check out six crimson cranes, I loved it so much!
OHHHH ok will consider saving it haha- it’s so high on my TBR, I might get impatient waiting 😂
when i was in reading slump i just litteraly cant read anything for weeks so girll! i think you did pretty good job
LOL TY ❤️
❤❤❤
I have no clue how to get myself out of my reading slump, I also binged the latest season with a friend this weekend lol
With a friend sounds so fun!!
❤
a fate inked in blood put me into a reading slump too😅still in it send help lol
I was SO BORED 😂
Try James by Percival Everett :) I read it in one day… that day was yesterday lol😂
I’ll look it up!
I loved 6 crimson cranes! It made me cry 😭 the sequel isn't as good tho so that was pretty disappointing for me
Omg I loved it so much! I’ve heard so many mixed reviews for the sequel 😭 but I’ll still read it haha
Personally, when I am in a reading slump I give myself the time to recover and do other activities and then usually I pick up a book with many short stories, like a Raymond Carver book
I love that!
Love the video! Where did you get the bookshelves in the background of time stamp 6:36?
From wayfair!!
@@jaimefok thank you
I'm glad you got out of your reading slump. And that it was Six Crimson Cranes that got you out of it. I have the book, but have yet to read it.
Earlier this year, I was in a reading slump. I tried to get out of it by reading cozy, light books. Then I read The Last Tale of the Flower Bride by Roshani Chokshi. It is the opposite of cozy. It really drew me in. I was invested in the characters. I realized that i need to read intense books that engross me. I can mix them with the cozy books. But just reading cozy books doesn't work for me
Oh that’s great!! Hope you enjoy six crimson cranes when you get to it
@@jaimefok Thank you
i immediately followed you on goodreads because it sounds like we have the same taste in books! i also don’t mind spice, but would prefer less spice in my books. have you read any books from katherine center? i was recently in a slump and her two most recent books got me out of feeling slumpy.
YAY! That’s awesome ❤️
I actually haven’t read a Katherine center but JUST recently purchased one!
@@jaimefok i was not expecting such a quick reply lol! which book is it? i’m excited to see your review!
@@jess8824 caught me at a good time 😂 it’s Hello Stranger!
@jaimefok ooh I had a fun time with that one! hope you enjoy it too!
For I read a different genre like nonfiction reading celebrity memoirs or mysteries
Ohhh interesting!!
I liked 5 survive more than AGGGTM
Ok good to know, it’s still on my shelf 😂
