    As someone that works in a bookstore: Young Adult feels weird sometimes because technically the age range is 13-18. Which is very broad and a 13 year old is definitely not on the same level as an 18 year old.. but it is what it is 😭

    @christyxmuk 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

    3:12 that's so true!! once i pick up the book, i read for 1 hour+ but then actually picking up the book is so difficult... the book is by my bed side table and i know i can just reach for it but something in my head always says just go on your phone instead 😒 its not even like my book is boring either! my book is interesting and im liking it too 😔 (it's archer's voice)

    Up until September last year I was in a reading slump for around 2 years where I didn't read hardly any books. Last year from September I started reading again and I managed to read 41 books in 2023. I think the best thing with a reading slump is to let it pass, they are horrible things to go through but like everything else it will pass 💕

    • @abbeyfrancis4390

      Same! But I only properly started again in December and I’ve finished 5 books since.

    Rachel you need to read the dark verse series by runyx. I was literally in a slump and now I can't stop thinking about the first two books. IT'S REALLY GOOD.

  • @AshleyJade18
    @AshleyJade18 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    "Everyone's slump is different" ... True, because how you described your 'slump' sounds like my regular reading habits... For Example: It takes me 10 ish days to read a standard rom com or thriller = 10 hours on my Kindle and i am soooo content with that. 😍💖

  • @abbeyfrancis4390
    @abbeyfrancis4390 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Girl you gotta get out the slump, Magnolia parks is out on the 13th! ❤ (I started them cause of you and I read all 4 in January 😂)

    • @abbeyfrancis4390
      @abbeyfrancis4390 8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Love that you listen to audiobooks too! I know people that are like ‘that’s not actually reading, that’s cheating’ etc. but that means I can physically read and also listen in the car and at work

  • @LibrariesandLattes
    @LibrariesandLattes 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    I was the opposite, I felt like I was getting into an audiobook slump! I started like 3 audiobooks and couldn’t stick with any. I started a memoir though (We Were Dreamers by Simu Liu) and it’s doing the trick so far!!

    I love incorporating both the audio and physical reading experience into my books when I can! It does something to my brain that helps me focus & remember more of what I’m reading, and I just feel like it makes my reading so much more enjoyable!

    I read the first 2 books and first 2 novellas in the shatter me series in the first 2 weeks of January, and then I’ve attempted a few times to get into As Good as Dead -holly jackson, and I just don’t have that “I want to read this” feeling with it, trying to figure out what to do now 🙈

  • @elyseirwin2587
    @elyseirwin2587 8 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I’ve been reading “Binding 13” based on your recommendation from a past video. I am loving it so far and haven’t found a book I’ve been this interested in for a while. Thank you for this great suggestion. I absolutely love your videos and get so excited every time you share a new video.
    In your opinion were all the tommen series books good? And have you read any more books by Chloe Walsh

  • @gracepower180
    @gracepower180 8 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Ugh I’ve been feeling like this for about a week now! I want to read and I enjoy it when I do it, but I’ve been ‘avoiding’ reading and filling my time with other things. It’s so frustrating! I don’t know what’s happening 😂

  • @Showtunediva

    I’ve been in a reading slump since October and it’s so bad 😢😢 usually I read 8-12 books every month but since October I couldn’t read more than 2 books a month so that’s making my depression so much worse. Thank u for this video I really needed it ❤

  • @Growingroot_allotment
    @Growingroot_allotment 8 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I think rather than putting more pressure on yourself and possibly pushing yourself in to burn out 6 am is early enough just give yourself permission to start whatever you have planned after reading after 6 am . Just give something up or push it back or half the time s your doing things rather than making it even harder 💕

    I’m just starting to get out of a slump I’ve been in since late October of 2023. I’ve wanted to read again but nothing was catching my attention. Like you said it’s been nice to not force myself to do it and that helped me so much! I’m now wanting to read and I love it!

    @wiktoriawiktoria0912 8 หลายเดือนก่อน

    i think the fragile threads of powers is supposed to be more of a continuation (with a little twist and new characters etc) to the shades of magic trilogy rather than a spin off but i might be wrong
    but i’m soooo excited to read it!!!
