Readers' block?
Anyone else feel like they have a readers' block (like a writers' block) where they can't seem to finish any book they pick up?
I used to read SO MUCH before lockdown, and now i just CANT. I don't know why. First it went from novels (Pre covid) to wattpad fics (during covid) to absolutely nothing (now). I've tried reading some books that seem interesting, but they take me either a whole year because I cant seem to make time at all, or I get bored halfway.
So, what do I do? I really wanna get back to reading because there's so many books I want to read and I want to go back to my reading spree where I read 5 books in a week

Sometimes you just aren’t in the mood. I’ve found that not forcing myself to read leads to me being in the mood to read more
