i have been trying to get back into reading for a while, i used to do it nonstop in middle/high school but fell off after i graduated. i picked up Thursday Murder Club randomly at a bookstore a few weeks ago and finally sat to read it this week and it’s really doing it for me right now. i don’t have much time to read anymore with college and work but i think this will be the first book i have finished since i graduated high school 😅 so, i’m curious. what books randomly re-sparked your love for reading?
Was in a mega slump after getting a degree that involved reading hundreds of pages a day of medieval lit and a mentality that I should only read „serious“ texts.
Wyrd Sisters by Terry Pratchett broke the seal. It was just so funny and entertaining, and I was genuinely interested to find out what would happen.
I think for people who were big childhood readers, finding something in a genre or style similar to what you found absorbing as a kid can really do the trick.
