Bunni 🤍 Dating and dragons
Rolls and Rivalry

These are cute YA books by Kristy Boyce! I recommend all 3 in the series.


yingzhi李莹之ʕ•ᴥ•ʔ Defy the night (romantasy)
Picking daisies on Sundays (romance)
A study in drowning (romantasy)
Shields of sparrows (romantasy)
One dark window (romanatasy)
The Spellshop (romantasy)


Avalon (BACK TO SCHOOL!) (2 days left!) Anything Tahereh Mafi is really good! For more of a YA romance or rom com, Lynn Painter is sooooo good!!


⋆˚࿔ allison ˎˊ˗ The Daughter of the Pirate King triology is fantastic for a pirate romance, or The Shadows Between Us duology for a dark romance without smut! Both include romance btw! Also do you have any genres in mind?

message 10: by Siena (new)

Siena Kannenberg I'm currently reading Guess Again by Charlie Donlea and it has short chapters and is pretty fast-paced. Otherwise, any Freida mcfadden book is good for slumps, or assistant to the villain for fantasy


message 11: by Lylia (new)

Lylia Jude Okay ummm I'd say probably The Hunger Games, Powerless, Better Than the Movies, or The Do-Over!


message 12: by Lyra Kane (Cassie Hobbes) (last edited Aug 09, 2026 03:23PM) (new)

Lyra Kane (Cassie Hobbes) OOO! The Prison Healer I ALWAYS recommend! It's very fast paced, a good plot and VERY GOOD world building!!

And ofc The Inheritance Games and The Naturals are very fast paced!

ggragulcee A couple of days ago I was also in a huuugeee reading slump and I read Lightlark series by Alex Aster, the world building is very interesting, fmc Isla was so irritating, but still it was a nice read, and most importantly it helped me with my reading slump, hope it will work out for you too

message 30: by sabrina °❀⋆ (new)

sabrina °❀⋆ UHMMM TBH — I only recently started reading but … I honestly flew through The Intruder and The Divorce by Freida McFadden.

Those two were SOOO fun and filled with twists that actually brought me to lifeeee 😭📖 Like every few chapters I was sitting there thinking, “WAIT… WHAT?!” I love when a book keeps me guessing and makes me want to keep turning the pages just to find out what the heck is going on.

Safe to say … Freida McFadden has officially entered my “okayyy maybe I’m a bookworm now” era. 🐚📚


Aubrey (Taylors version) Caraval service and better than the movies books! My personal favorites


ANNIEEE (im pulling up, get in the car guys) ♪⋆˙⟡ any Rachel gillig books!


message 33: by Duncan (new)

Duncan Hockey romance should do the trick


message 34: by Saylor (new)

Saylor Sardine I like Natasha Preston’s thrillers
Or any thriller really
That usually helps me get out of a reading slump 😁
(Also I’m on the app so it won’t let me invite 😔😅)


Liliana (homesick for heaven) Anything by Melanie Dickerson or Clara Nielsen! They both write clean ya romance and fantasy books! Also, the Naturals by Jennifer Lynn Barnes is REALLY good!!


message 36: by Haneen (new)

Haneen the housmaid by freida mcfadden


message 37: by zee (new)

zee i suggest doing a standalone book to get out of a slump like i suggest a silly romance like better than the movies!! or try a thriller series like good girl’s guide to murder to snap you out of it

for me, it was off campus series that got me reading again but that’s after watching the show so idk how much it will work!!


message 38: by Jesse (new)

Jesse Boyd I know how negative a slump can feel! But I also know it takes just one read to get back into the swing of things. You need a light standalone! I recommend eleanor oliphant is completely fine!


⪩༏⪨ a u r e l i a ⪩༏⪨ -the thing about jellyfish
-never thought i'd end up here
-hello stranger
-happiness for beginners
-i kissed shara wheeler
-malibu rising
-the raven boys
-fable
-happy place
-fake skating

hope you get out of your slump!! Good luck <33


*•*Grayson*•* Dance of Thieves or Daughter of the pirate king are amazing and I read the whole series so quickly.


message 41: by Book Girlie (new)

Book Girlie Lynn Painter, Lianna Cincotti, Tahereh Mafi, Veronica Roth, and Alexandra Moody get me out of any slump! I'm also really enjoying Dance of Thieves so you could try that too! Good luck!


message 42: by Chloe (new)

Chloe Soputro anything by ann liang or boys of tommen by chloe walsh


message 43: by amina (new)

amina Any Lynn painter book, happy vibes (or just romance)


Readbyana (New bio) Whenever I’m in a reading slump, I try not to force myself to read anything for a few days. Like, I completely step away from reading and just watch some shows or movies instead. I don’t focus on the slump or think about when I’ll start reading again. Eventually, I naturally start getting the urge to pick up a book again 😭

Maybe you could try doing that too? I don’t know if it’ll work for you, but it has worked for me every time. And then when you feel like reading again, try picking up a short, quick book. I feel like that can really help you get back into reading. 💕

If it doesn't work then maybe try Mystery/thriller books? They also help..


message 45: by yas (new)

yas  reads if you want london rich girl vibes (specific ik), a series that will steal your heart and make you cry yourself to sleep you HAVE to read magnolia parks

it's toxic, it's dramatic, it's heartbreaking, it's INCOMPLETE (so be warned because i wasn't 😭)
💘✨💕💋


message 46: by KBlibrary (new)

KBlibrary if you want a NA romantasy then try Shield of Sparrows


message 47: by Eye (new)

Eye Dauntreed Easy fix, read Pale Fire

Nabokov has a way with words where they just fly off the page, and it becomes a special joy to read

Even if you find the novel's form weird it's worth a shot, and it was what got me back into reading!


message 48: by MelinaReads (new)

MelinaReads Okay if you want a fantasy you should try powerless series and shatter me series, they are some of my favorites and really fast paced.
If you want a contemporary romance, I think the best for when you are in a reading slump is "the love wager" by Lynn Painter (I read that in one sitting, the banter is amazing and it is not that long). I also recommend "twisted hate" by Ana Huang and "It ends with us", "verity" and "too late" by Colleen Hoover.
And if you want a mystery/thriller you could try "that's not my name" by Megan Lally, it's also YA and easy to read!
Hope you get out of your slump!!


message 49: by Bianca ❀ (new)

Bianca ❀ the 7 year slip is perfect for reading slump !!🍂


Kätuu (Maysilee's version) so i dont know have you read it but hunger games was ADDICTIVE like I sat doen and just read for like a week and finished all the books!!!
