same!!!! I am in a reading slump too ;-; have you read Circe by Madeline Miller? I have been reading it and so far it's good
I love everything Jennifer Lynn Barnes, and I Am Malala is just a beautiful book.
I don’t know if you’ve read it but the Shatter Me series by Tahereh Mafi is great. It’s romance/dystopian. I’m currently on book 4.
I would say The Naturals. It is fast paced and I finished it in a day
last yr i was in a slump and i read the 'Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo' and the 'Spanish Love deception'. Those two made me fall in love with reading again.
any lynn painter novel, also tell me three things and what to say next by julie buxbaum
I was in a huge slump, but some books that helped me get it back were books that in my mind, feels "cozy". I've read "Hot Chocolate on Thursday" by Michiko Aoyama, and "Welcome to the Hyunam-dong Bookshop" by Hwang Bo-Reum, and both definetly became favorites of mine. Now, I'm reading "The blue sisters" by Coco Mellors, way more dramatic, but pretty easy reading for me, I'm loving it, even with the delicated topics. I don't know how to describe it but it kinda feels more down to earth and "real life" you know? I'm loving these types of books lately.I also read "One True Loves" by Taylor Jenkins-Reid. Altough it seem a more dramatic book, it felt really easy to read, and I've read it pretty fast for my standards. "It ends with us" is also in my list this year, but I feel like this one its outside the pattern of the rest of the books I mentioned, I've read it because my sister loved it, and the movie was about to be released, but I really enjoyed anyways hahahaha
All of Ali Hazelwood's books are really easy to get into. Very romance and trope heavy, but also a guide into learning more about different career paths in STEM and other industries. They are relaxing reads.If you're looking for something more thematic, I would go with anything Sally Rooney!
