Not a Reading Slump but Definitely Not Good Vibes

[Nuisto]

Heya girlies!

I've recently been struggling with some things in my personal life and I am really wanting to read, but I can't get myself to. I'm currently reading The Will of the Many, and I am loving it and I wanna keep reading it, but my mental health can't cope with the more complex/heavier themes and pacing of the book right now.

Any advice?
(No need to worry about my mental health itself- I am using my support system)

DNF the book and read something familiar. It will help you feel better!!

Come back to the book when your mental heath is better!

I️ definitely agree with Maddie, pause the book that you’re on right now! Whenever I️ get into a slump or am in the middle of a book that I️‘m not enjoying, it may be annoying, but I always put it down and come back to it later. Try and read something shorter or even an audio book could help. Sometimes stopping and watching a tv show or movie is beneficial so that you don’t start to lose interest in reading altogether.
