Question #95: Stuck

[Faye]

After 4 years in this challenge, I've noticed that around this time of year, I get stuck. I don't wanna read. In the fall and winter I can't get enough but right now? Blah? I'm too busy playing Scramble with Friends (which, by the way,no true friend would introduce you to.) I've even taken baths without books, which is making me think I'm really in a rut this time.

Do you ever find yourself in a motivational reading rut? How do you get unstuck?

Reading ruts are a regular thing for me. I find the easiest fix is to pick up a new book until I feel like resuming the previous one. Or if that book's boring I'll pick up a new one. Sometimes it takes a while. I usually end up finishing them all in the end, but sometimes one will be put 'on hold' for the future. Goodreads is a godsend for the latter path, which previously would always end in the book being forever unfinished. It's always a bit sad when that happens.
