Speaking my mind yet again 🥺🙌🏻

I’ve been in THE WORST slump ever. Although I gave up giving myself a hard time about it since I know what random shit goes on in my life, it still hurts to remember how much joy reading brought to me at some point.

One good thing is I’ve stopped buying books since I don’t read haha.

Hoping we all get back to our old love after this pandemic shit 💜

Indeed! We're already so frustrated about not reading that giving ourselves more grief is absolutely useless and probably putting unnecessary pressure.

Smart idea — I think that buying books and reading them are two different hobbies lol. 😉

Yes! I’ve been in a slump since about September and am only just starting to pick things up again. I’ve re-read soo many old favourites (including children’s stuff like the famous five!) and it was exactly as you’ve said. Thank you for this 🥰

Reading slumps are so annoying! I'm glad you're finding ways to read again — children's books are an excellent way to get back into reading. The Famous Five books are quick and interesting reads too, great tip! 💭
