    Ok but does anyone else have a problem where you cant get English books in your country and you have to order them online and by the time it arrives you’re want to read a different one bc when u ordered it u were in a fantasy mood and by the time it comes ur in the contemporary mood? 😂

      Or just google: title of the book + vk if you can read ebooks (and install any reader on your phone)

    I do pretty much all of this 😂 except for DNFing - if I paid for the book, I’m gonna finish reading it, no matter what

      I'm the same way...it took me a month to finish a book once. It wasn't bad. It just wasn't my flavor of entertainment. But once I start a book it WILL get finished! LoL

      I feel the same! If I’ve gotten it for a really cheap price or if it’s a library book then I will dnf it.

    Thank you for sharing this!! I'm not quite in a slump, but my brain is overflowing with many, many ideas for projects for booktube, blog, bookstagram, etc and I haven't been able to just sit down and FOCUS in my reading, so I think these will help a lot. Usually when I'm in a slump, I just don't push it and do other things, but right now the pressure to read is HUGE XD I'll try to do a healthy balance between reading & resting and choosing my books carefully!!

    And I should also DNF more often; I almost always feel like I need to finish a book once I have read 100+ pages of it, which is obviously nonsense.

    my problem is that i have to read some books for school that put me in a reading slump and dnf’ing them is not an option :( and i have so many books i’d rather read but i don’t want to start something new until i’ve finished the one for school

    • @leoraaileen
      @leoraaileen  4 роки тому +3

I will have to check out those audiobooks. I love listening to them. I also have BB free pre-ordered. It doesn't release here until next year

    (Not that you asked but I kind of know the answer) comics contain little bits and pieces of the full story across however many issues might be in the series. While Graphic Novels are a bit more like one and done and focus on one story. I had to google it to get the wording right🤣
    Thanks for the tips! I sometimes just watch tv or movies until I feel like reading again, and the recommendations were 💯💯

    „Fridging women“ comes from a comic book, I believe. It‘s about the death/abuse of women only being a way to further a guys character development or plot
