I’m just in a bad reading slump currently and trying to get out of it. Usually when this happens I would take a break then read something again but this time I feel like I don’t need a break from reading, I simply need a book so striking that it will fully engross me. Looking forward to your suggestions!
It depends on what types of books you like.
For sci fi I would recommend The Murderbot Diaries, Bobiverse series, Children of Time, and Gideon the Ninth.
For fantasy I would recommend The Nightrunner series, The Farseer trilogy, The Scholomance series, and A Conjuring of Ravens.
For something weird and gripping I would recommend Perilous Times by Thomas D Lee, absolutely awesome modern imagining of Authurian legend, and those damn Saxons!
For mind blowing, There Is No Antimemetics Division. Nothing I can say will do it justice, now that I can’t unread it I envy you. Well and truly worth it, absolutely gripping, such a cool book.
Also, consider reading an audiobook. It is less demanding on your visual processing which can help if you are struggling to actually read the text. It works for me because I can speed it up to double so my rampant ADHD brain doesn’t get distracted because it is having trouble keeping up.
Solid recommendations!
Tbh all your recommendations sound like something I’d be willing to try. I can read a wide variety of genres and I’m open to try new ones. The Murderbot Diaries and The Farseer trilogy are on my tbr! Most of all now I’m intrigued about There Is No Antimemetics Division and it’s quite short, might just be what I need now.
I would strongly recommend There Is No Antimemetics Division. Such a good one shot, fairly short, and absolutely mind blowing.
