BOOK CHAT: Reading Slumps: Causes, Cures & Comfort reads

from Underlined And Annotated · host Rebecca

This week on Underlined & Annotated, we're talking all about reading slumps - what they are, why they happen, and how to get out of them without forcing yourself to read. From burnout and mood reading to seasonal reading habits, book hangovers, and DNF guilt, we're diving into the realities of when reading suddenly starts to feel like a chore instead of an escape.    We'll also share, our favorite slump cures, including comfort reads, switching genres, audiobooks, rereads, taking breaks, and learning to read with the seasons instead of against them. If you've ever stared at your TBR with zero motivation, this episode is for you.
