Finally! I was wondering if this was ever going to regulate for me again! I love reading, and over the last few months I have done virtually none, which in itself is bizarre. It may be the fact that I have been overly busy, or trying to read books that are really just doing nothing in terms of reeling me in. I blame that for my despondency to read!
It all began with Suzanne Collins’s Hunger Games trilogy. Just like that, I was hooked again, but still trying to stretch out the time it takes me to finish them. Maybe that way the desire to read will not end when the books are over? Who knows, we will see, but I can see many books being read in my foreseeable future, as well as a few new ones, but they are not so much novels as biographies. I have a suspicion I will be revisiting the Potter universe soon enough, too, as well as Stephen King’s Darktower series… Any suggestions out there as to good authors and great reads?
Wish me luck, I am on this mission to consume as much as I can! What do you do to free yourself when you get into a reading slump?

If you liked Hunger Games and Harry Potter, you might like The Mortal Instruments series by Cassandra Clare. The narrator, Clary, is completely different from Katniss or Harry, but the books are tightly plotted with lots of action.

Hi there! Thanks for the recommendation, I should definitely try them, then! I have a friend who has been trying to get me to read them for the longest time. I suppose now is as good a time as any!
