Reading slumps

 Let's just ignore the fact that I've neen gone for about a month now. 

I wanna talk about reading slumps today.

I was in a bit of a slump in January. Not unusual for me. Considering my mood and my mental state play a big factor in how much I read and my enjoyment of the book.

The end of September 2022, I started the worst reading slump of my life. I finished one book the last week of the month. It wasn't a long book. And I should've finished it so much quicker that I did. 

The slump continued through the whole month of October where I finished 15 books. I know 15 books in a month is really great for a lot of people. But my average reading in 2022 was 29 books completed in a month. My lowest reading month was February with 24 books. And highest reading month was June with 36. After October my monthly average dropped significantly. 

I tried everything I could think of to get me out of my reading slump sooner. Graphic novels. Novellas. Rereads. Out of my 15 books finished, I read 7 graphic novels and 4 rereads.

It took me until the middle of November to feel like I was no longer in a slump and back to my normal reading mojo. 

Here's hoping I never have another reading slump as bad as this one.

God bless and happy reading.
