Reading Slumps: What Are They?


So what exactly is a "reading slump?" Essentially, it's a time where one (particularly a reader) doesn't feel like reading. It's also often referred to as a "reading funk." (To review bookish terms, see the following post: Bookish Terms 101.)

If you're new to reading, you may not have experienced a reading slump quite yet. Or you may have just had your first reading slump. When writing up this, I just went over what felt like the last hump in a 2-month long reading slump.


Being in a reading slump can be one of the hardest things bookworms - and book dragons - have had to face multiple times. We want to read, and we want to read so badly. However, for whatever reason, reading just isn't happening. Whether it's the current pandemic or personal issues, you aren't able to bring yourself to pick up that book or open the audiobook/kindle app and read those books on your TBR.

Tune in to the posts for Jan. 25 & Jan. 26 for my own thoughts on reading slumps and for some reading slump tips.
