Reading a book you don’t want to be reading is like dating a partner you don’t care to be in a relationship with - every interaction feels like a chore

I used to feel obligated to stick it out. But over time, I went from reading 1+ book per day to hardly anything at all. Now I let myself abandon books, or read 10 books at the same time, or read terrible trashy books instead of good ones. And although it feels a bit stressful, it has me back to reading again :)

Can very much relate to this. I’d put off reading altogether because I was putting off finishing that one book. I still feel bad about leaving some books unfinished but at least it doesn’t stall my reading overall

Yep! Life's too short. I try to think of it like, the book certainly doesn't get offended if I don't finish reading it 😆 So I don't need to let it guilt me into finishing.
