The third book reading.📖👀

I didn't post it, but it's my third book this year.

I'm starting to read 'Contraindicated Child' little by little.

When I read for a long time, my eyes get tired.

it's getting wet and dry.

I'm having fun while taking a break (* '▽' *) ♡

I read it once as the sequel "White Devil's Cage"

As a paperback book comes out, "You are like a star."

"About a place in the Kinki region" with new elements added

I'm also waiting, so I have to read it quickly.

looking at it like this, my favorite books have horror elements

Maybe they prefer mystery-based and easy-to-read ones?

... Read moreホラーやミステリー要素を含む小説を読むとき、どうしても長時間に及んでしまいますよね。私も『禁忌の子』を読み始めてから、集中して読み続けると目の疲れを感じてしまい、しょぼしょぼしたり目が乾燥したりすることが多くなりました。そんなときは、無理せずに休憩を取りながら読むのが大切だと感じています。例えば、20分読んだら5分目を休ませる、軽く目のストレッチをするなど、自分なりのリズムを作ることで読書の質もアップします。 『禁忌の子』の続編である『白魔の檻』も以前に読んだことがありますが、文庫版の発売や関連作品『汝、星のごとく』『近畿地方のある場所について』が話題になっているのを知り、これからの読書がさらに楽しみになりました。これらの作品は単にホラーというだけではなく、ミステリーの謎解き要素も強く、読者を惹きつける魅力があります。 特に『近畿地方のある場所について』は新たな要素が加わり、2025年の角川文庫夏フェアでも注目されている作品です。こうしたシリーズを通して読むことで、物語の世界観や登場人物の深みが増し、読書体験がより充実したものになります。 私個人の読書スタイルとしては、ファンタジーよりもホラーやミステリー系の読みやすい作品が好みのようで、物語に適度な緊張感やスリルがあると読み進めやすいです。これからも無理せず自分のペースで、休憩を挟みながら素敵な本に出会いたいと思います。ぜひ皆さんも読み疲れに気をつけつつ、好きなジャンルの本を楽しんでくださいね。
