Many people find themselves struggling to get into reading, even if they love the idea of books and stories. I can totally relate to this feeling of being unable to dive into a book, which sometimes leads to frustration or guilt—especially with the popularity of #booktok and the pressure to keep up with the latest book-related trends online. One thing that has helped me is acknowledging that not every book is for everyone. For instance, some books, like those authored by Lee Strobel or Flynn, might have a more specific style or topic that doesn’t resonate immediately. It’s okay to put a book down and try something different until you find what truly grips your interest. Another helpful tip is to make reading a part of your daily routine in manageable doses. Even setting aside just 10-15 minutes a day can build momentum. Audiobooks and book summaries are also great alternatives that keep you engaged without the pressure to sit down with a physical copy. Engaging with communities under hashtags like #reading, #booktok, #books, and #bookish on social platforms can provide motivation and recommendations suited for different tastes. Sharing your struggles or favorite finds can make the experience more social and less daunting. Remember, reading is a personal journey and should be enjoyable, not a chore. Finding the right book, format, and reading habit for yourself can transform your experience tremendously.
