Reading Slump

Hello Everyone,

May brought many wonderful things for me.  I got to move back home for the summer after finishing my first year at college, and while I thought that coming home would leave me with tons of time for reading, I find that I have entered a terrible reading slump.

Normally I would just continue to watch tv all day and wait for the slump to pass on its own.  Usually I can get myself out of it by buying one good book and reading that in a day or two.  But with me not buying any books until I finish reading 5 I cannot do the second.  It has been over a week of tv and work so I find the first is not happening either.

If this problem ever happened in the past, I would then analyze why I was having this slump.  I am currently reading four books, three of which I am enjoying.  I should be excited to keep reading.  But no. I look at my shelf and have no urge.  I am even reading books from different genres, but nothing seems to interest me.

I did pre-order a book about a month ago with will be coming on May 24th; I am hoping that it will draw me out of this slump.  If that does not work I might have to lock myself down with one book and try to press through.  Finally if none of those work, I do have a pile of other books I have bought in the past I can try to start.  I will not be buying a new one though!

Anyways. Hopefully this slump will end soon.
Happy Reading
