@PigtailPrincess

Oohhh, ruts are never fun. I'm sorry to hear you're going through this. Maybe rereading something you really enjoyed before or something light and fluffy would help? I call them comfort reads and they are my go-to when I hit ruts. Actually, I recently noticed I'm slipping into one myself and am going through my previously read list and doing rereads of books that catch my attention. A lot of the books I put as favorite on my reader profile are snarky and fun, though they are all either RH or gay romace. If you don't mind those genres, you should look into them; they might help. Hope things pick up for you soon.

I was like that too! I fought so hard against getting a kindle but now I love it. I still buy physical books ans would say that I read about 50/50 between physical and digital books.

@kryssi01 my favourite author by far is Everly Raine. She has a few different series going. I definitely recommend the Missouri Daddies series if you like sweet with just a little spice. (https://www.authoreverlyraine.com/) Her site contains a complete list of her books plus a few extras. 

There is Kate Oliver, Ruth Kennedy and Laylah Roberts, to name a few. I've read a few of the books from each of those authors and found the stories to be enjoyable. 

Happy Reading!!! 📚

Age:

39

Favorite book as an adult:

Legends and Lattes?  I haven't been reading as much as I'd like to, honestly.

Favorite book as a child:

Wuthering Heights or Little Women

Favorite genre:

Currently, I like cozy anything.

Favorite troupe:

Uh...oh, I do really love guard dog and master tropes, particularly if they both are aware of and lean into it.  

Least Favorite types of main characters:

2 dimensional ones.  Make me feel something, love, hate, angry, anything but indifference.

One book that deserved a sequel:

I dunno, honestly, I don't think sequels are a necessity and sometimes ruin characters because the author was forced to write more books.  Or the author writes themselves into a corner.  

Do you read physical books or digital:

Digital

How much do you read a week:

Not nearly enough.
