CALL ESTROGEN HTML/CSS THE WAY IT DEVELOPS YOUR FRONT END
physically go to your local library at least once. seriously.
look around. find a random book with a cover that catches your attention. read the description. read the first page. if you like the sounds of it, borrow it and take it home to read. borrow a handful of books even.
if a book loses your interest, drop it. if a book grips onto you, ride that wave.
i've struggled to read recreationally for years despite having read so much as a kid. a lot of us are frozen by the seemingly infinite choices. even when we buy books to take home, we don't read them because which book is worth reading first? we don't have to decide, we have it right here in our bookshelves, we have an eternity of never deciding.
in this past month, i have read five books, most of them i've never heard of when i spotted their cover at the library. most of them, i've ended up loving. the due date of library books maintains the ability to read a book so i can return them to the library and leave the library with more books. an even better incentive than borrowing ebooks, because i actually have to leave the house and not be a hermit.
so if you used to enjoy reading but struggle with it now, ignore the book recs you hear. go to the library, come across a book that piques your interest, and read one page after another until you either lose interest or finish the book.
then it's onto the next one.

ring with a painting of an eye, watercolor on ivory framed by split pearls; american c. 1900s.
“Life begins at ejaculation on the small of one’s back. Who are we to play God? We must let gravity take its course. Semen is a living, squirming thing, and any wipe-down after a completed sexual act amounts to homicide.” Ivey added that anyone found to have handed women a towel to mop up the semen would be prosecuted as an accessory to murder.
