[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is your definition of reading “high brow” stuff? Maybe consider that you’re burned out (many of us are these days) and don’t have the energy to read a novel that explores the alienation endemic in our society or a history of Winston Churchill. Read a romance novel or a mystery.

And if you don’t want to, it’s fine. TikTok for 20 minutes is as valid a way to spend your leisure time as reading for 20 minutes. [/quote]

This is good advice. I have been mentally exhausted lately and I am part of a book club and I just have lost interest in some of the esoteric books even asked to read. I just want to pick up a David Baldachi book and relax.  I have been planning to take a break from my book club because I’ve stopped enjoying books. So I want to pick up fluff and enjoy books again.

I also can find myself scrolling through TikTok or Instagram mindlessly. I have to force myself to put my phone down and pick up my Kindle. I’d like audiobooks, because I can listen to them when I take a walk[/quote]
