      tiltingpoppies if the voice of the person is boring I get sleepy and stop listening. I always check the samples to see if I like the voice before getting them from the library. hope that helps

    Ugh I just got into a reading slump and it's so frustrating, I don't feel like myself ! At first I thought I just wasn't in the mood for the book I was reading but even when I tried to pick up something else I still didn't feel like reading it... I feel so guilty when I don't read, it's like I'm abandoning my friends xD Thanks for the tips (even though this video is a year old haha), they sound great

  • @jennifervennall8679

  • @enchantedtomes1623
    @enchantedtomes1623 Před 8 lety

    This is a great video and I really enjoyed it!!!!! I have never listed to an audio book before but that sounds like a great idea if I am in a reading slump!!!!! I also really like the idea of listening to an audio book while coloring!!!!! I love this idea because it combines my love of books and my love of coloring!!!!! I agree that contemporaries are a great idea for reading slumps!!!!! They are light and fun and don't take too long to read!!!!! Please do a video on books that you have read that have gotten you out of a reading slump!!!!! I would love to watch that video!!!!! I also totally agree with you about embracing your reading slump because if you fight it you can totally make it worse, lol!!!!! Been there done that!!!!! Sometimes you just need a break from reading and that is totally okay!!!!! I love your advice about bringing a book with you wherever you go!!!!! I do that and I love it!!!!! When I forget my book at home I get so sad, lol!!!!! Btw, I love your hair and your outfit!!!!! So cute!!!!! :)

  • @DontStopReadin
    @DontStopReadin Před 8 lety +1

    First, your hair looks amazing styled this way!!
    Also love the tips especially for slow readers. That's something nobody tends to address. Sometimes I feel like I'm in a slump when I'm really not bc I'm just reading slow.

  • @leefluty6141

  • @BookishTaylor
    @BookishTaylor Před 8 lety

    I am currently trying to find a way out of my reading slump right now so thank you for this video! I always kind of feel bad for not having a book open when I have time to be doing so, but I just can never force myself to read. Gonna embrace the fact that I am in a slump and going to binge watch Pretty Little Liars!

  • @annaalexis5492
    @annaalexis5492 Před 8 lety

    I love this video! Reading slumps are the worst. I'm going to try reading an audio book the next time I'm in a reading slump. I usually use them to read books for school and it is really helpful.

  • @AriannaMae
    @AriannaMae Před 8 lety

    I haven't tried listening to audiobooks yet, but after what you said in the video I might try them out :) I would love a contemporary recommendations video!

  • @JordynLaRee
    @JordynLaRee Před 8 lety

    I so agree about audio books I didn't used to think they were for me till I realized that I could get up and do things while also getting through my TBR. I usually have an actual book and then an audio book on the side for when I can't read the real book. You can get twice as much reading done that way.

  • @EmileeBreeana19

    YES, I listen to audiobooks while colouring too! I didn't know anyone else was doing it :) And I've been in a reading slump for quite a while as I've had exams, and I actually do listen to Throne of Glass right now, it had an ideal pace for me :)

  • @savispice23
    @savispice23 Před 8 lety

    I really loved the idea of coloring while listening to an audio book because I get distracted easily which is why I've never been interested in trying audio books. But i just happen to have 2 complicated coloring books which would could be put to good use! Thank you!

  • @rachelmaria5185

  • @AjaReads
    @AjaReads Před 8 lety

    These tips were super helpful!!

  • @bridgidthepirateelf4135

    I always use audio books or I have my dad read the book with me if I'm reading for school, it really helps especially if I can't handle what the book is talking about and the questions get done faster. I love audio books if I have to clean my room. If I'm in a reading slump, I will go over and pick up Wicked by Gregory Maguire and just reading the first chapter again gets me out of my reading slump. In 7th grade I had to read Romeo+Juliet for school and it put me off reading for a month. Then I picked up Wicked and I have loved reading even more since.

    I was in a reading slump for like 5 months. It's summer so thankfully I have time to read. I'm slowly but surely getting out of the reading slump. Though now I'm reading ACOMAF which although it is fantasy it is very addicting.

    I don't like audio books cause I always lose the concentration. But when I don't read I also color in my colorbooks. Been coloring since last year:) I do read every day but when I take small breaks I color:) It is a relaxing thing to do.

  • @katrinatruksne
