Normally when I pick up a new Murakami I devour it in one sitting. This time round, I can't seem to get caught up in the story. I know that he's written about The Town before, so there is a familiarness to his new book, but I don't think that is the problem. Especially, since I've picked up other books and can't seem to enmeshed in their stories. I think it's just me at the moment. I'm hoping it goes away soon, because I am missing reading. So, I'm going to grab a magazine and read that - sometimes just reading something helps flip the switch and I'm able to get my reading mojo back. I've already tried re-reading an old favorite book, but that didn't work either, so, fingers crossed this works.
Hope you are having a great morning! Happy reading!

It's so hard when you can't get into any book! Reading is such an escape for me. But when even favorite books aren't working...I hate that. Sometimes that's when I turn to a nonfiction book. Or a very lighthearted rom-com. I hope your reading mojo returns soon and you find a book that really pulls you in!
Lark, thanks so much! I'm glad to know I'm not the only one who deals with this. Ugh. It really is the worst, because books are where I turn to all the time. Nonfiction might be a good idea for me. Thank you!!
