I'm in possibly the worst reading slump ever. I'm in California visiting my sister and brother in law and I cannot wait to visit Barnes and Noble because I've looking forward since I've stepped foot in America 🇺🇲🤩

I just finished a thriller called First Lie Wins for the readathon, and I gave it 5 stars. I feel like it'd be good to get you out of a sump because it's a QUICK quick read, that will have you flipping pages and your heart racing! Very twisty! I highly recommend it.

🍒I feel like thrillers are always a great choice to get out of a reading slump, one of my favorites is Murder on the Orient Express because I love the time period and Agatha Christie was just so genius with her mysteries! Also, love that this dropped as the readathon ended, it just extended the fun!

I added several to my TBR list, thanks! I know a lot of people really enjoy The Midnight Library, but I personally enjoyed Matt Haig's The Humans so much more. It was funny and made you think about some of the actions/things that may not have a good reason for -- but we do them because that's what we as a species have always done. Or our obsessions from an "outside view". And yet, even with our many flaws, we are loveable. None of this reveals anything about the book, these are just my own personal reflections after reading the book.

For those in a reading slump, I always tend to recommend fun and light books, like you just said. Right now I am reading The Husbands by Holly Gramazio, and it's so fun! It's basically the story of a young woman coming home from a night out to find a man in her house. The man acts like he knows her and wears a ring. She quickly realizes he is her husband. At some point he climbs up in the attic. Another man comes down. Truns out that every time her husband gets in the attic, another husband reappears, along with another life (her phone content changes, her physical appearance changes slightly, so does her apartment). Can't wait to see how this story will unfold. Last week I finished reading My Husband after you recommended it in your last video and I LOVED IT!!!!! A strong 5 stars! And like you said, there were episodes in which I kinda recognized myself LOL. And the twist at the end, just scrumptious! 🍒

The whole way through I was thinking of books I thought Alexandra might enjoy, so I thought I'd leave them here incase anyone wants some more recs. Side note: I read a lot of different genres so I'm going to choose one book from a few different genres. Light fantasy, for someone looking to get into fantasy but not too extravagant or hard to follow, I would recommend The Raven Boys by Maggie Steifvater. In short a book about a group of teenagers who are trying to find this long lost welsh king called Glendower. The twist? Our main character blue is destined to cause her true love to dies, and her true love is a member of this friend group.... For some fantasy that's a little more fantastical but still a good one for beginners, Divine Rivals. Technically a fantasy romance but it still counts. This is set in a sort of world war one like war where we follow Iris Winnow as she becomes a war correspondant. I won't spoil any more than that, but trust me, it's good. For literary fiction, The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo. This is a mixture of romance, thriller and mystery but since I didn't want to put it in all three it's going here. This follows our MC (Sorry I forgot her name) as she is asked to do an exclusive interview with a legendary actress Evelyn Hugo. As we get deeper and deeper in, darker parts of Evelyn's career are explored and there's a plot twist that will shock you and change your whole opinion on this book. For a YA thriller I'm going to go with One of us is lying. I know there are some people who hate this book, but I think it's good enough to at least get you into the habit of reading. It basically follows five students who walk into detention but only four walk out alive. We follow the aftermath and the lives of the four students as they slowly start to investigate for themselves and form friendships with each other. Secrets get revealed all over the place and I don't think you can put this down once you've started. For an adult thriller I'm going to go with Battle Royale by Koshun Takami. This is usually regarded as YA/ New Adult but I think some of the themes are really triggering. In short this is a book which is slightly similar to The Hunger Games. 42 students from a Japanese school are placed on an island to fight each other to the death. The interesting thing about this book, is that while there is a main character, we actually get a perspective from most of their classmates. This gives you an insight into every character and you genuinely get to see every death as they happen. It's dark, gory and super twisted. I know this is over 600 pages, but trust me. Read to at least page 50 and you'll be hooked. Lastly an Adult Horror (actually one of the only horror books I've enjoyed) The Passengers by John Marrs. This book is one of the most twisted I've ever read and it's such a unique concept. It's set in a future where most of the population has self driving cars. We follow eight people who get into their cars one morning and their cars get hijacked by someone who tells them they're going to die. The hijacker broadcasts the entire thing online and gets the public to vote on who they want to die, revealing their darkest secrets along the way. This book is twisted and will have you even questioning your own moral standpoint as you ask whether you'd rather save a murderer or someone who's been cheating on their partner for over twenty years and living a double life.... And cause I love giving recs, here's a few extras. LGTBQ+ romance/ fantasy- The house in the cerulean sea by TJ Klune Middle grade - Scarlet and Ivy The lost twin, by Sophie Cleverly YA/LGBTQ+ romace- They both die at the end Hope you all enjoy and happy reading

You're very good at summarizing book plots without giving the story away. As a college undergraduate majoring in literature, I read a lot, especially classics. I was burned out. I don't know how Summer of '42 fell into my hands, but it was a breath of fresh air. I laughed a lot, and I was able to get back to the classics. Mind you, this was a long time ago (I'm 70 yrs old). I do enjoy laughing, so I appreciate your recommendations, none of which I've read. Thank you.

🍒🍒 you nailed it with The Midnight Library 🍒🍒 It’s my favorite book of all time, and though it starts out with heavy content, it ends with being such a wholesome story. Another great one is The Storied Life of A.J. Fikry. Sure-fire way to get you out of a slump. And I cried at the end. I saw someone else in the comments recommend Dark Matter by Blake Crouch. Perfect if you lean toward sci-fi. And if you are a romance reader but not a huge smut girly, The Dead Romantics by Ashley Poston is a GUARANTEED reading slump antibiotic. Just read it. It has ghosts. And it’s cute. (I’m finally reading Seven Year Slip (also by Poston) currently and it’s also helping with a DNF I couldn’t finish!)

What could be a better video topic than this? I love getting a run down of amazing books! My recommendations: 1) ‘A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder’ (it’s an easy young adult thriller with an engaging mystery - gives ‘Serial’ podcast vibes), 2) ‘Midnight in the Garden of Good & Evil’ (super fun eccentric characters and location (Savannah, GA) with a murder mystery throw in. It’s got all the fun southern vibes and rich people drama. It reads like a fictional novel except that it’s based on a true story! And the movie is awesome too.)

🍒I got sad when the video ended. I wanted more🫶🏻 Wanna get out of a reading slump? 1. Read Miss Benson’s Beetle by Rachel Joyce if you wanna go on an emotional roller coaster ride and laugh at every page. OMG! It’s hilarious. 2. There are two really short books written by Kimberly Lemming: What’s a Girl Gotta Do To Get On The Naughty List and Two Scoops of Hellfire (really smutty though), read ‘em. 3. The third book that I wanna recommend, which I’m actually in the middle of and haven’t finished yet, but still highly recommend is Emily Wilde’s Encyclopaedia of Faeries by Heather Fawcett!! You will want to snuggle in a cosy blanket once you start reading it, and it’s so interesting that you won’t be able to keep it down💜

shorter books, short chapters & compelling characters that keep you turning pages are key for slumps. Also picking up something from an author you’ve enjoyed reading before. If these fit into a series, one book easily leads into another. Suggestions for mystery: The Thursday Murder Club, fantasy: Wayward Children series by Seanan McGuire, cozy magical realism: anything by Sarah Addison Allen, literary: Alice Hoffman

Book #1, it's Agatha Christie - 'nuff said; Book #2 change of pace from what I usually read. I was just sucked in; Book #3, for some reason, it reminded me of the British TV show "Midsomer Murders" even though the backdrop is Canada. So cozy and comfortable to me. Loved it.

For fantasy readers, I'd recommend The Song of the Lioness series by Tamora Pierce -or literally all her books because she's been my #1 author for like 24 years now. It's technically YA, but has some really good messages (especially for women) that older readers will appreciate, and the writing is very readable and witty. It's just a fun, light read to get someone started reading again. I usually recommend books that are easy to read to get out of slumps; just something fun, in whatever genre that person likes.

I would recommend The Selection: It’s a dystopian and a great series that focuses on America and the complications of love and competing for Maxon’s heart. I cried for 2 hours during the 2nd book and 2 days during the 3rd. The Inheritance Games: is also a great series, it’s a mystery following Avery who randomly inherits a millionaires money and follows her and the Hawthorne brothers to figure out why

I highly recommend Frozen River. It’s the most compelling, gripping book I’ve read in a very long time! It’s up there with The Nightingale, and The Women! Simply remarkable! I recommend the audiobook!

Absolutely adding so many of these to my TBR right now!!! Also, where did you get your gorgeous red tank from Lexi? It's giving lifeguard/stranger things/summery vibes and I'm here for it 😊

I really enjoyed reading My Best Friend's Exorcism. It had a lot of references to the 80s that I remembered from back in my school days. To answer the QOTD, the book that got me out of a reading slump was Harmony Black by Craig Schaefer. It's an urban fantasy story and is an offshoot of his Daniel Faust series. I got it as a Kindle First book and quickly followed it up by reading the other available books. I then started reading the Faust series, which if reading in chronological order, should be read first. I don't feel that I lost any enjoyment from reading the Harmony Black books first and actually loved getting to learn more about characters that I really enjoyed. Craig Schaefer has since been an automatic read author for me.

I would totally recommend None of This is True by Lisa Jewell!! Her thrillers are so fast paced and full of twists that you would never see coming until the very end 🍒

I’ve been in a reading slump for over 6 months it’s horrible. Mind u the last reading slump I had before this lasted years so it’s terrifying to be in a slump again 😭 that being said, I’ve searched far and wide for the perfect recs and I’m so relieved my quest led me here (I was so close to giving up) because oh my god the amount of books I’m dying to read from this video alone is insane! Thank u am! I’ll update y’all on what I end up reading and how my slump goes (hopefully it’s over before I know it, wish me luck)

Okay!!! Let's talk about your excellent taste in books! I have read a number of these. And you are right they are wonderful...especially Less. If I was going to recommend a book to get someone out of a slump I would pick A Gentleman in Moscow! But Alex for you you NEED to read Holly Gramazio's Husbands. I predict you will love it.

🍒 Ooh I personally love a good easy read, like I have recently got into Sarah Adams (romcoms) and absolutely LOVE what I have read so far (When In Rome), I have just started Practice Makes Perfect and I only read half a page and already know it will be another fav (the main character is an introvert with social anxiety and I relate to her so much!!)! So I reccomend her if you like romcoms! Or something like Little Women or Anne Of Green Gables as they were easy and quick reads!

Such a great video!! 🍒 to get out of a reading slump I would recommend The Raven Cycle by Maggie Stiefvater. It's one of my favorite series. It's so interesting and the characters are amazing.YA, Small town, rich boys, tarot/witchy vibes, unexplainable magic things. (Not explaining it very well but I love it.) First time reading it I didn't know what was going on in the best ways. twists and turns. and the audio book is fantastic!!

My recommendation for getting out of a reading slump would be Thursday Murder Club. It’s happy, it’s emotional, it’s clever, it’s funny. And it’s a murder mystery! Which always get my stamp of approval.

I recently picked up The Book of Doors by Gareth Brown..it sounds so good! My suggestion to get out of a reading slump is one of my al time faves...Magic's Pawn by Mercedes Lackey. Seriously, that book changed my entire life. 🍒

Great video, as always!! I just recently completely ate up A Fellowship of Bakers and Magic, it’s super cozy, not a damn thing happens lol, but it’s so good! Think Legends & Lattes, but with a baking competition. I loved it! 🍒

I finished reading The Midnight Library but the ending kind of underwhelmed me because it felt so predictable and cliche.

Sometimes, I go to the library and tell the staff that the types of books I am interested in are Gothic, mystery, little historical fiction, fiction that everyone can learn from, the types of nonfiction books that I have in the past to get some suggestions from them. And sometimes I just go through all the books on my shelves that I haven't read yet. I have quite bunch of books that I want to read at any time now.
