    I think trying to love it is not going to work. I love reading but find it difficult to stick to.

    Instead, it’s more important to make it a routine - like 30 minutes a day, 5 days a week, before bed. It’s when I stick to a routine that I read more. Loving it comes later - once you have a routine you can try different books out and see what makes that routine easier.

    I’ll also say that I would go in being perfectly okay to just stop reading any book at any point if it’s not keeping you happy. You keep the routine but just substitute other books in. Forcing yourself to read something uninteresting will make it even harder. Try not to judge yourself- it’s okay to not like something others love or to change your mind after reading something again.
