No book gets me, nothing springs emotion in me anymore, it's like I lost taste, I don't think I lost it forever, I should probably look for something new that will relit that fire but I don't know what that would be. I think this is due to the fact that I've only been reading classics for a while and can't get much emotion out of them.
I need a page turner.

Stephen Kings new book Later was a page turner for me desu. Also, it kinda pissed me off that it ended so suddenly and I wanted more, so it kinda gave me motivation to read some other books.

Pick up an older pulp book, the Conan stories are cool

>No book gets me...blah blah...I've only been reading classics I promise… blah
Can't you just ask us for a fun book without frontloading it with assurances you're a real reader? Why do people come on here looking for permission to follow their own desires? I swear this shit accounts for 30% of the threads now.
Seeking absolution for enjoying the *wrong things* is self pity masquerading as self improvement. No more self pity anon, self love from here on out.
