Can't seem to get through Poisonwood Bible – I find myself skimming through, mixing up the sisters and not caring. I think perhaps it's best to put it down and come back to it another time.
Any suggestions on books I can get to next to pull myself out of this slump?
Books I've read recently and liked: Remains of the Day, Piranesi, Pachinko, Convenience Store Woman, Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo, I Who Have Never Known Men
Books I've read recently and didn't enjoy: Of Mice and Men, The Little Prince, Wedding People (Alison Espach), Funny Story (Emily Henry), Nothing to See Here (Kevin Wilson), What Alice Forgot (Liane Moriarty)
Thank you!!

I also couldn’t get into PB. And didn’t care for the characters and sort of wanted them to fail which I don’t think was the intent of the writer. Wasn’t for me.
But seeing your other books, I didn’t like Pachinko but love of Mice and Men so no idea what to suggest right off the bat!
You seem to like character driven stories – have you tried Middlesex by Jeffery Eugenides?
