Hey everyone,
I’m 20, and I’ve basically gone my whole life only reading what was forced on me in school. I’ve never actually picked up a book because I wanted to. Lately, I’ve been really wanting to get into it, but I’m honestly overwhelmed with where to start.
Everyone keeps telling me to read self-help stuff, but that doesn't really pique my interest. I want fiction. I have this feeling that there’s a story out there that’s gonna absolutely blow my mind and keep me up at night, I just don't know how to find it.
Tho my biggest fear is picking up some massive book that looks like a dictionary, getting bored, and just giving up on reading entirely. I need something that’s a relatively easy read, beginner-friendly, and not too long. I’m into stuff like Inception with big plot twists and high stakes or romcom that makes me giggle at 3 am. Tho im not really sure where to start
Has anyone else been in this boat? What’s a good "gateway" book for someone who isn't a reader but wants a story that'll leave me staring at the wall when I finish it?
Open to anything, thanks!
