I (16M) haven’t read a book since I was 11? It’s super embarrassing yes however I’ve been trying to get back into reading as I didn’t do really that well for my english national exams (to no one’s surprise). Lately I’ve been on this book (talks about state inequality + wealth inequality) so basically about my state’s issues and I think I’ve been. pretty consistent! (10 pages everyday for the last 2 weeks so I’m already half way through the book) but honestly it’s a topic that disinterests me even though I initially thought I would be enjoying reading such topics. i could literally name you all the books i’ve read:
-diary of a wimpy kid (i think i made it till the long haul)
– geronimo stilton
– percy jackson (i think i made past the second book only)
– harry potter (didn’t finish the super thick one)
– august (really loved this one)
– some assassins creed book (diary of altair probably)
– a lego ninjago book
honestly go brutal in the comments BUT please do give me a book recommendation! thank uuu

Ender’s Game by Orson Scott Card, All Systems Red by Martha Wells, and Ready Player One by Ernest Cline all come to mind. Have fun!
Don’t be embarrassed bro. There’s nothing for us to be brutal about!!
I’m 34 and only started reading again last year. Before that I hadn’t read since I was your age. I’ll drop 3 recommendations for you:
My favorite book of all time is Animal Farm by George Orwell. You will probably have to read it for school if you haven’t already.
My favorite books when I was your age were the Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy series by Douglas Adams. It amazed me how silently reading a book could make me bust up laughing. Didn’t know that was possible at the time.
A book I have read recently that helped jumpstart my reading was the Constant Rabbit by Jasper Fforde. I feel like it’s the kind of book I wish I would have read when I was your age. Good stuff in there.
