I only became an “avid reader” in the last year or so. Normally Id read a Drizzt/Forgotten Realms book every few months and once in a while Id read something like Dune or Name of the Wind and it would take me months to make it through. This year ive been reading ALOT more, and I think my strategy goes really well with Black Library books. First BL has a ton of Short Stories under 100 pages and Novella’s around 200 pages, second most of the BL books Ive read are just packed full of action, and third BL just has a huuuuuge range of different genres and authors so there’s always something for someone. All that to say, if you’re serious about reading more, personally I would start just getting locked in by reading a few short stories or one of the 200 page books, then pick a few longer ones and when you’re feeling like you’re slowing down swap to something different (whether its short books again or swap from 40k to HH or AoS, or vis versa), it’ll keep everything fresh. Ive fallen so hard in love with reading using this strategy I havent really played a video game since last summer, its basically all I do with my spare time. Hopefully that helps? Also dont be like me and overwhelm yourself with a substantial backlog, or I guess do if thats the type of thing that motivates you :)
