Do you have the same experience with many books? For maybe five or more years, now, I've only been able to enjoy a handful of novels past the first third-or-so. I just can't keep up the momentum. Stress at work comes in periodic cycles, about every three weeks. It's the way my industry is set up, with how deadlines fall. When that happens and I can't read as much, I just lose interest in the characters 😔
No, I would say that in recent memory it was just that book that was like that for me. Without spoiling anything I think it had to do with the book being kind of grounded (within the sci-fi setting it set) and then it just wasn't.
And yeah I could definitely understand losing interest in that way. You just kind of lose the connection to the book through lack of interaction with it. Not sure if it would work but it could help to go back a couple of chapters and start reading from there to kind of remember what you were reading and feeling earlier.
I might give the book a try, then. And that's not a bad idea; I'll see if it helps.
