Like the title says, I fell out of love with reading. It probably happened about ten years ago and I haven’t really looked to get back into it. But I think now is the time. I want something that’ll hook me from the start. Pretty simple really. I don’t know if it matters but I am 32 years old and a male. I love fantasy, sci-fi and action. I will include if list of some of the things I read and loved years ago. Thank you in advance!
The Eragorn series
The Song of Ice and Fire series
The Artemis Foul series
The Alex Rider series
I read some of the Maximum Ride books and tried getting into The Wheel of Time books but just couldn’t.

try the cradle series by will wight. i just listened to the whole series in the last month or so, on audible. if you are into audiobooks they’re quite good. if not, i imagine just reading the books would be really enjoyable as well.
Blake Crouch. His books are action-packed, easy to dive into, and fun reads. Dark Matter, Recursion, Pines, Upgrade…. All lots of fun!
Try something different from what you used to read:
Lonesome Dove by Larry McMurtry
Red Dragon by Thomas Harris
Sharpe’s Eagle by Bernard Cornwell
