My husband is a non book reader. He claims he’s never read a book outside of school. He does deal with ADHD and intrusive thoughts so it is hard to focus for him. During a power outage because of Hurricane Helene he was extremely bored without the use of electronics. I was content with my books and suggested maybe he gives some books a try. Looking for recommendations for a book that will really grab him so he can find the joy of reading. He’s into sports and stand up comedy. Favorite tv shows would be Breaking Bad, Friday Night Lights, Seinfeld. Not into sci-fi or romance. Any suggestions?

Friday Night Lights was a book that was adapted into a television show. So that might be a a start.
The author even moved to the town and did a lot of research before wrote the book. He spent time with the coaches, football players, people as well.
Maybe the Jack Reacher series? They’re fast-paced, full of action, no romance, lots of fun! Also get him reading actual books, not on a tablet, for less distraction. I struggle with ADHD myself and have my tablet and phone go into Do Not Disturb mode after 9 pm so I don’t go off to doom scrolling!
