That happens to me from time to time, but then it's just a matter of finding the right book.
I mostly get that way if I read a few books of a certain style or genre or something right after one another.
Now I've gotten into the habit of a big eclectic pile of books everytime I go to the library--fiction of various types, non-fiction, children's, graphic novels--so I always have something I feel like reading.

maybe your not reading the right books? i've had that problem. What i did was go back and re-read the books that i love and still love. then when my brain is up for the challenge i go back to the library and try to find a book.

I'm so overloaded with college reading burning_eyes
It's like a reading overload. I didn't know that could happen.

dark_elf Paracket Summer has that effect on my will to read, actually... Along with other things. Everything can be put off until tomorrow, you know? I'm a big procrastinator ontop of that! sweatdrop Me too, for some odd reason I read alot of "fun" book during the school year but when summer comes I hardly touch a book. Also I want to read the 5th and 6th Harry Potter books again because the other day when my best friends was asking questions I could harly answer them. The trouble is that I can't just open 5 and read, I HAVE to read the 1st, 2nd, and so on. But I have read the first many times so its almost like "heh..." I thought I was the only one who re-read them any time I read one.

I reread all the time, but I don't remember having had a problem with sudden disinterest yet.

It happens to me too. I usually look at the threads in gaia. Your fellow bookworms are the remedy to cure the displeasure.
That, or you watch R.O.D. (*R.O.D TV boxset= the best xmas gift* *another item in my wish list*) gonk

I have nearly never had that problem, only had it when I was just getting used/likeing reading.
Then again, I always think of my books as a transport to a alternive universe, where I can ecscape from this world, to go where I feel like I belong more then I do here. Wonderful feeling really. You cant think of books like just a book, I used to have that problem when I started reading. Just think about it as a different world, and that your really there, watching the events from a distence, and you can hear there thoughts and such because you have the power to read minds. Thats what I do. Of course, it takes a ton of imaginaiton, but then, most readers have that. smile

Yes. It was the book Story of Mankind that was about history...although that was before I fell in love with history.
I read it for five months, not getting beyond page 50. Dropped it for two years before picking it up again. When I picked it up, man did I love it and speed through it.

Yeah, it's happened to me, being disinterested in books for awile. I though something wAs wrong with me or something, since I couldn't finish like any book for about a month. But then I read Twilight, and ever since I read like 5 books a week. I guess it just took a book I was really interested in to break that slump

Several times, but when night comes and there is a glass of coke on my nightstand, mozart is playing and my parents are sleeping, then I read until morning.

Usually, I just put down what bores me to take up again later, or take it with me someplace I know will have nothing else to read (like the dentist). I'll also develop a sudden interest in reading again when I'm supposed to be doing something else (like work).

I don't know about your personal interests in books, or if you like Manga as well like me, but.... well... here's my two cents.
For times when I fall into a reading slump, I find the best way to get me out of it is to start back with the most simple things to read that I know will absolutely suck me in without much effort. I personaly find books By Bruce Covall and a manga series called "death Note" have the power to pull even the daftest of readers into the plotline easily.
