I've been diagnosed with depression and anxiety, and I really want to read more as I've always found it really relaxing to go bed with a good book. I'm really struggling to concentrate though - apparently this is part of depression. Everything I try to start reading either feels too complicated to concentrate on, or it seems so 'fake' (I know that's the point of fiction, but I want something I really get drawn into and feels more real than the real world!).
Any suggestions please? The last book I read was The Book of Strange New Things which I was into from the first page. But since then I've tried so many books and not found anything.
