Please help!
Due to having lots on, working, youngish kids, and generally a bit of a hectic life, I have become a captive of Mumsnet. In terms of reading, all I ever do is read MN threads and occasionally post (name changed).
I have no longer the attention span for reading books it seems but I used to be a very avid reader until I had kids 10 years ago. The more I mums net, the less I am able to focus on books movies etc. 😑
So, I would like to get back into reading, but the book needs to hit the spot otherwise I am bound to give up after a few pages, sadly.
I'll try any genre as long as either the language and the story is 'sophisticated' or it's quite fast paced and suspense without being dumb, or if it has some very current topics in it. So called chic lit isn't really for me but I don't think I can get through any classics either. I have enjoyed some non-fiction, which I sometimes thinks it's easier to dip in and out.
Long post, but please can you suggest books that might have a hope of being read by someone whose attention span has been shot to pieces, mostly due to a hectic lifestyle and the quick reward of reading stuff online.
Massive thanks in advance.
