Whenever I start to read I always feel tired and start yawning, and I never stop. I could wake up from a good 10 hour sleep and pick up a good book and I still keep yawning. It's not even that I find what I'm reading boring, it could be something I really like and it's still the same.
What is wrong with me and any tips to combat this problem?

Take short breaks. Smoke a cig, drink some water, take a piss.
I can't think of anything else.

Go outside to freshen up.

Same thing happens to me. After no more than ten pages the yawning starts. Sure, there's the chance that you (as I) are an idiot, so let's just get that out of the way. What I do is I push on through and if the book is good, I soon get over that mushy brain state. If I don't and it happens three or four times on the same book, it's time to admit one of us is too good for the other.

You're still tired. Reading is good sign of mental fatigue. Your mind hardly does any work while watching tv, and it's running on adrenaline while playing games. When reading fatigue shows itself fully.
There's only two way around it, sleep and caffeine.

Fixed it for you.
do you read in bed? do you read before bed?
if you so might unconsciously associate reading with sleeping.
i had an english teacher ban the class from reading in bed one year.
