I can't get into long books, is something wrong with me?

Set goals for yourself.

5 pages a day NO MATTER WHAT

Or 10 pages a day no matter what.

Do that exponentially until you're wasting your life reading books until they kick you out of libraries and you go sleep under a bridge, reading the nutrition facts on the backs of chocolate bar wrappers.

I was going to retort "too much anime" but I watch quite a lot of anime myself

You might just be retarded, sorry

I guess you're not into it. Don't stress it buddy. Think of a book as a friend; sometimes you just don't want to hang out with them. But if they have something you want, go for it. Reading should always be done on an interested/not-interested basis. What book are you trying to read and why do you want to read it?

I was/am like this, try audiobooks.

>anime picture
You've been retarded by anime.

honestly just start forcing yourself to read regularly, itll get easier and easier. read before bed.

if you didn't start reading early you're likely fucked

television/videogames spoil your attention span

read on an ebook.
I'm dead serious. I'm not sure why, but I think it has something to do with the fact that you don't actually have the physical book in front of you that helps. You only have one page in front of you at a time.

Not true. I started in my 20s.

You can improve your attention span if you really want to.

Nope. I played console games and MMORPGs almost all day outside of school up until I was 20. Started reading and now at 23 I read way more than I play video games.
