>tfw low reading comprehension and can rarely find deeper

Try reading philosophy to get used to thinking or just read the annotations and some reviews.
Or give up and enjoy the aesthetics, nothing bad about that.

practice, practice, practice. I'm sure there are books with annotations pertaining to analysis of the text. Watch or listen to or read critics. Go watch YourMovieSucks, especially his synecdoche review. It's not books, per say, but seeing how a person takes apart any narrative might give you some ideas about which questions to ask yourself while reading.

>low reading comprehension

is it a language ability problem or a failure to recognise themes? If it's the former, read more; if it's the latter, read easier allegorical books to recognise patterns or read something with lots of annotations like Shakespeare

Nothing. You were born this way and the only cure is death.

I think this is something a lot of us struggle with and you presented yourself humbly, and at the end of the day I think we all like to read, would like to read better, and would like to have more people in the world to share these things with. Good luck anon.

Switch off everything, phone tv etc. Embrace the silence, oh how melodramatic, and just follow whatever tugs you. Or run through, suffer since you're not comprehending as you want to, some of the cannon and something may click. If not... sorry Martha but this just ain't for you.

Learn to be an active reader. Check youtube. My recommendation is try to write questions about what you're reading and then answer them either as you read or after.
