Hey there /lit/ I am sort of a new fag in this board. my problem is rather simple. I will go to college this mid-september and apply for a languages major, however I didn't score a high enough average for applied languages, so I will rather enroll in language/literature/culture minor.
I have never completed a full book my whole life. I will start reading a book that I really enjoy, only to phase out 5 minutes later 25 pages ahead wihout having no memory of what I just read, eventually put down the book and watch it collect dust.(keep in mind I can read something for the sake of studying it) . So I guess my questions are, is there a general path I can take into literature? Should the works be intrinsically tied to history? Are there any techniques on how to better read and apreciate literature? Thank you.

In your case keep in mind like 90% of the work is just starting it and 10% is the effort to continue it and not get distracted. For the 10% I can recommend some easy things like varying where you read, keep your phone and laptop at a distance etc., but the most difficult part is up to you. Well, finding something you LIKE to read also helps, but again, it's not something anons can easily help with. One wrong recommendation can turn you off from reading forever. Here's the list of /lit/'s most popular/memes, pick something from the 2nd row if you're going for literary fiction as the 1st is a combination of too memey/difficult/avant-garde stuff for newfags
