I think it's normal, right?

Hey guys, Idk if it's fairly common but have you ever felt a reader's block after reading a very good novel/manga?

This happens to me after I complete a MASSIVE book. This may be bcz long books get me emotionally attached to characters and well, by the time I'm at the end, it has become my entire personality and life. But now I just _cannot_ get into another LONG book for months or even a year or two.

    I’ve been having that for a while now tbh. Nothing seems that interesting and I end up dropping a lot of stories after just a few chapters (if that)

    I’ve had that issue before. I call it “dating” the ML. If I’m interested in the book or story I will find out everything about the ML like I’m cyberstalking haha

    Omg, I'm reading No Home rn!!
    I honestly like it so much. I adore the way each character is written and how, as you discover their past, you genuinely understand them (like a real person). The character 'flaws' do make sense and watching them grow makes me feel so proud, lol. I'm around ch 200 (one of Eunyung's arc).

    omg you’re in one of the best arcs ( for my opinion ) !! i also like the way we see them grow up together ( mentally ), they’re eachother’s home and i find it really heartwarming
