What to read when your « mood radar » is stuck on neutral?

Good morning!

Like a lot of us, i’m a mood reader. The mood of what I feel like reading pretty much dictate what I wanna pick up.. and sadly that radar has been set to neutral lately 😅 so I mainly have no idea what to pick!

Like my friend Ruby asked me, “why don’t you just reread an old favorite?”, while it did cross my mind.. idk which one 😳 it is part of my goal this year to reread more- but then I wasn’t sure if I wanted to do Book 2 of my Anna Caritas serie (french horror), or I was also thinking The love Hypothesis ..

Then again I felt like reading more french books.. as I’ve been doing poorly in reading books in my language this year 😂 (80% english for 20% french)

I feel like that’s the perfect time to read more non-fiction, as of which i’ve been quite into some True Crime lately! Or I can also loan some paranormal short stories that can be interresting too.

While I don’t know what I feel like reading, I also kinda don’t wanna read big stories either? I like the format of collections of stories that can help me fall asleep easier at night time. Middle grade or poetry also sounds like a good idea in this context.

For non-mood readers.. how do you pick what you read next??
