Oh, I have absolutely been there - a couple of years ago, and I’m still coming out of it to a certain extent. The only things that helped start shifting it for me were
1. my equivalent of your popcorn books
2. re-calibrating the TBR books I had to being lovely friendly decor, which could also happen to provide lovely words IF I ever chose to pick them up, rather than them being disapproving neglected friends or lovers,
Oh I'd never thought of pomodoroing (?) reading! I might try that, thank you! Glad to hear I'm not alone & love the idea of reframing the tbr as friendly decor 😆

3. a pomodoro app (I like Forest)
I wish you happy words ahead, in whatever form ❤️
