12 Short Stories to Get You Out of a Reading Slump

by Susan Roberts

I've been in a major reading slump lately.  Even though I missed reading, I just couldn't concentrate, and I kept trying new books with no luck.  Someone suggested that I try reading some short stories, and even though I don't normally like short stories, I was willing to give it a try.  One of my favorite authors had a book published by Amazon Original Stories - these are short stories by popular authors that are only available on Amazon Kindle. Each one can be read in an hour or less.  I decided to try short stories by some of my favorite authors, and I ended up reading 12 short stories, and my reading slump has ended!! 

NOTE:  All of these books are available on  Kindle Unlimited, and most are part of Amazon Prime Reading too (with free listening).
