    It's been a little more 2 months since I got hold of the reins of my life back from daydreaming and non-stop novel reading. Of course, I would never stop reading novels but whenever a mass release (7+ Chapters) happens in a novel I'm reading -I limited them to really few most of them weekly or monthly- I start fearing to get pulled back in that hypnotized state of non-stop reading. so now I have around 5 novels which I put aside -for now- because of this.

    The thing is; I really liked some of those novel and others I've been following for a year or so. now I'm struck with a dilemma. read it or leave it. so, help?

    I stopped reading WoC, SA and ZTJ because they were too addictive for me.

    Read it and train your willpower!

    tbh I dont really see a problem with non-stpo reading? As long as it doesn't affect your life in a bad manner (like not doing paperwork or not going to work/school/whatever) ....

    If reading too much is affecting your life, then stop reading novels, except your top 3 or 5 favourite novels.

    Eh, just read it. You'll catch up to the current chapter of whatever you're binging (or the final chapter), and bam. All done.

    Then you suddenly have nothing to do.

    Problem solved.

    Read it. If you let your stockpile get too large, it'll get too hard to read later and you'll move onto a new novel. At least that's what happens to me

    I would say to read it, get up to date with the translation and the mtl the shit out of it until you read the whole thing and move on. If it's an ongoing novel, don't touch it. At least in my case, knowing that there is a novel I want to read, a novel that I already started but haven't finished, kind of bugs me. Though you can also just drop the novel, which is what I did with a many novels I was reading but I didn't like all that much. Read it only if you really liked the novel.

    poll it so that you can see the quantifiable 'opinions' of people.... we live in a democracy age, majority rule ftw (but honestly, deep down, you know what's best for yourself, why follow the advice of anons on the net? myself included) LOL...

    Or allot yourself a time period each week (eg Sunday morning or something) and read NU only during those 1-2-3-4 hours each week. Like that you don’t need to wait each day for updates. But your willpower will be tested.
