Have you any idea what you do like to read? Something fairly light mood and with a chapter structure might suit. Built in break points. Have you seen Miss Fisher on TV? Either of Kerry’s detective series could work if you liked that.
I have a few books. Mostly non fictional. Something related to my work. So I'm currently reading "How the world really works - Vaclav Smil". I have a couple other books that I bought on a whim after listening to an inspiring talk by him.
Also a couple of fiction books that I want to read. One is Silo by Hugh Howey. Its an apple tv show and I loved the show so I bought the book!
You see where the problem is. I buy books but don't read them. 🤦♂️
Ah! Then I suggest building yourself a specific reading spot. A cosy chair/beanbag/mini tent, add a ritual of a pot of tea/mixed drink and settle in 😺
