If your problem is you can’t read consistently but you know you like fantasy books, then don’t give up on them! You are not wasting your time by using leisure hours doing something you like. And you are learning from them - you are building your vocabulary/grammar skills, being exposed to new ways of human (and non-human) interactions/perspectives you wouldn’t otherwise be, and you are exercising your imagination! Think of it like a workout for your brain. Also, as others have said, I encourage you to not read just because you think it looks cool or sexy. That is literally being a poser which is the opposite. The guy who reads at a bar because he wants girls to think he’s smart is a notoriously lame archetype.
