I hadn't read for fun for like a decade and a half. But in the last few months, I got myself hooked on yuri manga, and then yuri light novels. I kept hitting a wall whenever a manga wasn't done yet but the light novels were. I just kept saying "fuck it" and finishing with the novel, rather than waiting forever for the rest.
It happened with Otherside Picnic, it happened with I'm in Love with the Villainess, and a couple of others. Then I started just buying more ebooks, standalone stories without manga adaptations, for the fuck of it. Reading is great.
People should be more open to comics and Mangas. I sincerely hope the new trend among younger kids gets overlooked when looking at teenage reading statistics.
Solo leveling might not be the height of literature but it beats not reading any day.
