We live in the golden age of publishing. Every year, millions of books are published across countless genres. Walk into a bookstore or scroll through an online retailer, and the sheer volume of options can leave you feeling overwhelmed. This abundance, while wonderful, creates a phenomenon psychologists call choice overload—the paralysis we feel when faced with too many options.
When every book feels like a potential "perfect" read, we hesitate to commit. What if we choose the wrong one? What if there’s a better book just one click away? This indecision often leads to skipping the reading process altogether.
