the deal breaker for me is actually picking up a new book to read, often I stop at the "searching a good book to read". when you start often is inertia.

It sounds like maybe you need a better network of strong recommendations that you would personally find interesting. For me, my interests lie in non-fiction literature, and I have many colleagues who share those interests, and so I often find myself with more interesting literature on my list than I have the free time to read and digest. However, I think that I have a much better problem than you do.

I'm certain that there are quality book clubs, social or even recommendation engines that might help you get started finding more literature that's personally interesting to you. Maybe the HN crowd knows of some quality sources for personally interesting literature?

Also, the classics, lists of great books, influences of the authors of your favorite books...
