Well it comes in phases. Last year I read a new book every few days. I probably read 30 books or so, then I got sick of it and stopped. Haven't read a single one since then but also dont care too much about it.

I've found watching a tv series and reading a book are very similar. They both share two key issues:

First reason there are good and bad books, and finding the good ones is really difficult for me. Just like with a tv show, I will stumble on a book and read it, it will be a great book that really moves me and makes me think. Now hooked on books, I will look for more books. I will read one after the other. I will eventually find one thats tiresome or "bad". I will fight through it. But then when the next book is also not great, I will stop entirely. Exact same happens to me when watching tv shows (last great one was succession).

Second reason is just getting sick of the medium in general. Like with many things in live I just get sick of reading. It also happens to me when I regularly watch tv shows, at some point I get sick of the activity all together and stop for a few months (or years).
