Maybe it's time to vary your reading a bit? You probably haven't read "too much", but you might've oversaturated yourself with your go-to genres or types of story.

Pick up something new. Try some non-fiction. Shake it up a bit, and after a while go back to the old favorites with fresh eyes.

Yes, this.

This is what I also thought.

The sheer variety of fiction is staggering. OK yeah, maybe the bestselling and currently most popular books of a genre are similar, but those are just a tiny surface glimpse. Check out books from other genres, other countries, other eras, aimed at other target groups etc. If you don't bother looking, of course, you're not going to find anything.

It's also possible that you don't actually want to read at the moment and are forcing yourself out of some self-imposed obligation, and in this case no book will be up to snuff, because the potential enjoyment is spoiled before you've even read the first page. In that case, just take a break and don't bother with another book until you really want to.
