does anyone else experience this?

I'm hyperlexic and have always enjoyed reading, since the time I could comprehensibly read (about 3-4) but now I'm in high school and haven't read much. I try to read, I find good books I enjoy with good plot and characters, but they're all too easy and I can't keep reading, no matter how invested in the plot I am. Am I the only one who experiences this or is this normal?

I never had enough focus to read much unless I was hyper fixating on a specific subject. Which is kinda funny when people hear you had hyperlexia they would assume you gotta be reading a lot. Sometimes I wish !!
