Try this:

    var nextPara = app.selection[0].parentStory.paragraphs.nextItem(app.selection[0].paragraphs[-1]);

    /*Loop: If next paragraph is NOT "title" or "en" paragraph style,
    add it to the current selection. */
    try{
        while(nextPara.appliedParagraphStyle != app.activeDocument.paragraphStyles.item("title") 
        && nextPara.appliedParagraphStyle != app.activeDocument.paragraphStyles.item("en"))
        {
            nextPara.select(SelectionOptions.addTo);
            nextPara = app.selection[0].parentStory.paragraphs.nextItem(app.selection[0].paragraphs[-1]);
        }
    }
    catch(err) {
        
    }
