If you’re anything like me, you probably read a lot of books and forget a lot about them as well after reading them (also see: being ADHD)

Is there one specific book whose plot, characters, setting you just can’t get out of your mind and still think about today even when in the midst of another book?

For me, it’s 1Q84 by Haruki Murakami. I think due to the sheer volume of this book (clocked in over 1000 pages) I was so invested in Tengo and Aomame’s stories that it’s quite impossible to forget them quickly. This is also why I prefer long novels, because they stick around in my memory for longer!

So what book is still stuck with you?

      I read this back in July for the first time. I didn’t love it as much as some, but I’d be lying if I said that it doesnt pop into my brain for one reason or another at least weekly. Fascinating, messy beast of a book.

      Love, love, love this book! Whenever anyone asks me for a hunting book title, this is my go-to suggestion.
