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?

    The Seven or Eight Deaths of Stella Fortuna by Juliet Grames. I’ve thought about it multiple times since I finished it.

    I want to read it again, but I loved it SO SO much that I’m purposely putting it off so I can be excited about reading it again for longer. I’ve never done this with a book before 😅
