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?
Read the whole Dark Tower series. It’s still stuck in my end for how angry I am about the terrible ending.
The Seven Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle was pretty good up until the end. It wasn’t a bad ending, but wasn’t terribly inventive either and a little underwhelming.
I also finished the Enderlings trilogy. That was an intense ride.
