Re: when u read...

I'm horrible with names of any type. Even while I'm reading a book, I'll forget some of the minor character names after a few hours of having the book in front of me.... Chat Icon

Re: when u read...

I think it would be amazing if anyone could remember characters from all the books they read. I remember ones from books that I really enjoyed. But even then over time you tend to forget.

Re: when u read...

Mostly just the overall stuff unless it's a REALLY good book and or it sticks for some reason. There are some lines from some books that I can repeat word for word, but they are few and far between.

I can usually remember the story and general things, but sometimes names completely escape me and also details.

It makes it easier to re-read the same book again in the future Chat Icon

I forget the details. I remember the story, the message, what I got from the book, and the feelings I had while reading and when finished.

Re: when u read...

I don't remember names usually & other specifics, but I remember the basic plot & how the book moved me... whether I loved it, kinda liked it, or didn't care for it.

I can really only remember character names in books that are part of a series. In general, I remember the plot lines and whether or not I liked, loved, or hated the book. I actually write it down so I do not read the same book twice accidentally!

I remember details about favorite books but that's about it. If I read the summary of other books, it will usually come back to me. But when I read a series of books (Kay Scarpetta, Stephanie Plum), I usually mix up what happened in which book. I bought a duplicate book more than once. Chat Icon

No, but DH is amazing at that. We're reading the same series, and he finished about a book and a half ahead of me, and he can remember details I can't but I just read like 2 chapters ago! Chat Icon

I have a great memory with most things, but for some reason I have a horrible memory when it comes to books and movies!
