[quote=Anonymous]I am an avid reader. I probably read about 5-7 books a month of varying genres: non-fiction, classic literature, modern fiction, memoirs, biographies, etc. I participate in online book discussions and am also a member of my library's book club. I say this so you know that I'm reading intelligently and thinking about what I read. But for the life of me, I can't remember books once I'm done. I find the same thing with movies. Even if it's something that makes a big impression on me at the time, I find that I can't give a full plot summary a year later. I can generally remember some characters and themes, but often forget what ultimately happens. Usually if I start re-reading something I'll remember as I go, or sometimes remember the whole thing when I start. I guess the good thing is that it makes it fun to re-read books!

I'm just so curious if other people find this as well? Do I have some weird memory problem? Am I not reading as carefully as I should or as I think I am? What do you think? [/quote]
