For me, reading is a bit of a mirage. I’ll tell someone about one of my favorite books and they’ll ask me what happens in it and, well, honestly, I have no idea. It was years ago. Turns out I don’t really remember the book, I remember how it made me feel. I’m going back to a state of mind it created in me rather than any actual plot or characters. Relationships can be like that too. I don’t really remember what she and I did together, but I remember everything about how it felt.
