I can imagine 64 squares, but I can't imagine being happy without her.

I really, really want to like books but I don't.
I remember it very vividly, I was a teenager in middle school and despite having school the next day I was wide awake until 01:00 am reading a fantasy book (which name I sadly forgot a long time ago). I was just so into it. It's crazy I remember this exact moment while 99.9% of other memories around that time are just lost forever, which just makes it all the more painful. Nowadays I read maybe a handful of pages of Murakami or Dostoevsky before putting the book away. Maybe I just need to try different authors or a different genre. Or maybe the magic is just gone.
