(This post has a question for you about books… Just keep reading…)
Well, I’m finishing reading Wilt, which is a wonderful novel (but be prepared to be somewhat offended).
I usually don’t laugh out loud when reading…
(Oh god this must be the first time in ages someone writes “laugh out loud” in full…)
We’ll, I really don’t know why. I have this mental block or emotional block or whatever.
However, Wilt makes me laugh a lot. This makes me remember the last time I laughed so hard by reading a book.
It was around 12 years ago, when I was in my hometown, with my parents, in a café. I remember both scenes exactly: my parents’ faces when they say their normally stone-faced reading son laughing out like a madman and the scene I was reading. I remember the exact page.
In fact, I have the book here. This was the page:
The book was Changing Places, by David Lodge. It seems I laugh only when reading campus novels…
Now, I ask: do you also remember exact spots you were when reading a specific page?
These Bookish Things 
Yes, I do! Perhaps it’s because I have spatial-sequence synesthesia, and I “map” e.v.e.r.y.t.h.i.n.g. in my brain, or perhaps it’s that I love to read. But I do!
