Trouble reading?

I've really been missing being able to read a good book. I used to be an avid reader but with this brain fog I've found it really hard to remember what I've read. So, I came up with the idea of sticking post its on to the pages every time an new character or place or plot came about. It worked and I have just finished my first book in ages.

Grt idea. I recently read a author that could weave a story and characters so well. Just when u have it straight he introduced another. I gor upset but he did it so seamlessly that i loved it later.

Nice idea. Like reading my kindle though because it's light and less cumbersome to hold.

Yes I was a kindle user before. Might have to stick to paper for awhile now though.

I was an avid reader too but had to change to audible books. I've been struggling with remembering characters so I'm now going to try the post it route. Thanks xx

Hi, I too switched to audio books about a year ago. I listened to books I had previously read and found that way I could just keep up. Before I would never have re read a book. My favourite author bought out the next book in a series and I was fretting I wouldn't be able to keep with it. The post its really helped.

I've had trouble concentrating but I think it's more down to depression than Lupus. Must admit I dont read as eagerly or take things in as well as I used to...Glad you found something to help :)
