I kind of lost the habit of reading books in recent years, but would like to read a bit more. I saw this post and thought you guys might have some thoughts to share!

As someone with Aphantasia it can be a bit of a challenge to get into a book. Unlike that post about staring at paper and hallucinating, they really are just words on a page for me. Despite this, I’ve still managed to maintain my love of reading throughout my life, but I won’t lie, it can be very difficult to choose a book over other mediums of entertainment at times. Does anyone else go through this as well? What do you do to help engross yourself in a story when there isn’t a mental movie to pull you in?
