hi friends! i remember seeing a post recently about how different readers visualize books while reading, and it got me thinking.

i'm pretty sure i fall into the category of those with aphantasia, as i have an extremely difficult time visualizing things in my mind as i read. i get the gist of what an author is describing, but i don't SEE it. i just have the idea/concept of it!

i'm wondering for those who of you who have the same "issue" if you will, are there any books in particular that you feel did a great job in being descriptive, making it easier to "picture" or immerse yourself? (could be the author wrote beautifully about the environment, or maybe described scents or textures so well you felt it was REAL.)

and if you're the opposite and have hyperphantasia, what are some books that really made you feel as though you had a picture book in your hands rather than pages full of words?
