Hello, Bookworms! Do you ever think about a time when you read a particular book and were so engrossed in it, loving the world, the vibes, and the characters? That feeling was so good in the perfect weather, that you want to relive the time.
Personally, this happens to me frequently. I often find myself searching for ways to relive that time by re-reading that book or just spending time remembering those days.
Some books really get stuck with you even when you don’t realize it. As human beings, nostalgia is triggered when something reminds you of a particular time.
When I am going through my bookshelf and I see a book that I really liked, I go back to the time and I remember what was going on in my life when I had read this particular book. It is really interesting to see that books have so much power in our lives.
Personally, books are a medium that transports me back to the past, to relive those days. I really enjoy doing that. I recently read City Of Bones by Cassandra Clare because I wanted to go back to those days when I was obsessing over shadowhunters after watching the series and then receiving the book series on my birthday back in 2020. I was recalling the days when I used to write character biographies in my very older posts! I was really missing that time and after reading City Of Bones, I felt very happy.
This post is short because I want to hear about your experiences of finding nostalgia through books in the comments ๐
Happy Reading!
Rabhya.
