Very nonplussed to read a non-aphantasic person explaining that aphantasic people don't like to read books because we can't make mental pictures and reading isn't enjoyable...
It was well-meant, but based on her experience of just one aphantasic child.
Please don't do this, folks.

For the avoidance of doubt, in case this breaks containment: I am completely, totally aphantasic, and I love to read. All kinds of genres, fiction and non-fiction. My home contains close on a thousand books and they are almost all mine.
