I mostly read in class because school is so boring and so I go into a kind of book trance where I block out everything around me. I've found this is extremely conducive to memorization. If a book is especially boring or doesn't flow well, I often have trouble recalling major plot arcs but vividly remember inane details, but for the most part I have an excellent memory.
