How to improve my /lit/ memory?

I feel the books I've read up to a few years ago have nearly faded from my memory. Can't even remember the contents of books I know I read more than five years ago.

Nothing interests me. Nothing at all. I try to read different sorts of books and I lose interest in all of them and they make me feel exhausted and depressed. I'm not sure if this is some sort of ennui or depression or what. I just want something that I can enjoy and devote myself to, but there's nothing. Books for this feel?
