Is there any word for the person who often forgets?

Other than the word forgetter, is there any word for the person who often forgets?

I don’t mean someone with Alzheimer’s disease, just someone who reads a lot but is unable to recall what they’ve read when they need that information.


Absentminded may fit your description:

  • tending to forget things or to not notice things : having or showing a lack of attention.

( M-W)


forgetful

apt or likely not to remember.
