Struggle to recall where I read of it recently

There has to be a word for it.
I 'struggled to recall where I read of it recently' when I came across The Death of Archimedes by Antoni Slonimski.
I searched all the essays in my email. I recalled the recent poetry books I read. BJWard, Billy Collins? But I knew it was a female writer. I was going to look in the library reading history.
