Specific memory issue

Do you, folks, have that issue when you don't remember the book's titles, author's name and character's name but you do remember the plot/idea/content? The same with films/series, musicians, artists etc. Can it be trained? Can't say it bothers me much but sometimes I feel embarrassed when I don't remember smth like this (deep inside I think it's a useless info 😆 but anyway).
