Books vs real life??

I am a HUGE fan of reading. I read all the time,, I read Harry potter when inwas in grade two lol .. But now when I read amazing books I always feel like I'm part of the book or I'm the main character and I get really emotional and sometimes I compare them to real life like how would 'this person act or what would she do or think about that?? Is this normal???

    If you look at the world of HP you will see that you are not the only one. Best example I can think of is. Go to youtube. Watch the reactions of people first getting sorted on the site Pottermore. They are either overjoyed in being sorted into the house they have lived in ever since the books came out and they were whisked off to the magical school or look at them literlly brake down and cry as they see their lived end with a different house. I myself will have this odd history with the HP series even though their just books, I litterlly used them as a home away from home when ever i needed to escape reality. So much That sometimes i would take reality to be fake and Hogwarts to be real.

    Your normal, this is normal. Dont worry and keep reading about fantastical adventures. And if you really like reading so much and from what you said is true. Try your had at wrighting a story yourself. You never know you could become a great Novelist someday :D

    Perfectly normal in my opinion, I'm a rather avid reader and I do the same thing on a daily basis.

    I really wish I could love reading as much as you. What you are doing with books is the same thing that a common person does with TV shows or comics. It's perfectly normal.
