Is it normal that i want to live a life of novel hero

Recently I have been reading novels about old times,were everything is so beautiful,and where are so fascinating love stories.And i really want to be there in that times and sometimes i imagine myself in the place of heroes of the book.When i read a book especially of old times i really want to cry when i close the book and come back to reality,and my life seems so shallow so meaningless in the comperation with the lives of the book heroes.When i read ''War and Peace'' by Tolstoy,i couldn't stop myself from crying,cause i wanted to be with Andrei so much.Sometimes i feel this also when i watch some films.Has anyone felt something like this???

    Everyone wants to imagine they can be a hero, or the main character of some of their favorite books or movies and shows. If what you're watching or reading seems more interesting than what goes on in real life, you imagine it =)

    I can feel the same sometimes. But remember, even their lives aren't real, they're the brainchild of the author.
