Do you ever get so lost in a book that you forget what’s your reality?

[Aquariusmystery]

What I mean is for example you read a book about a fantasy land. Do you then forget you live in a normal town with a full time job etc?

Yes

No

[kyleelyn199723]

I wish I had this ability, unfortunately I have ADHD and get lost in my mind instead

[Aquariusmystery]

Oh I’m the opposite I’m autistic so I focus on tiny facts and details lol

[kyleelyn199723]

I envy your attention to detail lol that’s an awesome ability to have.

I only wish I could find a book that was so good that I felt like I was truly a part of the story and began to forget my own reality.

Seek happiness in life and don’t get lost in video games, tv shows or novels. That is a sign of depression

[Aquariusmystery]

But I enjoy books

[Youdumbeotch]

I understand, it’s an outlet but to get lost is running from your waking life.

[weeee]

Yeah, thats a sign of good writing. It also happens to me with music sometimes

[JennBITx]

That is always nice to do. I enjoy it a lot actually. Helps with stress

[splashmustache]

It didn't happen in the book, but sometimes when I watch a movie, I get lost in the movie and I imagine a world like that.

[IncognitoBandito]

The book Anathem by Neal Stephenson was like that for me

[jeffryrobertbabb]

I can get lost in a book, Lord of the Rings and Dune are good examples.

[LemiaOfChampions]

Sports books or manga

[clampfan101]

No, but it sounds fun. lol

[RasberrySlushPuppy]

Stop reading books about me then

[Aquariusmystery]

Excuse me?

[RasberrySlushPuppy]

You shouldn't read those things

[RasberrySlushPuppy]

Super sized colouring in male anatomy atlas.

[Aquariusmystery]

I don’t know what you’re talking about. I read historical fiction

[RasberrySlushPuppy]

Oh okay what like? Greek mythology like Medusa?

[Aquariusmystery]

Medieval

[RasberrySlushPuppy]

I see well thats interesting, i know you like Castles and say Car-sul instead of Cass ul 😙
what would you want to even be if you had the choice?

[Aquariusmystery]

What do you mean, like my job if I lived in historical times?

[RasberrySlushPuppy]

yes, i meant if you were in medieval times it can be anything not just a job

[Aquariusmystery]

I’d like to be a ladies maid

[RasberrySlushPuppy]

I'd want to be the leader of a school of sorcery and give witches and wizards unspoken powers to grow things with yeast and special plantations 😂

[Sketti2021]

No...
