I completely agree. I try and justify their decision even if it was completely wrong.Aditi Sapate wrote: ↑10 Aug 2019, 08:58 More often than not, yes. I do try to think from the protagonist's point of view. Even if they make a wrong choice I sometimes find myself making excuses for them. When the book finally ends is when I start getting my rationality back.

Yes. Whenever I'm reading, I imagine myself in place of my favourite female character. It could be the MC or the supporting character. I can't get into a book if I can't relate to any of the characters.Thokchom Alice wrote: ↑27 Oct 2018, 11:13 While reading a story, I sometimes become one with the protagonist. I am totally absorbed and carried away by the story. Does it ever happen to you?
