When you got lost inside a book...

Have you ever read a book where you got so lost in it that you had to be roused back by someone or when you did come back to reality you had a feeling of being disoriented.

Lots. The most visceral experience though was when I was reading about Fred Weasley's death in Deathly Hallows- I was literally staring at the book, consumed with shock and disbelief- and I didn't answer lots of repeated calls from my family who were calling me for dinner. in the end, my sister came and snatched it off.

I personally get very involved in books. Sometimes when I read, depending on how much I like the book, I don't realize someone's been calling my name until it goes quiet and everyone's looking at me. I feel like the entire world has gone away and all that exists is the characters on the page and their story. And if the book doesn't end the way I expected/wanted/or should have, I get upset, yeah, and *sometimes* I rant, especially if the book or characters deserved a better ending. I hope that's the kind of thing I'm sure you're talking about.

For me it always depends on the book.

Well all bookworms have this problem...my family and friends say that I will faint if I keep reading like that yet I can't help myself...getting lost in a book is an altogether different experience, almost surreal... I get lost in any book I find interesting ,most recently the storyteller by jodi picoult

A lot! And I love that. I really am blown away when something like that happens. Though, the book really needs to be brilliant.

Yup Lot many times... Specially while travelling..😊
Cant mention a specific book.. but every good read

way more often than not ! 

Last chapters of most Agatha Christies where the killer is unmasked...
