do you imagine the scenes when you reading a fantasy novel?

Not just for fantasy, but I'll imagine the scenes for any books that I read (story books and novels, I can't make scene for business and math book unless it's showing number and such) That's the joy of reading, we can picture it ourselves and be in our own world.

I always imagine things in my head.Whenever I read new books or books I always put myself as the main character.haha,its very funny because I sometimes end up crying because of the sad story.lol:D Ive been stuck in some stories and sometimes I even imagine that it is happening in real life,hahaha,I dont know but I feel like im stupid sometimes because I talk to myslef and then laugh in a moment.Having this kind of imagination is really fun but sometimes Im bothered that people might think Im crazy.lol

I never read anymore since graduating high school. I did try to imagine scenes when reading though.

i would guess if you are going to really enjoy a novel you have to imagine the scenes that you are reading though some books lose a little when they get made into movies because they dont always stick to the same story as you are reading. editing out some parts you probably enjoyed reading then you don't see it in the movie. if im reading a book i would try to imagine it as if what i was reading i could see too. its always more fun when we use our imagination.

When i read the twilight series i had a complete visual of everything in that book. I had what every character looked like & what their houses & everything looked like in my head. I guess i do visualize things when the book is well written.

Yes I completely agree with you... My first novel was Harry Potter and while reading I used to create the situations in my mind...and get the scenes... Actually I had watched the 2nd part of movie before reading the series So whenever the characters in the books come I used to think about the characters in the movie and correspond to the situation I was readin with....Kinda funny na... According to researchers our mind has an average of 60,000 thoughts a day and no doubt these imaginative visions are a part of it.... But the most cold bone experience was when I was reading The DaVinci Code by Dan Brown....oh God!!! now also when I think about it my body hairs stand straight....Superb presentation..... ~Cheerio~

That is the number one thing about books over movies - you get to use YOUR imagination and not the director's. I can't imagine reading any fiction without any visualization to it. Otherwise it's just words.

Usually I try to visualize as long as it's an understandable description. Its funny because sometimes if its a book that later becomes a movie, the movie version always turns out looking 100x better than what I imagined in the book. It happened to me with "The Lost World: Jurassic Park". Weird.

No matter what book I am reading, I imagine the characters and scenes. I think that it what makes a book even better than a movie.

Yeah I imagine the scenes when I'm reading a fiction novel because I'm just usually really focused in on what I'm reading. It's great having your imagination run wild while you're reading a really great book. One of my favorites to do that with was Neuromancer by William Gibson.

No , I don't do this type of thing but at last seen comes in mind automaticall if description provided by author is complete and according to situation as well.

I have the same feeling,yes,i like reading novels,that's my pastime,and i alway imagine the novel scenes,that even can make me cry,laugh and sad.

yes i just finished the entire twilight series and boy did i imagine i was bella. i have a big thing for vampires and the writer is so detailed its hard not to imagine yourself as being a part of the book.
