If you read a book that's fiction and you get caught in the characters and the plot, and swept away, really, by the fiction of it - by the non-reality - you sometimes wind up changing your reality as well. Often, when the last page is turned, it will haunt you.

Summary

This quote emphasizes the profound impact that fiction can have on a reader. When engrossed in a book, readers become deeply connected to the characters and the storyline to the point where it transports them away from reality. This immersive experience can be so powerful that it influences their perception of the real world. Even after finishing the book, its lingering effect continues to resonate within, leaving a lasting impression that may linger and affect their thoughts or actions.
