Ok so question for the masses…

When you read a book do you follow along with your brain in images … like watching a movie in your head as you are reading?


If you DONT do this… what do you do?


Do you read along as an inner monologue in your own voice like an audiobook?

Do you see the words in your brain like text bubbles?

My brain is really good at coming up with images for buildings, landscapes, items... more static things as I'm reading. People tend to be more abstract in my head, and generally faceless. Dialogue runs like an inner monologue, which kind of sucks because my brain doesn't have different voices. So it's just me talking to me. A little bit like that scene in "Being John Malkovich" where John Malkovich goes into his own head and everyone looks and talks like him, only saying "Malkovich" over and over.

I also read somewhere that people picture themselves as the characters… so unless a character is described with race or with physical features you tend to make the people like you… so white people read characters as white so then when they make a movie or something it tends to be less good in peoples minds.

I do the reading with images thing. Works best when the author is good at describing scenes and charactors.

Probably true. Unless it's a book where race is an explicit part of the plot, I tend to assume white for most characters. I don't get mad when someone who isn't white is cast for a role - especially for fictional characters - but I know plenty of folks on FB who do.

Facebook (and all other social media) comment sections are like the worst of society

If a book is good enough, they'll make a movie out of it.

And the movie is always better than the book. Right, people? RIGHT?

So why bother reading when you can just watch it?

ummm....no. I have noticed in some Stephen King movies they kind of water down the endings. Like Thinner. The ending of the book was much more tragic than in the movie.

Book covers. So... all the Harry Potter children were animated just like the American covers in my head. Even though I saw the first two movies before reading... still cartoons in my brain.
